SCHA: The Advantage Of Not Guessing The Next Small-Cap Winner

Schwab U.S. Small-Cap ETF is rated BUY for broad, low-cost exposure to 1,731 small-cap U.S. companies, avoiding factor or sector bets. SCHA's 0.03% expense ratio and 11% turnover make it an efficient, long-term allocation for investors seeking to complement large-cap holdings. The recent 36.39% one-year return signals renewed interest in small caps, but SCHA's thesis centers on potential capital appreciation, not income.
