MTUM Needs To Be Part Of Your Strategy To Beat The Market
I recommend the iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF for its strong performance and risk management, outperforming the S&P 500 by 140 basis points annually. MTUM uses a robust methodology, including z-scores and market cap weighting, with quarterly rebalancing and a 0.15% expense ratio. Combining MTUM with Invesco's S&P 500 Quality ETF offers superior large-cap allocation, outperforming the S&P 500 in all market conditions.

MTUM Is A Mix Of SPMO And XMMO Factor-Based ETFs, But Less Efficient
MTUM, a momentum strategy-based ETF from BlackRock, invests in the top 125 large and mid-cap U.S. stocks with quarterly adjustments and additional filters. MTUM selects stocks from both large caps and mid caps, making it a more comprehensive solution compared to the traditional SPMO and XMMO. However, compared to SPMO and XMMO, MTUM has lower performance and a risk level that isn't significantly lower, making it less efficient.

MTUM: Right Strategy, Wrong Fund
Momentum strategies have excelled in 2024, driven by mega-cap stock rallies and unusual market conditions, though 2025 may see narrower outperformance. The iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF underperformed despite favorable conditions due to its methodology and stock selection criteria. MTUM's methodology includes mid-caps and uses a risk-adjusted momentum score, contrasting with the more concentrated and S&P 500-focused Invesco S&P 500 Momentum ETF.
