The iShares Russell 1000 ETF offers broad U.S. market exposure but is nearly identical to IVV with a tech-heavy allocation but higher expenses. Rising capital costs associated with heightened geopolitical uncertainty, especially from ongoing Middle East conflicts, are a major risk to high-multiple stocks. High multiples in IWB's megacap tech holdings are vulnerable to rising discount rates.
