The period from 2021 to 2024 proved challenging for European small-cap stocks. Amid a prolonged phase of tight monetary policy in the eurozone and underperformance relative to the U.S., investors largely overlooked the Old World's smaller companies. Over that period, the MSCI Europe Small Cap index rose just 2.6%, including a nearly 27% drop in 2022. By comparison, the iShares STOXX Europe 600 UCITS ETF gained 39.7%, while the MSCI World index advanced 46.0%.

In July, investor attention shifted away from tech giants and AI toward small-cap stocks that had long lingered in the shadow of Big Tech. Since the start of July, the Russell 2000 index has climbed 3.8%. By comparison, the S&amp;P 500 has gained 3.0%, the Nasdaq Composite 4.0%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average 1.7%, according to FactSet data. The outperformance suggests a broader market rotation is underway: from high-valuation tech names to more economically sensitive sectors.
