Amundi Russell 2000 UCITS ETF - EUR (C)

Amundi Russell 2000 UCITS ETF - EUR (C) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Amundi, traded under the ticker RS2K (ISIN LU1681038672). It lets you buy a basket of holdings in a single trade, spreading your money across them rather than one company. In plain terms it is about owning small slices of companies, so you share in their growth when they do well — and their falls when they don't, spread across its target market. It follows the Russell 2000 Net 30% Total Ret index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include MOOG INC-CL A, BRIGHTSPRING HEALTH SERVICES and CYTOKINETICS INC. By geography it is weighted towards ~100% United States. By industry it concentrates most in ~20.4% Health Care and ~19% Financials. It is commonly used to tilt a portfolio towards one market, usually alongside broader, more global funds rather than on its own. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.35% a year — about €35 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. It is an accumulating share class: dividends are rolled straight back in, compounding your returns rather than landing in your account as cash. It tracks its index through a swap agreement rather than owning every holding (synthetic replication); it is domiciled in Luxembourg and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in EUR. Its price has swung about 18.4% over the past year, which describes how much its price tends to move rather than whether it is good. It launched in 2018. Like any investment, it can lose value as well as gain, and what it did before does not predict what it will do next. (Fund data sourced from Amundi.)
