End-of-day data from EODHD. Click a column heading to sort. Assets = net assets; 1Y return is total return including distributions; yield is the trailing 12-month distribution yield.

How this list is built

  • Fund name refers to small-cap or micro-cap stocks, the Russell 2000 or the S&P SmallCap 600
  • Asset class: US stocks; standard (not leveraged, inverse or option-based) funds
  • Ranked by net assets

Small-cap ETFs hold hundreds or thousands of smaller US companies in one fund. The two most followed indexes are the Russell 2000, the smallest two-thirds of the Russell 3000, and the S&P SmallCap 600, which also requires companies to be profitable before they join.

Many small-cap funds also come in growth and value versions. Leveraged and inverse small-cap funds are not included here; see the ETF screener for those.

Want to refine this list? Open it in the ETF screener and add filters for valuation, dividends, performance and more.
