Our read on PYZ
CDorsey Wright's relative-strength playbook pointed at one aisle of the market: US basic materials. Roughly 40 names picked purely on momentum, reshuffled as leadership changes, running since 2006.
The fund normally invests at least 90% of its total assets in securities comprising its index. The index selects at least 30 Nasdaq US securities showing relative strength, or momentum.
Why people hold it
- Rules, not hunches. The index screens Nasdaq US materials stocks for relative strength and holds at least 30, so fading names get cycled out on a schedule.invesco.com
- Launched in 2006, a long run for a single-sector momentum fund. It has traded through multiple commodity cycles with the same technical framework.
- Narrow on purpose: about 40 stocks, with at least 90% of assets in index names. Miners, chemicals and packaging, undiluted by the rest of the market.
Worth knowing
- The 0.78% expense ratio sits above the median for its peer group, so the momentum screen has a higher bar to clear.
- One of the more thinly traded funds in its category, so bid-ask spreads can be wider than on headline sector ETFs.
- Momentum buys strength after it shows up, so the portfolio can turn late when materials leadership flips. With about 40 names, single stocks swing it.
