Momentum Screen
Select holdings by historically observable momentum, targeting roughly one quarter of each period's original member count and no more than 20 names; when a period has over 100 members, pre-rank to the top 50 first.
AI Summary
Large-growth momentum mix delivered strong absolute returns, but optimization added concentration and drawdown risk with only marginal return improvement.

Strategy Q&A
Pre-generated questions and answers about this strategy.
- momentum13FChat AI
Which names did the momentum screen keep, and how does that reflect a momentum tilt?
The momentum screen kept a narrow set of strong recent winners and then amplified them aggressively. Its top names are AAPL at 20.0%, GOOGL at 15.9%, LLY at 9.87%, JNJ at 6.34%, CAT at 4.08%, MRK at 4.02%, LRCX at 3.56%, AMAT at 3.44%, and APP at 3.21%. Compared with original weights, the biggest active increases are AAPL +12.91, GOOGL +13.32, LLY +8.37, and JNJ +5.46. Sector weights also tilt heavily toward Information Technology 36.23%, Health Care 30.87%, and Communication Services 15.9%, which is consistent with a trend-following screen that concentrated in a few sectors with strong relative strength.
strategyViews.momentum-screen.topHoldingsstrategyViews.momentum-screen.latestChangesstrategyViews.momentum-screen.sectorWeights↳ Ask which original baseline leaders were dropped or sharply de-emphasized by the momentum screen.
- momentum13FChat AI
Did the momentum screen improve returns enough to justify its drawdown and concentration risk?
Not really. The momentum screen lifted annualized return only slightly, from 19.10% in baseline to 19.25%, and total return from 66.16% to 66.76%, but Sharpe fell from 1.24 to 1.06 and max drawdown worsened from -18.86% to -22.18%. Concentration risk also jumped sharply, with top 5 at 56.19% and top 10 at 73.57%, versus baseline top 10 at 38.83%. So the screen added only about +0.15 annualized return and +0.60 total return while taking materially more drawdown and concentration risk.
strategyViews.baseline.metricsstrategyViews.momentum-screen.metricsstrategyViews.momentum-screen.metricDeltastrategyViews.baseline.concentrationstrategyViews.momentum-screen.concentration↳ Ask for a side-by-side risk budget showing how much extra concentration and drawdown was taken for the momentum screen’s small return gain.
- momentum13FChat AI
Which periods or holdings most clearly explain the momentum screen's result?
The momentum result is best explained by two things: a few oversized winners and several very weak periods. On the holdings side, AAPL at 20.0% and GOOGL at 15.9% dominate the portfolio, while health-care names like LLY 9.87% and JNJ 6.34% also became major active bets. On the period side, the worst evidence against the screen is 2025-04, when it returned -0.25% versus SPY +6.28% for a -6.53 excess, and 2025-05, when it lagged by -3.62. The strongest recovery periods were 2025-08 (+3.04 excess), 2025-09 (+2.28), and 2025-10 (+3.11), but those came after the strategy had already accepted a deeper -22.18% max drawdown.
strategyViews.momentum-screen.topHoldingsstrategyViews.momentum-screen.periodPerformancestrategyViews.momentum-screen.metrics↳ Ask for the specific holdings that hurt the momentum screen most in 2025-04 and helped it most in 2025-08 to 2025-10.
