Strategy Q&A

Pre-generated questions and answers about this strategy.

  • momentum13FChat AI

    Did the momentum screen improve returns enough to justify drawdown, concentration, and turnover?

    The momentum result shows return 1.90%, alpha -7.00%, beta 0.74, Sharpe 0.19, Sortino 0.26, and max drawdown -38.97%. Versus baseline, annualized return changed by -2.29%, alpha changed by -1.28%, Sharpe changed by -0.11, Sortino changed by -0.13, drawdown worsened by 0.46%. Average recent turnover is about 74.18%, and concentration is top 5 82.38%, top 10 100.00%, top 20 100.00%, so any return improvement should be tested against trading cost and crowded-winner reversal risk.

    Did the momentum screen concentrate exposure in a few winners or sectors?

    The current momentum book has top 5 82.38%, top 10 100.00%, top 20 100.00% and sector exposure of Real Estate 100.00%. Its leading holdings are WELL (Welltower Inc.) 20.00%, EQIX (Equinix, Inc.) 20.00%, DLR (Digital Realty Trust, Inc.) 14.77%, and PSA (Public Storage) 14.33%, so the user should decide whether this is diversified momentum or a concentrated bet on a small group of recent winners.

    Which names did the momentum screen keep for XLRE | S&P 500 Real Estate Sector ETF, and what tilt does that create?

    The momentum screen currently emphasizes WELL (Welltower Inc.) 20.00%, EQIX (Equinix, Inc.) 20.00%, DLR (Digital Realty Trust, Inc.) 14.77%, PSA (Public Storage) 14.33%, and IRM (Iron Mountain Incorporated) 13.28%. It still overlaps the baseline through DLR, EQIX, PSA, WELL, while sector exposure is Real Estate 100.00%. That makes the result a momentum-tilted subset rather than a simple copy of the baseline weights.
