Such a great market, if you bought SPMO, whose top holdings are the some of the most popular names on the SnP, on August 8th, you'd have just about exactly the same amount of money right now as 4 months ago 👏 💎
1: MAGS- ETF spread out amongst the magnificent 7 2: QQQM- its QQQ with a lower fee meant for long term holders in the NASDAQ 100 3: SPMO- S&P 500 momentum fund SCHG could replace 2 or 3
I'm comtemplating between SPMO and QQQM. Think I will go with VGT + SCHG, but thinking what would be the third to include...SPMO or QQQM.
I’ve been looking for an equivalent of the SPMO ETF in Europe for ages, but no broker seems to carry it. I just saw it’s available as a token on Robinhood. The ETF's performance speaks for itself, and I'm really tempted to jump in. Does anyone have experience with these tokenized ETFs? Are there any hidden fees or liquidity issues I should be aware of? Would love to hear your thoughts before I put any serious money into it.
Any thoughts about breaking it among VGT + SPMO + SCHG?
try SPMO its still selecting companies from sp500 - but instead of weighting structly on market cap - it also weights more heavily towards companies who have had momentum in the past 6 months.
If you're not willing to deeply study companies, constantly be researching the latest trends, opportunities, and bullish and bearish signals, I highly recommend just buying a broad based ETF like SPMO or VOO.
I sold all mine after the rebalance. It's been garbage after that. It might also be because the markets have been more sideways than usual. SPMO did very well throughout most of 2025, though.
Have you been holding SPMO for over a year?
58 here, Still dealing mainly the 50% Large Cap/Tech(XLK/SMG/MAGS/SPMO), 30% Managed Futures/Gold, 20% Mathematical Decaying LETFs/long(Tech2x/3x), \+40-50% LETF's Shorts(Tech/Uncorrelated Hedges/Gold etc..), When/IF I ever cover these Shorts(8-9yrs ago), got 7 digit Profits to Pay Uncle Sam. Hope my Uncle Sammy is President then!!!
Thanks for the reply! I don’t mind putting some thought into my investments, like rebalancing once in a while. I’m okay with a little extra effort to hopefully get more growth since I won’t be able to invest much until I finish my internship and education and have a more stable career, but I don’t want to be constantly watching the news or making frequent changes. I was thinking of using VTI + VXUS as my simple core and then keeping small tilts like SMH/SPMO/AVUV to lean a bit more into growth while still mostly “set it and forget it.” Does that seem reasonable long term?

Just buy SPMO and QQQM... Unless you want to be poor.
3/10. I tested your portfolio for the past 5 years and it would have done more or less the same as VGT performance alone. It’s an annualized return of 20%+ which is excellent compare to S&P500 at 15% over the last 10 years. All your performance comes from 2023. If you have one bad year, you go to -40%+. So all is good until it’s not. I would recommend to keep VGT as a significant portion of your portfolio, but diversify. Maybe VOO 50%, VGT 20%, VUG 10%, SPMO 10%, VXUS 10% (?)
VOO has been outperforming SPMO the past 6 months.
Remove SCHD, DRGO, BND. Replace by a growth fund like VUG, VGT, SPMO. At 33, it’s time to be agressive and grow your wealth.
I mean just different risk tolerances. I too personally like a nice stake in SPMO. But nonetheless have quite a bit in VOO.
Sure thing - it's a pretty simple one working on statistics and fundamentals. Essentially I took the math behind S&P Global's momentum indices which is publicly available and tweaked it to suit my needs. Instead of applying it to the s&p500, 400, 600, and whatever their international variant is called, I fed it data from Morningstar's stock selections for the US portion and their international one with a filter to only include stocks that can be traded on the US exchange(a whole lotta ADRs basically). It works well enough on international markets based on testing but that opens up a whole tax based headache and I ain't about that life. I also dumped sector filters limiting how much of any given sector could be included. Large Cap is explicitly 50% value and 50% growth, mid and small cap are each blend, international is blend. This is still leaning towards growth tech at the moment but is more balanced than the S&P500 overall. Checking which companies to include in the portfolio occurs once a month but changing out one for another only occurs with great enough shift in the metrics. For example a signal occurred recently to change out MA for NFLX but the signal was so slight that no actual adjustment was made. A full capital rebalance happens annually for tax purposes, ongoing balancing through the year is basically just buying more of laggards to bring things back into line. As to how this was developed - I decided I liked SPMO and XMMO and wanted to see if their strategy worked on other stuff - it just popped into my head one day when I went "hmm what about a NASDAQ-100 momentum index?"(QTOP basically does that). The coding portion is pretty simple. As far as pointers and resources, I cant really help you there. As you can probably guess by the rest of this comment I'm basically piggybacking on people smarter than me.
