Which Small-Cap ETF Is the Better Buy: iShares' Growth-Focused IWO or Invesco's Revenue-Weighted RWJ?
Small-cap stocks are surging, but how you own them matters more than most investors realize.
Overview
The iShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF (NYSEMKT:IWO) provides broad, low-cost exposure to small-cap growth stocks, while the Invesco S&P SmallCap 600 Revenue ETF (NYSEMKT:RZG) uses a concentrated, revenue-weighted methodology.
Investors seeking the high-growth potential of smaller companies often compare these two funds. While both target the small-cap segment, their differing index strategies and portfolio densities create unique risk-reward profiles. This analysis examines how their costs, historical performance, and underlying holdings differ as of Aug. 10, 2026.
