1 Under-the-Radar ETF to Invest $1,000 in Right Now That's Outperforming Major Indexes This Year

Published June 9, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

When most people think of major stock market indexes, their minds go to the S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite, or Dow Jones because they're the "Big 3." One index that often flies under the radar is the Russell 2000, which tracks the smallest 2,000 companies in the Russell 3000 index.

The Russell 2000 is to small-cap stocks what the S&P 500 is to large-cap stocks, and so far this year, ETFs like the Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF (NASDAQ: VTWO) have outperformed all of the "Big 3" indexes. If you have $1,000 available to invest, it could be a great addition to your portfolio for the long haul.
