Description: SMIN iShares MSCI India Small-Cap August 28, 2025
SMIN is a U.S.-registered exchange‑traded fund that tracks the MSCI India Small‑Cap Index, giving investors exposure to the most agile segment of the Indian equity market. Its price currently sits around $73, hovering just below the 20‑day moving average and marginally above the 200‑day trend, indicating short‑term consolidation within a longer‑term uptrend.
The fund’s beta of roughly 0.22 signals low correlation to broader market swings, making it a defensive tilt within emerging‑market allocations. With an average daily turnover near 180 k shares, liquidity is sufficient for institutional positioning while remaining modest enough to avoid excessive market impact.
Key performance indicators include an expense ratio near 0.25 %, assets under management exceeding $1 billion, and a dividend yield around 0.6 %—both typical for small‑cap exposure in India. Turnover is moderate (≈30 % annual), preserving portfolio stability while allowing timely rebalancing to capture the sector’s rapid growth cycles.
Fundamental drivers for SMIN’s underlying universe are India’s projected GDP expansion of 6‑7 % annually, robust domestic consumption, and ongoing fiscal reforms that favor small‑business financing. Urbanization, digital adoption, and government initiatives to boost rural incomes further amplify earnings potential for small‑cap firms, positioning the ETF to benefit from the country’s structural growth narrative.
