5 months ago I invested $50K in the stocks market as my first dalliance into investing. Ofc they all took a 25% dip almost immediately. In my case my 50K went down to 44K. I just sighed, chalked it up to experience and then just left it all as it was. When I checked on the wallet a month ago it was worth $65K!!!
Great video, Ramin. I'm a big fan of factor investing. It's nice to have a passive way of potentially outperforming the market through a factor fund, rather than relying on an active manager who usually underperform. Of course nothing is guaranteed as you say and there's no guarantee these factors will outperform in the future, so you have to have some faith and be able to stick with it. Stockopedia is also nice if you want to build your own factor portfolio.
Very interesting mini study Ramin. A good illustration of actual value vs value based on market sentiment ( which I suspect many fund managers use to build generic portfolios ). Thanks for sharing !
Another excellent, useful video. Very useful information that one should be informed about. In spite of all this I have been hard pressed to beat the broader market index.
There are of course ETFs which combine these factors autmatically ("qvm" or "multifactor"). It seems very impractical to try doing it by hand. There is also this well-known phenomenon that the moment semething is discovered that would have systematically allowed for market overperfomance in the past, that something stops working. Case in point is the performance of value and small caps in the US market since the work of Fama and French in the 90s, but there are also other examples..
Hi Ramin, instead of constructuing a small portfolio with these tilts, wouldn't it be simpler to buy 3 factor ETFs - value, momentum and small cap ETFs? thanks
Factor tilting works over a very long time period, 15-20+ years is a significant time period for an individual investor's time horizon. I believe factor tilts are appropriate for institutional investors like endowments.
Ramin..we all know how to beat the Market but very few of us have the guts to do it...and that is buy EQQQ or NESP, and keep buying and buying and buying and holding on... although net of fees, would this still outperform the S&p 500?
HI ramin... please could you share the name of the index fund which makes up 90% of your portfolio please 🙏 I am looking to make a small investment in my first index fund, nothing substantial just a very small amount for the experience and to help me learn just the basics of how investing in funds works and it would be great for me to see what you have invested in. Im fully aware your not offering me financial advice and i wouod not treat it as such. Great videos by the way ❤😊
Great video ! I wonder if a diversification and momentum mix well, as you would be limiting the positive impact of a trend, which tends to be sector specific (i.e. Energy in 2022, Tech(AI) in 2023)
The best investment style for investors outside the system is dollar cost averaging in index fund. The reason is that some people in the system have more information. When we, as outsiders, reach information, it is too late. As Maddoff said, the whole system is a ponzi scheme.DCA is in S&P lower your stress level as well as your costs.
However, Vanguard Uk tried to run factor funds and failed miserably and withdrew from the market outside America completely in this are so perhaps this is a very high risk choice for ordinary investors?
They did not withdrew these funds due to higher risk for investors, they done it because majority of investors was not interested in buying them. Factor investing is really the only way to passivly beat the market in the long run, yet it is not very popular within retail investor. Big shame.
I have a couple of tilts after my mainly VWRL Investments . Including water , small cap & tec etf as I think these parts of the market will outperform over the long term
Buffet was originally a value investor like Benjamin Graham but now he is, arguably, a Quality investor. He now prefers getting a great company at a good price rather than a good company at a great price.
I think for small caps it is a better idea to choose a small caps actively managed fund instead with a great track record where the management is busy to cherry pick the ‘good’ small caps all day. Instead of a small caps index fund where there can be much more bad apples…
Great video & food for thought 👍 RE StockRank performance history, I wonder how has the back testing defined the constituent SupersStocks of each decile over the entire term? E.g. is the 90-100 decile composition static and based on historical performance of stocks scored at 90+ today, or did Stockopedia have the historical data to include a stock when it hit 90, and exclude it when it dropped below 90?
I would gladly invest 5-10% of my portfolio into Global Small Cap Value Index Fund. Just a shame there is no such fund, at least not for UK based investor. Great episode Ramin.
Very interesting video... Thanks Rami. I guess it would be useful to compare the back test of those stockepidia with actual passive funds combined for same region with same factors. So in that case, it may not be worth to enter in messy rebalancing (taxes/paperwork) and search... I also like to "search and learn" but sometimes people need only to adhere to some tilt (or not) by easily applying. For instance... To have bought Berkshire during decades, it has been a simple way to beat market by tilting to value. Still may be the case in long run.
