TBH you have various dividend ETFs, value ETFs, quality ETFs, yield ETFs, ETFs using joint metrics etc.
e.g. Avantis/Dimensional have some well published value+profitability ETFs, and Cambria has a total Yield ETF.
You may not like the mechanism or TER of these but there are definitely mechanical ETFs out there.
Yes there are, thanks for mentioning that. If you use one of those that fulfill your requirements you donât need to build your own ETF like I do.
But still, you need a âmechanicalâ approach to position and money management. Otherwise you are in danger of losing a lot due to behavioral errors in key moments (buying high and selling low).
The industry term is âSystematic ETFâ or âFully-systematic ETFâ.
oh yes, my 3a MSCI Quality portfolio is in ±0% YTD this year, the value hedged + gold hedged + BTC + RE âcrash courseâ portfolio is up 80% YTD - crazy.
Normal, so donât act on it. But if you do 60-90% in one of your strategies, the others should do just fine. Donât get excited, donât get scared!
itâs a 3a, so Iâm not worried, it can run a lot more years

Two days since we went off track discussing ETFs and other boring stuff.

Of course the problem is solved, this time is different!
You read it here first and even liked it @Your_Full_Name!
I did indeed which is why I replied to your post from two days ago in the first place?
The deeper sense of your new reply now escapes me, though. Please accept my apologies.
Iâm such a noob. 
Hey, Iâve been a member (in club noob) since I was bornâŠ
Nah, you were not. Early adopter nerd.
Now weâre just old(er). I wonder when I would make fun of myself not being able to use a modern software. Time has come.
I went straight from IRC (Irssi) to this forum skipping a bit of the internet life in between. Had some ICQ chat experience I admitâŠ
I have to find a way to use VIM here especially with this happening.
In still using IRC ⊠though I use some bouncer that supports mobile clients these days instead of irssi. Much nicer if IRC is your conference chat âŠ
discourse actually has some vim-like keyboard short cuts. try ? to see them.
use j/k to navigate posts etc. o to open. âg lâ to go to latest view.

Damn this took me back many years, I think it was pre-2000 that I was starting my trolling journey in mIRC
Well I have to check if I can still boot a computer with a keyboard.
