IWB: Current Risks And Market Valuation Are A Problem

IWB mirrors the broad US market, with tech-heavy exposure and no unique drivers, making it sensitive to macroeconomic trends.

IWB: Outperformance Expected Through 2026

IWB offers diversification with 1,000 largest U.S. stocks, but has slightly underperformed the S&P 500 due to lower tech exposure. A new rate decline cycle could favor IWB, potentially outperforming the S&P 500 in 2025 and 2026 due to higher mid-cap and small-cap exposure. IWB's forward P/E ratio of 20.8x is higher than pre-pandemic levels but lower than the pandemic peak, making it not cheap but reasonably valued.
