PSCI: SMID Industrials Are Likely To Trail IVV Amid Higher Rates

Invesco S&P SmallCap Industrials ETF faces underperformance risk due to weak growth and limited quality exposure, which is why I maintain the Hold rating. Compared to IVV, PSCI's portfolio of SMID names does not offer anything convincing in terms of earnings resilience, GARP metrics, and quality characteristics. I expect PSCI to potentially decline in single digits into 2027, given its vulnerability to the current high-rate environment and lack of earnings resilience.
