Cycle Trading

[Duma]

The market is sure on fire so far this year. SPY is now up 4.14% ytd. My base holdings of My5 at 1.5L are up 7.56%, not bad at all.

You will notice that I added a new ETF to the list, MTUM. Jaws has been doing great reshearch for new ETF's and has come up with some good ones. My5 includes his FDN and FFTY find and now I have MTUM to consider.

MTUM is an "iShares Edge MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF" and just like FFTY they weight the stocks at different levels which really enhances the performance. What I really like about MTUM is the low volatility. It has gained 42% for the past 12 months and yet it is only slightly more volatile than SPY. That is quite an accoplishment.

Because of this fact I have added MTUM to part of my holdings for my larger conservative account.

Good going Jaws, you are making my a lot of money.
