Making its debut on 07/24/2000, smart beta exchange traded fund iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (IUSG) provides investors broad exposure to the Style Box - All Cap Growth category of the market.

iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF implements a systematic strategy based on six valuation and growth metrics. Like most large-cap growth funds, the IUSG ETF is overweight in technology and in its top holdings. Quality metrics are attractive, yet IUSG has underperformed popular growth funds over the last 10 years.

For investors seeking momentum, iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF IUSG is probably on the radar. The fund just hit a 52-week high and is up 39% from its 52-week low of $81.93 per share.

Many ETFs in the growth space are hitting new highs. This is because growth funds generally tend to outperform during an uptrend.

A smart beta exchange traded fund, the iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF (IUSG) debuted on 07/24/2000, and offers broad exposure to the Style Box - All Cap Growth category of the market.

iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF is a growth-focused ETF holding close to 500 growth stocks, including big tech companies. The fund's performance this year has been driven by multiple expansion rather than earnings growth, raising concerns about valuations. Apple and Microsoft, the top holdings of IUSG, have seen significant stock performance from P/E expansion rather than earnings growth.

The IUSG ETF offers low-cost exposure to a broad range of U.S. growth stocks and has outperformed the S&P 500 Index over the past decade. However, the fund's portfolio is heavily concentrated at the top and has significant exposure to the technology sector, which could amplify potential gains and losses.

iShares Core S&P U.S. Value ETF and iShares Core S&P U.S. Growth ETF are supposed to represent different areas of the market but overlap on some unexpected names. The ETFs may not accurately reflect what is expected, with some growth names included in the value-oriented portfolio and vice versa, potentially distorting the picture of what should be represented. The ETFs offer diversified portfolios with low expense ratios of 0.04% and may still produce strong results over the long term.
