IMTM: Signs Of Growth Rebound Support Momentum Factor
iShares MSCI Intl Momentum Factor ETF (IMTM) offers ex-US momentum exposure but closely tracks broader international indices like IXUS. IMTM is overweight financials and industrials, making it highly sensitive to macroeconomic trends in countries like Japan, Canada, and Europe. Recent US growth prospects and rate decisions provide a near-term rally force for global markets, yet USD hedge value has diminished and sectoral differentiation is minor.
IMTM: International Equities With Momentum
With the U.S. dollar weakening, one can consider international assets, especially equities, for diversification and currency tailwinds. IMTM offers exposure to developed international stocks with a momentum factor, avoiding U.S. equities and providing broad geographic diversification. IMTM has outperformed the popular VEA ETF over the past year, delivering higher returns and lower volatility, as shown by its superior Sharpe ratio.
Momentum ETFs Climb Higher in 2025
In the one-year period ended June 2025, the S&P 500 Momentum Index rose 30%, essentially double the gain of the S&P 500. Momentum was the best-performing factor of the widely tracked benchmark, ahead of growth, free cash flow, and even high beta slices.
