DWASBInvesco Dorsey Wright SmallCap Momentum ETF

JMOMAJPMorgan U.S. Momentum Factor ETF

In short

DWAS Momentum, but downmarket. Most factor funds hunt winners inside the S&P 500; DWAS points Dorsey Wright's relative-strength screen at small caps instead, holding roughly 200 of them and doing it since 2012.

JMOM Momentum without the markup. JMOM screens US stocks for strong risk-adjusted momentum rather than raw price runs, and charges 0.12%, a fraction of what the typical fund in its category asks.

Stated mandate

DWAS The fund is designed around the Dorsey Wright SmallCap Technical Leaders Index as its stated index basis.

JMOM The fund seeks domestic equity exposure focused on companies with strong risk-adjusted momentum and potential return enhancement.

Why people hold it

  • DWAS Runs momentum where the category's heavyweights don't go: small caps. JMOM, VFMO, SPMO and MTUM all screen large-cap universes.
  • 0.60% a year, under the median fee for systematic momentum funds.
  • Roughly 200 positions, so no single small-cap name steers the whole fund.
  • Rules-based and trading since 2012, real history for a strategy that reshuffles toward whatever is leading.
  • JMOM At 0.12%, the lowest fee among its momentum peers: it undercuts VFMO and SPMO (0.13%) and MTUM (0.15%), and sits far below the roughly 0.69% category median.
  • The screen targets risk-adjusted momentum, not just the biggest price runs, so how bumpy a stock's climb was factors into whether it makes the cut.jpmorgan.com
  • Holds roughly 300 US names, a wider net than momentum sleeves that concentrate in a few dozen winners, and it pays out quarterly.
  • Live since 2017 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it rates as one of the stronger implementations in the systematic US momentum group.

Worth knowing

  • DWAS Small-cap momentum is a bumpy ride, and this sits among the higher-volatility profiles in its momentum peer group.
  • The fee beats the cohort median but towers over large-cap momentum funds priced near 0.12% to 0.15% (VFMO, SPMO, MTUM). The small-cap screen is what you're paying for.
  • Trading is thin for the category, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than in the big large-cap momentum names.
  • JMOM Momentum by construction leans into what has already been working, which means the portfolio can be caught on the wrong side when market leadership flips.
  • The benchmark is J.P. Morgan's own US Momentum Factor Index, so methodology and rebalance rules sit with the issuer rather than an outside index provider.jpmorgan.com
  • Only moderately traded next to the category's headline tickers, so spreads are worth a look before placing size.
