About this ETF
Employing a systematic, quantitative framework, the advisor identifies U.S. equities exhibiting robust recent performance. The fund's holdings form a broadly diversified portfolio, spanning various market capitalizations (large, mid, and small), sectors, and industry groups. Its primary objective is to achieve significant long-term capital appreciation. Generally, a minimum of 80% of the fund's assets are allocated to securities issued by U.S. companies. The fund specifically defines its 'Momentum' factor based on total returns over the periods of month T-12 to T-1 and month T-7 to T-1, in addition to the intercept value from a one-year regression comparing individual stock returns to their regional benchmark.

Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
