Working with the US Small Cap 2000 (Russell) series
The Russell 2000 is the US small-cap benchmark, and its modern data tells an unfashionable story: after its November 2021 peak it went roughly three years without a new high while megacap indices compounded — the widest small-versus-large divergence in decades. Its constituents carry far more floating-rate debt than the S&P's, making it the most rate-sensitive US equity index. As a cash-index CFD it excludes dividends; small-cap yield makes that gap material over long horizons.
