Small-cap stocks are gaining momentum following a period of negative pricing, as evidenced by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF's recent uptick. Anticipation of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, possibly starting at the next meeting, has traders boosting their bets, which could significantly benefit small-cap stocks by reducing borrowing costs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted at a possible de-escalation of trade tensions with China, further supporting this positive outlook. Stocks like Root have seen notable gains, signaling a rebound in small-cap market performance.
