Well, it’s Friday, and for a change of pace, I’ve decided to tackle more of a “big picture” issue by looking at the unusual options activity for the Russell 2000 iShares ETF (IWM).
The IWM tracks the performance of the Russell 2000 Index, a collection of 2,000 small-cap stocks. As the FTSE Russell website states, these are “true” smaller companies, not mid-caps masquerading as small caps.
