PSCC: Growth Has Dried Up For This Small-Cap Consumer Staples ETF
PSCC holds the 25 Consumer Staples stocks in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. Its expense ratio is 0.29% and the ETF has $48 million in assets under management. Despite its unpopularity, PSCC has outperformed XLP, its large-cap counterpart, since its inception in April 2010.

Namely, PSCC's growth rates have dried up, and its margin of safety is much lower than XLP's due to mid-single-digit net and free cash flow margins.
