Our read on MOOD

ETF.net Research

CMost tactical funds chase price. MOOD chases the gap between what institutions are positioned for and what retail is, then shifts across stocks, bonds and gold accordingly. A sentiment engine in a multi-asset wrapper.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks capital appreciation by tactically allocating among ETFs and exchange-traded products covering equities, fixed income, commodities, including gold, and currencies.

Why people hold it

  1. 01It leans toward assets institutions favor more than retail investors do, averaging four relative sentiment indicators scaled from 0% (extreme bearishness) to 100% (extreme bullishness).alphaarchitect.com
  2. 02At 0.73%, it costs less than the typical fund in its tactical allocation group, where the median sits at 0.95%.
  3. 03One ticker, many levers: broad equity ETFs, broad bond ETFs, plus gold, commodity and currency products when the signals point that way.alphaarchitect.com
  4. 04Stands in the upper tier of the tactical multi-asset funds we cover, helped by pricing below the group median.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Launched in 2022 and built on proprietary signals, so the record is short and you cannot reverse-engineer the calls from the filings.alphaarchitect.com
  2. 02Thinly traded, so limit orders matter more here than with a mega-cap index fund.
  3. 03Cheaper than its group median, but several highly rated peers (ENDW, ONOF, GMOD) charge less.
