For investors seeking momentum, the First Eagle Global Equity ETF (FEGE Quick QuoteFEGE - Free Report) is probably on the radar now. The fund just hit a 52-week high and rose 27.8% from its 52-week low price of $41.81 per share.   

But are there more gains in store for this ETF? Let us take a quick look at the fund and its near-term outlook to get a better sense of where it might head.

FEGE in Focus

The fund seeks long-term capital growth by investing primarily in equities in the United States and around the world. The fund charges 50 basis points (bps) in annual fees (See: all Global Large-Cap Blend ETFs here).

What Led to the Rise?

The fund’s recent 52-week high was likely driven by a market-wide rotation out of high-valuation tech and into defensive value assets. Combined with its value-oriented, flexible global mandate, the fund must have attracted capital looking for steady growth, capital preservation, and resilience against persistent macroeconomic and yield uncertainty, thereby leading to its 52-week peak.

More Gains Ahead?

FEGE may continue its strong performance in the near term, with a positive weighted alpha of 26.15 (per Barchart.com), which suggests a rally.
