Our read on SCDS
BJPMorgan pairs human fundamental analysts with a data science engine to pick small caps, then spreads the calls across roughly 300 names. Active stock picking priced closer to a screened index fund.
The fund invests primarily in equity securities of small-cap companies and uses a fundamental data science-enabled investment approach.
Why people hold it
- Costs 0.40% a year, below the typical active US small-cap fund, so the stock picking starts from a lower hurdle.
- Roughly 300 holdings, so no single small-cap stumble sets the tone for the whole portfolio.
- Core mandate: the data science process hunts across the whole small-cap field instead of being boxed into value or growth.am.jpmorgan.com
- Lands in the upper half of the active US small-cap funds we review, with quarterly distributions.
Worth knowing
- Launched in 2024. The process hasn't been tested through a full market cycle yet.
- Small asset base and thin trading. Spreads can widen, so limit orders matter more here than with the household-name funds.
- Cheaper small-cap options sit in the same peer group, including JPMorgan's own rules-based JPSE at 0.29% and Avantis' AVSC at 0.25%.
