IWM: iShares Russell 2000 ETF research
As of 09-25-2026
IWM shows a sharp negative 3m return of -5.71% and the worst RS vs SPY reading at -11.11%, signaling small caps are not participating in this risk-on rally. Financials, a key small-cap sector, are also flagged as lagging in the rotation read despite the sector-level overweight tag, creating a contradictory signal. Volatility is elevated at 18.7% with an 11% max drawdown, and the very thin top-10 weight of 3.2% offers no idiosyncratic support.
