1 Russell 2500® Growth Index offers investors access to the small to mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity universe, commonly referred to as "smid" cap. The Russell 2500 is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer for the small to mid-cap segment and is completely reconstituted annually to ensure larger stocks do not distort the performance and characteristics of the true small to mid-cap opportunity set. The Russell 2500 includes the smallest 2500 securities in the Russell 3000. Index results assume the reinvestment of dividends paid on the stocks constituting the index. You may not invest in the index. Unlike the Fund, the index does not incur fees or expenses.