SPMO is better imo. You take out all the companies that drag VOO down and focus on the top 100 companies that have had the most momentum over the last 6 months.
Investing in QQQ(M), SPYG, SPMO sort of stuff. There’s been a ton of popularity in taking uncompensated risks. We should also normalize reading the prospectus. A lot of people have no idea what they’re buying.
If in your 20s, I'd swap out SCHD for SPMO
A lot of people tried to time the market before, during and after covid. The man scenario has been people selling at the wrong time and staying on the side when the market went up for too long. Also selling $1.5M will trigger a significant tax event. The key understanding in investment is that it is a game of patience. You need to stay invested during full cycles and be fully invested with a minimum of cash. $1.5M at 7% will be $4M is you stay invested with no contribution in 15 years. So you literally have nothing to do. With $25K contribution per year you will be around $5M. Now, one important thing to do is to invest not only in the S&P500, but be sure to be diversified. You should allocate a portion of your portfolio in international and more importantly into growth like SPMO, VGT, VUG.
Rediculous question, because investing in maybe 3 would be far better. * 5 years SGOV * 10 years VOO * 20 years SPMO
PVAL SPMO JGRO Value Blend Growth All high sharpe ratio performers
The key phrase from u/Mammoth_Drop_5486 is “spent a considerable amount of time researching this stuff and investing.” You as a D1 athlete should be spending your time optimizing yourself for your sport. That’s where your highest potential for earnings lie. Any stock market gains should be a bonus on top of the fat checks you cash from NIL deals and eventually (hopefully) an NFL team. If the stress or complexity of learning the market creates even the smallest distraction from football, you should hand off (pun intended) that responsibility to a professional. Your future as a high net worth individual is not worth self-directed gains now. Why take the risk and waste the time doing this yourself when you can easily afford a professional fiduciary? The way you’re compensated is already complex. Contracts do not remove income tax automatically the way a W2 job does. It’s on you to properly report this income and pay taxes on it. They will hit you with fees for doing poor math, being late or just missing a payment all together. You could even catch a tax evasion charge. Add in additional deals from local/national endorsements and other similar pay structures and you’re talking about at least a full day of paperwork. What I’m trying to say here is that you’re above this. You’re now at a level where your talent can out earn anything you can make in the market and the sums you’re dealing with have the potential to get stupid big, stupid fast. It’s ridiculous for you to spend time on things like adding up your deductions or ensuring you paid enough taxes. Also, athletes get taken advantage of or just flat out squander fortunes all the time, knowing a trusted professional is hugely valuable for someone like you who will be pitched investment and business ventures. If you really want to just invest yourself tho, just split 80/20 between VOO and an international ETF of your choosing. Adding QQQM or SPMO isn’t really diversifying. It’s just adding a really similar basket of stocks with slightly different weights 3 times over. Most index-based ETFs are already diversified. If you really need a third holding, pick up some precious metals or ladder some CDs.
Anyone who invested in QQQ or SPMO or VGT 5 years ago beat the S&P500 market. To beat the market you need to invest in growth funds and you need a bull market. If not, you need to cherry pick stock and bet on value.
SPMO is impressive but still fairly similar to QQQM.
If you're gonna go with three ETFs, I also like SPMO. Direct exposure to the momentum factor and provides strategy diversification from the market cap-weighted indices.
I would pick VT, SPMO, and BRK.B, primarily because they represent diversified strategies while still giving broad exposure to businesses, economies, and currencies. **$VT: Vanguard Total World Stock ETF** If I had to choose just one ETF, this would be it. VT offers all the momentum benefits of a market cap-weighted index, but offers some robustness to economic shifts by being globally diversified. Currently \~35% is allocated to stocks outside of North America. **$SPMO: Invesco S&P 500 Momentum ETF** SPMO is the only ETF I am quite confident can beat the SP500 over the next 20 years. While I don't think the purpose of a set-it-and-forget-it portfolio is outperformance, SPMO offers strategy diversification to the portfolio by explicitly giving exposure to the momentum factor. I would have preferred a global version, but I am not aware of any. **$BRK.B: Berkshire Hathaway** Berkshire is effectively an actively managed and highly diversified closed-end fund at this stage. Warren Buffett may be stepping down, but he has carefully selected competent people to carry on his legacy. The reason that Berkshire Hathaway is part of the portfolio is that it is counter-cyclical, that is, Berkshire piles up cash when the markets are frothy and deploys it when it is in despair. It also gives access to private equity deals which none of the other tickers do explicitly.
