FlexShares Morningstar U.S. Market Factor Tilt Index ETF (NYSEArca: TILT)
YTD Gain: 28.8%
Comment: TILT is a broader market ETF success story. At just over two years old, the fund has $437.1 million in assets. TILT falls into “smart beta” category as it eschews cap-weighting in favor of bias toward small-caps and value names. The approach is working as TILT has surged 65% since inception.
