Fund Details
Investment Thesis
Momentum is the most stubborn anomaly in finance — decades of data across every market show recent winners outperforming, in defiance of theory. MTUM harvests it mechanically, reshuffling into whatever has led the past 6-12 months. The known cost is the turn: when leadership rotates violently (2009, 2023), momentum crashes hard before reloading. Its +27.7% year reflects a portfolio that rode the AI winners with discipline no human stock-picker matches.
Who It's For
Factor investors who want systematic trend exposure without chart-watching, and who can stomach the strategy's characteristic whipsaw when regimes change. Pairs well with value funds, whose cycles are naturally opposite.
