Aam Bahl & Gaynor Small/Mid Cap Income Growth ETF

SMIG is an actively managed fund that invests in US mid and small-cap companies that selects and weights securities based on the advisers assessment.

I'm a huge fan of the Bahl & Gaynor Small/Mid Cap Income Growth ETF, which combines small/mid-cap focus with dividend growth. SMIG's actively managed approach targets top-notch small and mid-cap companies with lasting competitive edges and strong income growth potential. The fund's concentrated portfolio and sector allocation in Industrials and Financials aim for steady dividends and capital appreciation.

SMIG: Solid Exposure To Small And Mid-Cap Holdings

The Bahl & Gaynor Small/Mid Cap Income Growth ETF offers strong dividend growth, making it a solid long-term investment despite its high expense ratio and low liquidity. SMIG's top holdings in financials, industrials, and consumer cyclicals sectors demonstrate impressive dividend growth rates, supporting the ETF's income-generating potential. Financials, industrials, and consumer cyclicals sectors are poised to perform well in a rate-cutting environment, providing stability and growth for SMIG investors.

SMIG: Long-Term Hold Only, Focus On Dividend Growth

SMIG leverages an active SMID echelon-focused equity strategy guided by the tenets of quality and dividend growth investing. SMIG has a minimalist, industrials-heavy portfolio with just 44 equity holdings, with most companies represented being large-caps. Quality-wise, it is meaningfully ahead of SCHM. There are benefits on the dividend factor front as well.
