GMOMBCambria Global Momentum ETF

RISNAInspire Capital Appreciation ETF

In short

GMOM A go-anywhere trend follower in one ticker: GMOM ranks global stock, bond, commodity and currency ETFs, holds what is trending up, and can retreat to cash and short-term bonds when trends break. Live since 2014, 0.95% all-in.

RISN A tactical blend of U.S. large-cap stocks and U.S. bonds from a values-screening shop, built to chase long-term growth with less turbulence than the large-cap market, at a fee below the typical tactical peer.

Stated mandate

GMOM The fund seeks capital preservation and growth through a disciplined, globally diversified quantitative approach spanning equity, fixed income, commodities, and currencies, without depending on a particular market direction.

RISN The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation with lower volatility than the U.S. large-cap stock market.

Why people hold it

GMOM Owns ETFs, not single names: a broad global menu of equity, bond, commodity and currency funds, sorted by momentum and long-term trend, with cash and bonds as the fallback.cambriafunds.com
Of the 0.95% total expense ratio, 0.36 points is the fee on the ETFs it holds; the rest is the management fee. Near the typical cost in its tactical multi-asset group.cambriafunds.com
Trading since November 2014 and run by Cambria founder Meb Faber on his own published tactical-allocation research, so the rulebook predates the fund.cambriafunds.com cambriafunds.com 2

RISN Charges 0.72% a year, under the going rate for tactical multi-asset funds that actively shift their mix.
One ticket holds U.S. large-cap equities alongside U.S. fixed income, with the stated aim of long-term appreciation at lower volatility than U.S. large caps.
One of the stronger implementations in a crowded tactical multi-asset field, with a live record going back to its 2020 launch.
Pays out quarterly, so the bond sleeve shows up as scheduled cash rather than a once-a-year surprise.

Worth knowing

GMOM Thinly traded next to the giants of multi-asset investing, so the bid-ask spread can matter more than the expense ratio on small orders.
Trend rules look backward: the fund can sit out the start of a rally and can whipsaw in choppy, directionless markets. That is the mechanism working as written.cambriafunds.com
Cambria's own ENDW sits in the same tactical multi-asset category at 0.22%, so this fund's trend engine is the costlier route from the same shop.

RISN Thinly traded and modest in size, so bid-ask spreads can matter more than the fee does. Limit orders are the standard workaround.
Tactical means judgment calls: the allocation can look nothing like a fixed stock/bond blend at any given moment.
Cheap for tactical, not cheap outright. Peers such as ENDW (0.22%) and ONOF (0.39%) run at a fraction of the fee.
