Intech S&P Small-Mid Cap Diversified Alpha ETF (SMDX)
Product Overview
Rethink small- and mid-cap market exposure. Intech S&P Small-Mid Cap Diversified Alpha ETF (SMDX) is designed to provide U.S. small- and mid-cap equity exposure with improved diversification and the potential for uncorrelated alpha—all while staying aligned with the trusted S&P 1000® Index.
The investment objective of the Intech S&P Small-Mid Cap Diversified Alpha ETF is to achieve long-term capital appreciation, combining small- and mid-cap stocks into a single ETF.
- Expands growth and diversification opportunities
- Provides exposure to companies as they scale and mature
- Seeks higher returns and lower volatility vs. small-cap-only ETFs
Indexing Was the Revolution. Intech is the Evolution.
Conventional ETFs follow the market, chase factors, or bet on stock picks. We take a different path. Intech ETFs use stock volatility as an input to construct diversified, systematically rebalanced portfolios for more efficient, risk-aware market exposure.
- Harness Volatility to Optimize Index Exposure
Intech ETFs embrace what others fear—volatility—to enhance index diversification and mitigate an over-reliance on stocks, sectors or factors, all while staying aligned with the trusted S&P® 1000 Index. - Access Returns Beyond Stock Selection
Many ETFs focus on stock picks, overlooking the broader role of portfolio dynamics—how volatility and correlations shape returns. Intech ETFs blend both insights, diversifying sources of alpha. - Unlock Uncorrelated Alpha Potential
Volatility is inevitable, so we use it with intent. To preserve optimized diversification, Intech ETFs systematically rebalance—seeking to turn natural price movements into uncorrelated returns.
