In advance: 4QTR24 <U/O> Matrix via Applied Indexation is currently available in multi-sheet format.

 

<U/O> Matrix via Applied Indexation presents proprietary methodology at scale to illustrate adaptive benchmark/index applications of peer group analytics and valuation, establishing context for institutional investors to identify empirical/prevalent/emerging themes and complementary portfolio strategies (performance dispersion, attribution; portfolio construction).

 

Efforts to improve data governance are fundamentally strengthened by refinement of conventional sector/industry/subindustry nomenclature assignments as the ability to isolate valuation drivers at distinct points of inflection is dependent on accurate capture of core strategic economic assumptions (idiosyncratic, dislocations).

 

In this context <U/O> Matrix via Applied Indexation methodology presents data analytics on a relative portfolio-weighted basis to dimension competitive market information and demonstrate interrelationships among benchmark/index component members across economic sectors/asset classes/geography based on corporate business segment operations. Provided is an opportunity to lever component member attributes and define protocols for index-plus/thematic/megatrend/niche/systematic portfolio strategies (cross-sector/multi-asset/multi-factor).

 

Featured Clean Energy thematic is derived from a combined Renewables/Diversified Industrials/Technology sector-themed overlay within Invesco’s publicly traded Clean Energy subindustry benchmark proxy ETF (ticker PBW), utilizing the modularity of business segment operations embedded within company revenue lines to generate effective Tier-2: Alpha and Alpha-Beta screens.

 

>> PBW total return: 3-mos. +3.0%, 4Q24 +0.9%, CY24 -30.8%; 12-mos. performance dispersion +559.2%/-80.5% (011525).

 

>> PBW Fwd adj. PE=24.7 Beta=1.6 versus 23.9/1.6, 28.4/1.6 and 26.8/1.6 sequentially [40.0 limit; N/A totals 51.5% (v. 49.9%) based on portfolio weight and 52.2% of count (-0.7%), 5.7% on market capitalization (-1.3%); Large-cap 23.8% (-2.3%), Mid-cap 32.0% (-6.7%), Small-cap 44.8% (+9.3%)].

 

>> SPX 12-month Fwd PE=21.5/4Q24 v. 21.4/3Q24, 21.2/2Q24, 20.6/1Q24 (FactSet); CAPE 37.4 from 36.7/35.8/34.7, mean 17.2 (Shiller).

At Venn’s intersection, sets and subsets of competing interests endure. The dynamic principles of business segment operations are three-fold: 1) multinational and Large-cap companies function as benchmark sector/industry/subindustry proxies based on scale (Alpha-Beta), 2) Small- and Mid-cap companies participate as competitive peers (Alpha) and, hence, acquisition candidates and 3) among subsets of 1) and 2) are companies provisioning multiple economic sectors, asset classes and geographies.

 

Successful portfolio strategies (fundamental, index-plus, systematic) and adaptive investable motifs (niche, thematic, megatrend) isolate Value in Growth, and Growth in Value, by aligning the prospective Alpha drivers directly associated with ecosystem composition and supply chain verticals.
