Gain control over trends and maximize your performance

The challenge to perform

Let’s face it. The price trend of the stocks you select in your portfolios will make or break your performance. Why do more than 70% of mutual funds underperform the benchmarks over 3, 5, 7, and 10 years, according to the SPIVA scorecard (S&P)? They spend money and time on data, research, and tools whose real contribution to alpha is unsatisfactory. The reaction to trend developments on single stocks is often too late and inconsistent. They miss the opportunity to exploit the performance dispersion across stocks. Dismissing the importance of taking a serious and sound approach toward trend assessment is the main reason for underperformance.

How to exploit these facts? How to capture the winners and avoid the losers?

Maximize your investment performance with better information

Want to profit from the performance dispersion, capturing the winners and avoiding the losers? Easy. Go straight to the point – incorporate efficient trend analysis, as performance dispersion is simply trends dispersion. Trendrating developed a methodology to rate medium-term trends, based on an AI model, designed to provide pragmatic “trend intelligence,” and used for years by 300+ firms on a global scale. A well-proven methodology to discriminate bull vs. bear trends is the only logical, pragmatic approach. Make trends work for you. Gain more control over price trends, exploit the performance dispersion across stocks, and maximize your investment returns. The positive impact in terms of performance and risk control can make a big difference.

The Trendrating solution

Trendrating’s advanced technology and analytics provide better information to assess the actual direction and quality of medium-term price trends on more than 17,000 stocks across all markets. Our trend evaluation model efficiently captures the money flows, the buyers vs. sellers pressure, as this is the key driver of trends. We introduced the rating of trends, where bull moves are identified by the (A) and (B) ratings, and bear phases are alerted by the (C) and (D) ratings.

Examples of how our
model works

Here you find a few examples within the US Large and Mega Cap Universe. (A) and (B) ratings mark bull trends, while (C) and (D) ratings mark bear moves.

Below is a comparison of average returns for different investment universes using our rating grades to discriminate positive versus negative trends over the past 3 and 6 months. Positively rated stocks tend to consistently outperform those with negative ratings. The differential is over 30% across 6 months. Factual evidence about exploiting the dispersion.

Evidence

The scope of our trend model is capturing medium/long-term trends with high accuracy. The result is far superior to the available conventional methodologies. Momentum is late at spotting trend reversals, as it requires a few months of obvious price action to identify the trend. This is particularly risky when you have a negative trend reversal, as it generates losses before acting. Generic technical analysis is good, but every single indicator can be erratic at times, depending on the market cycle and the volatility of the stock.