SPMO, GLD, IBIT / stock market, gold, bitcoin
my long positions in corporate long bond ETFs are sagging by 1 - 3 percent. but I'm glad I got out of SPMO a couple weeks ago. also gold is sagging. pretty much everything sags now.
Top wealth management firm can’t run with your money. It’s under your name. Anything needs your approval. If something ever happened, the parent company would owe you a lot of money as it’s against the law. For the investments, I could choose to “VOO and Chill” like most are doing, which means, invest in the S&P500 and forget it. I choose a wealth management to achieve different goals (and I might be wrong, so do not take it as an advice but more as sharing my experience). The portfolio direct indexing S&P500, is like VOO and chill, so following the market performance and delivering tax loss harvesting. It’s my main portfolio. The portfolio direct indexing Russell 1000, is a growth portfolio, delivering better performance than S&P500, and tax loss harvesting. Growth being more volatile, I get more tax losses. Russell is up 4% more than S&P500 this year. Private Equities is providing good returns, and provides stability in case of crash as disconnected from the market. I use KKR, Stepstone, Blackstone… My other growth portfolio is having a bit of bitcoin, SPMO, QQQ, VOO and a large portion of international. The last portfolio is more a balanced one with 25 different value stocks.
1. Build an emergency fund saving account equals to 6 months of expenses. 2. Pay off your debt. 3. Max out or contribute to 401K. 4. Contribute to a Roth IRA. 5. Invest in cheap ETF VOO for market performance and QQQ or SPMO for growth.
Why SPHQ over SPMO? Just curious, I just bought some SPMO recently. What do you like about SPHQ? Spmo has a 5 yr return of 130% with an expense ratio of .13%. Sphq has a 5 yr return of 81% and .15% fee. Sphq's dividend is higher though, 1.07% to .64%. Does sphq leans towards value and spmo leans towards growth? I bought a really good value etf, VTV. Check it out. .04% fee and 2.09% yield.
VTI and SPMO hit where they were at highs in August, for about the 3rd time in the last month or two though. Volatile swings but going nowhere.
Too many funds with too much overlap. VT + one of the more aggressive funds (IOO or SPMO) to hedge growth.
- VTI, IOO, and SPMO all heavily feature U.S. large-cap tech stocks like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia. This creates redundancy and reduces diversification. - VDHG includes VGS (global stocks) and VAS (Australian stocks), which partially overlap with IOO and CSL, but also adds bonds—helping balance risk. - HACK and CSL provide non-overlapping exposure to cybersecurity and Australian healthcare, respectively. - DFND may overlap with VTI in defensive U.S. sectors like consumer staples and utilities. Think about: - Reduce VTI or IOO weight to avoid overexposure to U.S. large caps. - Consider adding emerging markets (e.g., VGE) or small-cap international ETFs for broader global exposure. - If you want to keep VDHG, you might not need VTI and IOO at such high weights—VDHG already includes global and domestic equities. I personally only have BRK-B (Baby Berkshire Hathaway) & SCHG. And daytrade TQQQ mostly.
I'd just do SCHG and SPMO instead.
SOXX, ARKK, SPMO, and QQQ are all going to have massive overlap. Tech and momentum are intertwined heavily, and the others are all just straight tech plays.
Good point, SPY has had consistent bull runs during that time frame so SPMO overperforms. I do wonder if it reshuffles to best performers when the market is underperforming.
SPMO in particular also does some things that make it out perform traditional momentum funds. It only takes it's 100 holdings from the SP500 and it doesn't factor the most recent month in evaluating momentum scores so a lot of volitility is removed. It still should lag behind the SP500 if it reshuffles at a bad time though.
META is top 3 in the SPMO momentum index, which is "touted to beat the SPY".
Open Fidelity brokerage and Roth accounts, move HYSA to brokerage and buy 50% SGOV and 50% PAAA. Max out Roth IRA for this year and every following year. After maxing out Roth account(s) (another Roth account if you're married and they have a job too), put the rest in your brokerage account. The other investments for your brokerage and Roth(s) should be something like 40% VOO, 20% SCHG, 20% SPMO, 20% AVDE.
