Our read on STXK

ETF.net Research

In short

CStrive's swing at small caps: one ticker for roughly 600 smaller U.S. companies, tracking Bloomberg's US 2000 index for 0.18% a year, a hair under its peer group's median fee.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks to track the investment results of the Bloomberg US 2000 Index, representing U.S. small- and mid-capitalization equities.

Why people hold it

  • Charges 0.18% a year, under the 0.20% median for its peer group and well below the 0.30% on Janus Henderson's small/mid growth fund, JSMD.
  • Roughly 600 small- and mid-cap U.S. stocks in one line item, so the outcome rides on the smaller end of the market rather than a handful of names.
  • Simple, legible job: track the Bloomberg US 2000 and stay in U.S. equities. On mandate fidelity it lands in the upper half of its peer group.
  • Standard 1940 Act fund structure with quarterly distributions. No leverage, no derivatives wrapper, no options overlay to decode.

Worth knowing

  • Thinly traded, so bid/ask spreads can run wider than on the household-name small-cap funds.
  • Small and mid caps move harder in both directions than large-cap benchmarks. Bumpier ride is the price of admission here.
  • Launched in 2022 and still modest in size, so the track record is short next to the decades-old small-cap index funds.
