You Have Access To 54 Different Trend Analytics Every Week on Each ETF

We harness the power of data analytics and raw computing power to crunch millions of computations each week to generate trend rankings of 154 ETFs that we think are a holistic representation of most stock market investment options.

Key to our trend analysis is:

  • Absolute Trend Strength – this measures the individual trend data on a specific ETF to determine the strength, velocity and direction of its trend
  • Relative Trend Strength – this measures the ETF trend strength in relation to the broad stock market trend to determine if the individual ETF trend direction, strength and velocity is greater than, or less than the market average.
  • Power Score – this is the overall measure of combined absolute and relative trend and momentum strength for an ETF.
  • Edge Score – this measures weekly change in Power score rankings so you can see if ETF trend strength is rising or falling.
  • Alike Score – this measures how correlated the ETF trend is to the broad stock market trend.  A well diversified portfolio will have ETFs with a range of Alike Scores.

 

We Stack and Rank ETF Trend
Performance Weekly into Quintiles

We use quintiles to simplify analysis and “chunk” the performance list into 5 equal segments. 

The 1st Quintile represents the top 20%, and each subsequent quintile represents the next 20% of performance results.  

We also color-code the quintiles for easy reference.

  • Green Zones – the top 2 quintiles are shaded two tones of green and represent ETF sectors and asset classes that are outperforming the market.  This is where you want to be investing.
  • Yellow Zone – the 3rd quintile is the market average group and is performing about the same as the stock market index.
  • Red Zones – the bottom 2 quintiles are shaded two tones of red and represent ETF sectors that are under performing the market index.  You want to avoid these sectors.
  • Easy to follow – “at-a-glance” you instantly know what sectors to invest in and what sectors to avoid with our simple color-coded trend rankings.
  • Long term focus – the data points we compute focus on the long-term, you only need to review every few weeks or month to stay on top of everything.

 

Our Asset Class Heat map Ranks Sub-Asset Categories by Trend Strength

We have divided our investment universe of 154 ETFs into 9 major asset categories, with each category ranked in descending order of trend strength to help you create a well diversified portfolio of non-correlated asset leaders.    This data view helps:

  • Limit correlation risk – viewing market leaders across each asset class helps reduce correlation risk and build a more diversified portfolio
  • Strategic asset allocation – with fixed allocation targets for various asset classes it is easy to re-balance portfolios into new leaders within the same asset class
  • Tactical asset allocation – having the flexibility to deviate from fixed allocations allows the opportunity to take advantage of short-term market opportunities
  • Dynamic asset allocation – having a broad allocation strategy allows for capitalization on extreme market opportunities and leadership concentration
  • Portfolio re-balancing – viewing market leaders by asset class allows for easy upgrading while still remaining within the same asset category
