SPMO in Focus

Invesco S&P 500 Momentum ETF measures the performance of stocks in the S&P 500 Index that have a high "momentum score.” It charges 13 bps in annual fees (see: all the Large-Cap Growth ETFs here).

Why the Move?

The momentum corner of the broad investing world has been an area to watch lately, given the rise in the stock market. Momentum investing is an investment strategy that aims to capitalize on the continuance of an existing market trend. It involves the purchase of assets that have been showing an upward trend in price or selling assets that have been showing a downward trend, with the expectation that the trend will continue. As such, investors can potentially achieve high returns by buying stocks in an uptrend and selling them when they show signs of reversing.

More Gains Ahead?

SPMO might remain strong, given a weighted alpha of 8.70 and a higher 20-day volatility of 17.75%. There is definitely still some promise for investors who want to ride on this surging ETF.
