FYC holds 262 small-cap growth stocks selected based on three short-term screens: price momentum, sales to price ratio, and one-year sales growth. Its expense ratio is high at 0.70%. While these screens are mostly momentum-based, FYC features an attractive 19.87% estimated EPS growth while trading at just 18.14x forward earnings. Importantly, it's also well-diversified. There are risks that FYC is borderline speculative. It holds many non-profitable biotechnology stocks, and its low asset turnover ratio indicates a relatively inefficient use of assets to generate sales.
