IWO

The iShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF (IWO) holds publicly traded U.S. small‑cap stocks that exhibit growth characteristics, with the vast majority of its exposure concentrated in the United States and a sector tilt toward health‑care, information technology and industrials. It seeks to replicate the Russell 2000 Growth Index using a representative‑sampling, passively‑managed approach and is rebalanced periodically to match the index’s composition. This fund provides broad, diversified exposure to the U.S. small‑cap growth segment, making it suitable for investors who want to add higher‑growth, higher‑volatility equity exposure to a long‑term, diversified portfolio.
