I'm maintaining my buy on SPMO. I'm bullish through year-end and still see the S&P 500 at or above 8,500, with the fund's own earnings growth carrying it. SPMO's look-through forward P/E of 17.3x reads cheaper than SPY's 20.2x. Strip Micron, and it jumps to 21.7x. Strip the memory names, and it hits 22.7x. Micron is roughly 10% of the fund and sits mid-supercycle. That one weight drags the portfolio multiple down and pulls the earnings growth line up.
Momentum has emerged as one of the strongest-performing equity factors this year. As investors continue rewarding companies with sustained relative strength despite persistent macroeconomic uncertainty, ETFs such as the Invesco S&P 500 Momentum ETF (SPMO) are drawing investors' attention.
It shouldn't be possible to outperform the S&P 500 time and time again without getting hit by downturns as hard.

The company described appears to be focused on investment management, specifically through a fund that aims to mirror the performance of a momentum-based index. This investment strategy hinges on the momentum factor, which is predicated on the belief that stocks that have shown better performance in the recent past are likely to continue performing well in the near future. The fund commits to investing at least 90% of its total assets in the securities included in the underlying index, which consists of approximately 100 stocks from the S&P 500® Index selected for their high momentum scores. However, it is noted that the fund is non-diversified, implying that it concentrates its investments in a relatively small number of securities, which can lead to greater volatility in its performance.
This product is an investment fund that strategically allocates its assets to stocks selected for their high momentum scores, as defined by their recent performance history. The fund targets stocks within the S&P 500® Index, aiming to replicate the performance of an underlying momentum index. This investment approach leans on the theory that stocks which have performed well recently are likelier to continue their outperformance in the short to medium term. The fund's strategy involves a high degree of focus on a subset of around 100 stocks, reflecting its commitment to momentum investing. It is noteworthy that this product is non-diversified, indicating a concentration in these momentum-picked securities which might result in higher volatility compared to more diversified investments.
