Homrich & Berg’s October 22, 2026, analysis linked the Russell 2000’s correction of more than 10% to rapidly rising bond yields.
Stabilizing yields could support a small-cap recovery; profitable stocks fell 6% since mid-August, versus a 15.2% decline for unprofitable companies.
Small-cap forward price-to-sales valuations stood 1.5 standard deviations below their average relative to the S&P 500 since 2001.
Expected Russell 2000 revenue growth averaged 7.2%, compared with the long-term average of 3.8% since 2013.
Utilities, industrials and real estate offered the cheapest valuations among predominantly profitable sectors, though utilities and real estate remain particularly rate-sensitive.
