The article discusses the advantages of exploring iShares ETFs for passive investment strategies, particularly for diversifying away from large-cap stocks. It emphasizes the importance of adjusting stock allocation to include small- and mid-cap equities, as many investors are currently heavy on large-cap assets. The piece highlights the Russell 2000 as a benchmark for small-cap stocks and points out its recent underperformance relative to the S&P 500.