SPMO , SCHG if looking for growth ✨️ 🙌
Too many ETF's to be a boglehead, not enough risk to be accepted by apes or WSB degens. Most of my port is in VTI. Then I have a mixture of themed ETF's like: VGT SMH SHLD SPMO % wise right now VGT and SMH are far outperforming my VTI but that's because of Nvidia. Something something past performance something future results.
someone tell me why SPMO gapped down 3% premarket 😭
I like FTEC and SPMO. These are growth ETFs. If you’re interested in steady, less volatile but incremental growth, then go for VTI, SCHG, or VOO. Determine your risk tolerance, goals and future prospects. Then, strategize, study and execute.
it would be what it is right now (growth etfs like QQQ, SCHG, IWY, SPMO) and i would throw more and more cash into it the further it crashed
Bro… the S&P 500 doubles every 7 years. If you buy a stock as it is taking off you get multiple doubles in a year. I don’t have 30 fucking years to wait for 4 doubles on my dollar when I can do that in a single year with the right stock at the right moment in time. What I do like to do is go in heavy on a single stock during a very specific period of time where there is like an insane greed and speculation cycle. Then I sell and set stop losses and then put the profits into the S&P 500 and growth ETF’s and mineral mining ETF’s and sector ETF’s. Concentrate then diversify. You can do that over and over again you just gotta pick your spots. If you have a bunch of cash and a huge income then yeah you can just buy the S&P 500 with a big lump sum and keep adding to it and the dividends and average return will still make you wealthy. Hard working brokies need additional risk to get enough capital though otherwise average return minus inflation is just not enough. It takes too long and this is not the same game as it was for our parents. This is why I bought Palantir, then when it looked too risky I diversified into SPMO. I’m not an investing genius but I made huge fucking profits and multi doubles within a year. The S&P 500 would have gotten me almost nowhere instead of zipping me to first 100K invested. Also huge gains with Robinhood stock. Now I am looking at Opendoor. The CEO looks like he will make me money. Or I’m wrong this time but house money with plenty of multi sector diversification. Once you see and experience a single position turning $1 into $5 and so $10,000 into $50,000 within a year versus the S&P 500 turning $10,000 into $12,000 in a year you start to get the idea… just think if you had $100,000 into $500,000 how much better that is than $100,000 into $120,000. It’s a night and day difference and shortcuts you to everything.
Neither SPMO nor MTUM hold TSLA
I would merge VOO and FXAIX or transition FXAIX to VXUS. I don’t understand why you have a very concentrated position on MSFT. Makes no sense. I would diversify to SPMO. Overall, it’s a very heavy growth portfolio. It’s good, but I would add international and perhaps private equity if you are eligible at one stage.
More of SPMO, AMD, HOOD, and that door that’s not closed (for some reason they still ban the word o.p.e.n. In this sub) :)
AI is a bubble and quantum is a bubble. Switch QQQ to VOO or SPMO. The 2000 bubble affected tech only, so don’t put all your eggs in one basket
mtum is ok, but SPMO beats it in almost every time metric. Last 5 yrs SPMO: +150%, MTUM: +73%. Not even close
checking in 5 months later, XMMO has NOT beaten the SP500 at all. SPMO has pretty consistently beaten it over both the 1yr and 5yr. AVUV has gotten absolutely crushed by the SP500.
Literally sold my SCHG, QQQM and SPMO for BYND ~17K. Should I sell my VOO (~11K) ? That’s all I have
Put half into SPMO -this is a momentum fund that has consistently outperformed the S&P500. That will give you some growth. Then invest the other half into QQQi and JEPQ for monthly dividends.
Why is SPMO getting wrecked lately?
SPMO is better than itot & FXAIX is half the price.
Start with ETFS think long term And buy thing that have an up only chart GDX QTUM BTC SOXX BKCH BTC Buy these 1$ daily for a week to get an avg price Use fear and greed index It tells you wen to buy and sell You buy in fear and accumulate a position And stocks like WMT SPMO PG for the contractions and trough phase of the business cycle
Buy MAGS its the mag 7 in ETF form. Also buy SPMO its momentum stocks. These two have performerd well over the last few years. https://totalrealreturns.com/n/SPMO,VOO,MAGS Also check out GLD.
We are a few years away before everyone ditches SCHD and climbs aboard the new thing everyone is talking about (SPMO might be it as its tripled in AUM the past year similar to SCHD). I prefer a base total market core to get total small/mid exposure and tilting singularly (no need for a value tilt AND growth tilt. just tilt one way. It largely simplifies moving forward. I prefer your taxable layout compared to the Roth. I too wanted to touch everything individually at a young age but eventually as life goes on you realize that simplification kind of trumps all. but thats perhaps just me.
