SCHA

The Schwab U.S. Small‑Cap ETF (SCHA) invests nearly all of its assets in equities that are constituents of the Dow Jones U.S. Small‑Cap Total Stock Market Index, providing broad exposure to roughly 1,750 small‑cap companies headquartered in the United States across all sectors, with notable weightings in financials, health care, industrials and information technology. Its investment approach is passive, using a float‑adjusted market‑capitalization weighting to track the index’s total return before fees and expenses, and it typically holds the stocks of the index in a diversified portfolio. This ETF is suitable for investors who want a core, low‑cost way to add U.S. small‑cap equity exposure to a long‑term portfolio and who are comfortable with the higher volatility that smaller companies can entail.
