On a quarterly basis, we provide an update on our Sector Selection Research Model. Read on to learn more about recent US, Europe and World sector allocations based on price, macroeconomic and fundamental factors.
Below readers can find commentary on the key changes to our Sector Selection Research Model (SSRM) across US, Europe and World sectors. This is done as an update to the thought leadership piece we published on Sector Rotation: Can the Approach Work in Different Countries?
As a reminder, the SSRM deploys a rule-based, sector rotation approach that targets the most relatively attractive sectors using a blend of price, macroeconomic and fundamental factors. The importance of these selection factors is captured in the dynamic weighting scheme of the research model.
Furthermore, the model provides for a mechanism that ensures risk is controlled and opportunities arising from dispersion are seized. In all, the approach comprises two major steps: sector selection and sector weighting.

ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk and will fluctuate in market value. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate in value, so that when shares are sold or redeemed, they may be worth more or less than when they were purchased. Although shares may be bought or sold on an exchange through any brokerage account, shares are not individually redeemable from the fund. Investors may acquire shares and tender them for redemption through the fund in large aggregations known as “creation units.” Please see the fund’s prospectus for more details.
Past Performance is not a guarantee of future results.
