Glad that you are feeling better.
Something here for a Friday afternoon.
There has been increased attention on the small caps these
days as they have been outperforming. The best small/mid cap
ETF that I know of for the LT is:
XMMO
the midcap momentum ETF. Since launch in 2005, it has
approximately tripled the return of IWM. Interestingly, it
has also significantly outrun the SPY.
It has also bested both over the past 10 years. How
many US equity ETFs with no MAGS exposure have done that? I
guess it's a short list.
As it holds momentum names, it tends to trend, playing into
the hands of the KISS system. So perhaps it is worth setting
up a KISS [high-frequency] system for this little gem?
Something to help keep you from getting bored over the
weekend!
In the last 3 mo as small caps have come into favour, XMMO
has trailed IWM, but then again in this environment the microcaps
(IWC) did even better.
Hi Matt: Glad that you are

Looks like it's badly trailing IWM today however.
