In this episode of "What's the Risk" we take a look at the Fama French US Small Value Research Index. It is a research index from the Fama/French model that tracks the performance of small-cap stocks with low price-to-book ratios.
While over the long term, the small/value factor has shown outstanding performance, in recent years it has underperformed. Many people have said these factors have had their day, but this isn't the first time small/value has underperformed against larger growth counterparts, and for investors who want to tilt their portfolio to target higher expected returns, this is a lesson in risk. Factors are not going to always perform as you wish, and they have historically required patience and discipline to capture.
The index was created by academics Eugene Fama and Kenneth French and is designed to isolate and measure the "value" and "size" factors in stock market returns.
