At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +24.20% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through April 1, 2024. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations. Zacks may license the Zacks Mutual Fund rating provided herein to third parties, including but not limited to the issuer.

For investors looking for momentum, Invesco S&P 500 Downside Hedged ETF (PHDG - Free Report) is probably a suitable pick. The fund just hit a 52-week high by gaining 17.7% from its 52-week low price of $32.27/share.
Let’s take a look at the fund and its near-term outlook to gain an insight into where it might be headed:
PHDG in Focus
The Invesco S&P 500 Downside Hedged ETF seeks to achieve positive total returns in rising or falling markets that are not directly correlated to broad equity or fixed-income market returns. PHDG seeks to achieve its investment objective by using a quantitative, rules-based strategy that seeks to obtain returns that exceed the S&P 500 Dynamic VEQTOR Index. Invesco S&P 500 Downside Hedged ETF has AUM of $295.5 million and charges 40 basis points in annual fees.
Why the Move?
The mood in Wall Street grew tense on the first trading day of December. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s confirmation that the first case of omicron has been detected in the United States in California led to the new wave of worries. The variant was first detected in South Africaand has numerous mutations (more than 30) to the spike protein (as stated in a CNBC article). The coronavirus outbreak is aggravating in some parts of Europe largely due to the cold weather conditions. Various measures are being taken to curtail the spread, which can again impact the economic recovery achieved so far from the pandemic-led slump. This is making funds like PHDG an impressive investment option.
More Gains Ahead?
It seems like Invesco S&P 500 Downside Hedged ETF will remain strong, with a positive weighted alpha of 15.30, which gives cues of a further rally.
