FNY: Dynamic Mid Cap Growth ETF Designed To Pick Low Quality Stocks

FNY is a mid-cap growth fund that selects 225 securities with strong growth characteristics and weak value features. Its expense ratio is 0.70% and FNY has $428 million in AUM. A return on assets is counted as a value screen, and as a result, FNY's Index systematically excludes these high-quality stocks. I view this as a serious flaw. However, there's no denying that FNY's growth features are terrific. I calculated 14.34% and 19.39% one-year estimated sales and earnings growth rates. Its 25.02x forward P/E ratio is also solid.
