Foolish takeWhile most ETFs track an underlying benchmark such as an index, the Distillate Small/Mid Cash Flow ETF is an actively managed fund.

Moreover, the Distillate Small/Mid Cash Flow ETF invests only in small-and mid-cap stocks, which tend to be more volatile.
As of May 27, 2025, the Fund considered companies whose market capitalization was in the “lowest 10% of the total market capitalization of the U.
Equity market,” or below or equal to around $12 billion.
