Strategy Q&A

Pre-generated questions and answers about this strategy.

  • momentum13FChat AI

    Which names did the momentum screen keep for XLY | S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary Sector ETF, and what tilt does that create?

    The momentum screen currently emphasizes AMZN (Amazon.com, Inc.) 20.00%, SBUX (Starbucks Corporation) 9.78%, ORLY (O'Reilly Automotive, Inc.) 8.12%, MAR (Marriott International, Inc.) 8.09%, and ROST (Ross Stores, Inc.) 7.91%. It still overlaps the baseline through AMZN, MAR, ORLY, SBUX, while sector exposure is Consumer Discretionary 100.00%. That makes the result a momentum-tilted subset rather than a simple copy of the baseline weights.

    Which recent momentum periods most strongly shaped the result?

    The strongest recent period was 2026-01-31 (2.67% strategy return, -1.35% benchmark, 4.02% excess, 99.49% turnover), while the weakest was 2025-09-30 (-7.04% strategy return, 2.05% benchmark, -9.09% excess, 66.14% turnover). The latest rebalance shows AMZN decrease to 20.00%; SBUX increase to 9.78%; ORLY increase to 8.12%, which helps reveal whether the model is adding new winners or merely resizing existing leaders.
