The iShares Dow Jones U.S. Financial Services Index Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance before fees and expenses of the financial-services sector of the U.S. equity market as represented by the Dow Jones U.S. Financial Services Index.
iShares U.S. Financial Services ETF trades on the ARCA stock market under the symbol IYG.
As of August 28, 2026, IYG stock price climbed to $97.81 with 50,172 million shares trading.
IYG has a beta of 0.73, meaning it tends to be less sensitive to market movements. IYG has a correlation of 0.38 to the broad based SPY ETF.
IYG has a market cap of $2.23 billion. This is considered a Mid Cap stock.
In the last 3 years, IYG traded as high as $98.40 and as low as $48.21.
IYG has underperformed the market in the last year with a return of +10.3%, while SPY returned +19.7%. This shows that you would have done better investing in the overall market (through SPY) over the last year than in IYG shares. However, IYG has outperformed the market in the last 3 month and 2 week periods, returning +13.1% and -0.3%, while SPY returned +2.2% and -0.9%, respectively. This indicates IYG has been having a stronger performance recently.
IYG support price is $96.76 and resistance is $98.18 (based on 1 day standard deviation move). This means that using the most recent 20 day stock volatility and applying a one standard deviation move around the stock's closing price, stastically there is a 67% probability that IYG shares will trade within this expected range on the day.
