Description: FSMD Fidelity Small-Mid Factor

FSMD is a passively managed ETF that seeks to track the Fidelity Small-Mid Multifactor Index, investing at least 80% of its assets in small- and mid-cap U.S. companies that screen well across four factor characteristics: attractive valuations, high quality fundamentals, positive price momentum, and lower volatility than the broader market.

The fund uses a multifactor or smart-beta approach, which combines multiple investment styles into a single rules-based strategy rather than relying on a traditional market-cap-weighted index. Its performance benchmark is the Fidelity U.S. Extended Investable Market Index, which represents a broader universe of U.S. stocks.

FSMD launched in February 2019 and is classified within the Small Blend category, meaning it targets companies that fall between small- and mid-cap sizes with a blend of growth and value characteristics.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Small-mid cap valuations trade at steep discount to large caps
  • Fed rate cuts ease borrowing costs for smaller firms
  • Value and quality factor rotation accelerates fund inflows
