In this episode of “What’s the Risk?” we take a look at the historic performance of the Solactive Australia 200 Index, which some investors may know is tracked by Betashares A200 ETF.
At the end of 2024, the index itself doesn’t have a long history, just over 14 years, so while we look at its recent performance, which is similar to an S&P/ASX 200 tracker, we specifically look at the gap in performance between the 200 largest companies and the 300 largest companies in Australia.
Larger companies tend to do better in Australia, which leaves question marks over the small cap effect, but Peter has some theories on the underperformance.