Hi @ivivivir the passive funds I'd compare the NAPS strategy with would be the trackers of the FTSE All Share (since that's the universe of stocks the strategy is drawn from) but the returns would be similar to the FTSE All Share if that were the case. But you say a more interesting comparison would be with a UK fund with those tilts. However, as far as I know, there is no FTSE All Share fund with the same factor tilts as NAPS (value, quality, and momentum). UK factor funds are quite thin on the ground which is also why I made my own using Stockopedia (mine also has a small cap tilt). Thanks, Ramin.
Two things to note: you can tweak your own version of naps, like I have done and it varies from the documented results. You can do it against us companies too but the data costs more (assuming you are a uk native). The stockopedia founder compared against Nasdaq favourably I believe a while back but that’s not viewable externally (or may be still current). My own naps is slightly behind in total return, over the worst two years, highlighting the variance of restriction. The video mentioned it but the recipe varied slightly over the period which makes the results a little skewed, but they’ve now reverted to the original recipe which was responsible for the early alpha. It’s certainly a cheap exposure to factor investing now that vanguard closed their funds…
leverage is probably the most realiable. if you can get low enough interest margin. factors need to show if they are still there afte rbeing discovered. If believe so, but probably lower then in the past. Stock picking will work in like 5% of cases, if ou are eithe rluck or a Warren Buffet. I would not bet on the latter part...
@stiffeification You might be right about the reliability of leverage vs factors. On Buffett, I read that his alpha disappears when you statistically control for Berkshire's exposure to known risk factors (e.g. value, profitability) and leverage (which he obtained through his insurance businesses). His genius was of course that he was factor investing intuitively before it was an established field within finance, but today his approach - and therefore his market beating potential - can be replicated systematically. Whether that will work as well in the future as in the past is another question.
I think you can with stock picking, if you do a lot of research and have a well defined strategy that you stick to no matter what. It's maybe statistically less likely, but if you're willing to put in the time and you're determined/patient enough to see it through for the long term and be willing to learn from any mistakes along the way, I think it definitely is possible. Most people just don't have the time, or are not willing to put in the time, to dedicate to it or are not willing to take on an amount of risk that it entails. For most people index funds fit the bill, they have low risk and produce perfectly reasonable average consistent results without you having to do very much.
@Andygb78 thousands of hours of research by all global experts are reflected in the market price of a stock (maybe close to infinite hours now AI is on the case). How much time does one have to put into something to be able to make predictions that are more accurate than the smartest and most well informed participants in the field?
@@davec3974 You can actually use the experts to your advantage. If you look at which companies stocks have a large percentage of institutional investor shareholders, you can see the stocks that the majority of investment funds back themselves. Peter Lynch describes the advantages a non financial expert has over a professional, and it basically boils down to speciality. There are companies that you will be more familiar with as a customer than a global expert could ever hope to be, because you've literally spent hundreds of hours engaged with that company, a finance professional has a limited amount of time to analyse a company and does so by a rigid theoretical metric. An understanding of the broad fundamental investing principles, combined with a real world appreciation for industry/global/consumer trends coupled with discipline and patience is all you really need.

Thanks for the video. Your 2.8% versus my 4% in a savings account felt good. I've lost money on stocks during 2022. 2023 was slightly better but super tricky. 2024 is like: WHERE do I put my money.
Fewer new automobiles have been selling in recent years than the 2015,16,17,18 era. And cars are including more and more microchips. And EVs use more microchips than gas cars. So I’m no financial advisor, but I expect that in three years we’ll almost certainly be selling more new vehicles, with, for two separate reasons, a greater number of microchips per vehicle. So following the selloff in their share prices since mid 2023, Im putting money into companies that make microchips that are used in vehicles. It’s a bet on EVs that doesn’t even need EVs to succeed in order to be successful. Growth trends on top of growth trends without getting caught up in the high valuations of AI hype companies

because the strategy has worked in the past doesn't mean it will work in the future, and you need to stick to the strategy regardless of whether it is performing well because *maybe* it will in the long term. or maybe not. maybe you ride your portfolio all the way into the ground by sticking to a strategy that no longer works.
