FSGS - How U.S. Small-Cap Stocks Can Overcome The Market Stress Test

Summary
- Small-caps have suffered in early 2025, but increased market breadth could support a recovery.
- While tariffs and trade-policy uncertainty have likely slowed economic growth, the US economy is entering this period from a position of relative strength, with unemployment and inflation still low.
- While broadening markets have witnessed greater small-cap returns, timing the turn can be challenging.
- Because the small-cap market is so vast, we believe investors should rely on active managers to navigate today’s market uncertainty.
