5 Momentum ETFs That Offer Value
Wall Street has been in decent shape in recent weeks on strong corporate earnings reports, slower-than-expected future Fed rate hikes and a bet that markets have reached a bottom. Stocks in the United States and Europe had their biggest monthly increase since November 2020 (read: Stocks' Best Month Since 2020: Top ETF Areas of July).
Investors' hope that slowing inflation and slowing growth may keep the Fed to ease plans to push up interest rates boosted equities throughout the month. Cheaper valuation after a downbeat first-half also aided equities.
The S&P 500, the Dow Jones, the Nasdaq Composite and the Russell 2000 added 8%, 5.6%, 11.4% and 9.1%, respectively in July (as of Jul 29, 2022). Some earnings came in upbeat to close out the month. Amazon.com Inc. and Apple Inc. both beat revenues estimates. In July, Amazon shares gained 27%, marking their biggest monthly rally since October 2009.
The rally in Wall Street came despite 41-year high inflation, GDP contraction for the second-straight quarter and yet another Fed rate hike worth 0.75%. Against this backdrop, investors can rely on high momentum investing. While the past movement of the price of a stock cannot be used to predict its future movement, history shows that recent past performance can be a pretty good predictor of short-term future performance.
The momentum effect, which refers to the tendency of winning stocks to keep winning, has been documented in many academic studies. Enthusiastic investors love to bet bigger on high fliers, even ignoring fundamentals at times. With investors' optimism at its peak, we would like to note that the following momentum ETFs maybe tapped now.
Momentum investing might be an intriguing idea for those seeking higher returns in a short spell. It looks to reflect profits from buying stocks that are sizzling on the market. But looking at value is necessary now, given still-present inflationary threats.
