No style of investing works all the time, but through various market cycles, momentum has been one of the better performing factors," Wald said Monday on CNBC's "He added that the momentum stocks that led the market at the beginning of the year should resume leadership.
The MTUM ETF is "really just pausing after its breakout through October 2018 resistance at around $119. I think this pause is allowing previously overbought conditions to recede ahead of what we expect to be a resumption of that longer-term breakout," Wald said. Rather than focusing on momentum, Washington Crossing Advisors portfolio manager Chad Morganlander combs through the entire market for quality companies with very little debt in which to invest.
"When you look at the definition of momentum, high momentum, low momentum, to us it's just about quality. If you do that, going into Q4 where in this global backdrop where you have a deceleration of economic activity, the Federal Reserve as well as the ECB being quite accommodative and global PMIs that are decelerating rapidly, we think that you'd be in a good spot to do well," Morganlander said during the same interview.
The MTUM ETF has begun to outpace the S&P 500 in the past week — it has risen 1% to the S&P 500's slight decline.
