ETF Industry KPI – 10/23/2023

Week of October 16, 2023 KPI Summary

Ryan Fitzgerald

  • This week, the industry experienced 20 ETF launches and 7 closures, shifting the 1-year Open-to-Close ratio to 2.12 and total US ETFs to 3,319.
  • October 23rd is my mother’s birthday so a big Happy Birthday to Eileen! In light of my mom’s birthday, let’s talk about what else can come to mind for “MOM” in the ETF industry: Momentum ETFs.
    • There are 41 Momentum ETFs according to the ETF Think Tank Security Master, totaling $18.1 Billion.
      • Like many ETF categories and sectors, the Momentum ETFs are top-heavy in assets. The top 5 ETFs constitute $14.1 Billion. These 5 are (in order of most to least) MTUM, FV, IMTM, XMMO, and PDP.
        • The largest by far ($7.7 Billon) is iShares MSCI USA Momentum Factor ETF (MTUM), which was launched back in 2013.
      • IMTM has the best 1-year total returns (14.7%) of the top 5 listed and is 5th overall of the 41 total. The top ETF in 1-year total returns is Invesco’s IDMO (Invesco S&P International Developed Momentum ETF) at 19.3%.
      • Of the 32 Momentum ETFs that have a 5-year track record, Invesco’s PTF (Invesco Dorsey Wright Technology Momentum ETF) has the best total returns with 17.6%, with the next highest fund at 11.4%.
    • There are 17 Issuers represented in the 41 Momentum ETFs.
      • First Trust leads with 18 ETFs and Alpha Architect is in a distant second with 4 Momentum ETFs.
      • First Trust’s 18 ETFs amount to $4.3 Billion in assets, which places them contrarily in a distant second behind iShares with $9.1 Billion across their 2 Momentum ETFs.
    • Momentum ETFs have an average Expense Ratio of 54.8 bps, just above the ETF industry average of 53.6 bps.
      • If Alpha Architect’s VMOT is removed with its high ER over 2%, the average drops to 50.8 bps.
  • The tracked indexes experienced similar performance last week. The Toroso ETF Industry Index was down -2.01% while the S&P Financial Select Sector Index trailed at -2.91%.