SCHD + VGT combo already covers a lot. Maybe just watch the overlap with SPMO, u r doing great for 25.
SPMO flat for a month = big dump incoming
Thought's on the following overall breakout? Want to stay generally broad but thinking of doing a bit of a tilt towards US as well as large cap momentum & small cap value. Timeline is 30+ Years - In my low 20s and will be maxing out Roth & 401k (plus some funds going into brokerage) for the foreseeable future) US (80% of total): 64% US total market (VIIX + VIEIX in my 401k mimics VTI weight) 12% SPMO 4% AVUV Ex-US (20% of total): 10% International total market (VTSNX in my 401k) 5% IDMO 5% AVDV
Check out gold mining, critical minerals/rare earth minerals, and uranium ETF’s. The spark is alive and well. Pair those with SPMO.
"S&P 500" isn't a stock; it's a collection of 500 different companies. Rather than you investing in each of them individually, there are companies out there that bundle them together for you. SPY, VOO, IVV, FXAIX, etc all track that index of companies. There are also variations on the theme, but SPMO and SPYI are not tracking the index itself.
I'm a fan of GFLW, SPMO, and EGGQ
I’d keep it simple - put it into a few momentum ETFs and forget about it. You’ll get exposure to the strongest-performing stocks without having to pick them yourself. Something like SPMO, XMMO, XSVM etc.

If you weren't reinvesting dividends over that time, you are probably in the green, but severely underperforming. There's no reason to bet that much on Ford. Put it in a tech ETF or SPMO and see how much you can catch up to the broader market
Still lots of low valued companies around. Even with indexes at ATH I can still outperform. Healthcare stocks, Energy stocks, Gold, Sofi, Paypal, etc. My picks average over 10% in the past month while my ETFs like SPMO and VOO see around 3% gains.
I have a hefty sum currently in SCHD and am not impressed. Maybe it will resurrect itself with the reconstitution next year. Not sure I want to wait that long to find out. Even though SCHD has a very nice 11% dividend cagr, it will still take over 12 years to reach what qqqi is paying now, if it ever gets that high. Over the past year, SCHD has a negative 3% price change while qqqi has enjoyed a +6% price change and paying 4x the income. Food for thought. Right now SCHD is a drag on my portfolio (mostly in an IRA) and I'm strongly considering reducing my exposure there by 65% and refocusing that money on growth funds like qqqm and SPMO, etc.
Select good quality ETF that gets rebalanced 2-4 times a year, and buy shares regularly on market pullbacks. Set up a trailing stop at i.e. 5% drawdown, that will automatically get you out on major market correction (make sure to get back as market starts recovery - follow market news on weekly or at least monthly basis). Meanwhile, keep learning about investment strategies and markets from YouTube / podcasts (my fav - Thoughtful Money), or better books - much less overwhelm. My favourite ETFs are SPMO and GRNY.

Yeah, you did. If you're looking to be a momentum investor, try SPMO.
I agree. It’s not that VOO is inherently bad, it’s that there is a sub cult that wants to pretend things like QQQ, SMH, or SPMO don’t exist. Like they don’t even want to hear it
Why is SPMO not tracking?
I would not recommend putting it all in a single stock. You might consider the SPMO etf. It invests in the 100 stock with the highest momentum score.
SPMO, SMH, VUG, VONG, SCHG, QQQM, MGK pick your flavor
Buy SPMO and XLK if you have no idea what you're doing.
UPDATE: decided to buy FSKAX/FSGSX/SPMO/PFF in a 70/20/10/10 split in the Rollover IRA. Next will be the Roth IRA and Investment accounts. Thanks for all the insights!
Unless I'm not understanding.... That can easily be accomplished with any broker that allows automatic investing. Easily done at Fidelity or any platform as far as I know. This is a simple automatic investment option. you tell them how much $$$ you want to invest, how often, and then set a mix of stocks/funds based on $$ or %. when the time comes, they buy the mix of stocks/funds that you instructed. this happens as often as you tell them to do it. example. Every Monday, invest $100, buy 70% VOO, 30% SPMO. every monday, they will buy $70 of VOO and $30 of SPMO for you.
The thing with SCHD is that *you* don't control when they "sell" your shares. IMHO that kind of ruins the point of individual investing. Don't get me wrong, I like it when my dividends come in, but I like the concentration in stocks in something like VOO or SPMO than SCHD. For me, the novelty of dividends wears off pretty quick.
