The fund tilts toward size (smb) (β=0.37); tilts toward momentum (umd) (β=0.22). Backtested-simulation excess return is +9.41% annualized; the in-sample realized excess was +10.41%.

Why XMMO Ranks This Way

  • Backtested relative Sharpe is 1.31, above the market's 1.00 benchmark.
  • Realized relative Sharpe is 0.99 over the fund's 252-month live sample.
  • Strongest non-market tilts point toward size (smb) (β=0.37) and toward momentum (umd) (β=0.22).
  • Dividend valuation is close to its historical median at 107 on a 100 median scale.
Best-fit classification
US Equity FF6 US Regression basis: USD Adj. R² 0.839 Fit window: 252M Backtest basis: 754M

This fund is classified as US Equity because that factor set produced the strongest accepted fit. Backtested figures use the winning model's full factor history (1963-Jul → 2026-Apr, 754 months), while the betas themselves are estimated over the fund-overlap window (252 months).

Factor return decomposition
Each bar = βi × factor return, geometrically annualized. Summary rows are computed from the combined monthly series they name.

How are these computed?

Currency basis: returns and factor contributions on this page are in USD. Fama-French US 6-factor set (Ken French data library, monthly, USD basis).

Classification winner: FF6 US with Adj. R² 0.839.

Factor context panel: each non-market row compares the current fund with stronger-fit public peers using FF6 US. Beta mode shows raw loadings, percentile mode ranks the fund within the positive-exposure subset, and the linked ticker points to the strongest peer in that factor.

Backtested Sim. applies XMMO's regression betas to the full factor history (1963-Jul → 2026-Apr, 754 months). Individual factor bars show separately annualized sleeves, while the subtotal rows are computed from the combined monthly non-market and smart-beta series directly. The Sharpe uses XMMO's realized in-sample volatility as the denominator — a deliberately conservative choice, since fixed-loading factor returns are smoother than what any real fund actually delivers.

Realized applies the same betas to the factor returns observed during XMMO's lifetime only (2005-Apr → 2026-Mar). The Sharpe is the fund's actual excess return over its actual volatility. Full methodology →

FAQ

What does this XMMO ETF page measure?

This page evaluates XMMO using factor regressions, relative Sharpe, valuation, and peer context. It is designed for ETF due diligence rather than quote tracking.

Why can Backtested Sim. and Realized differ?

Both views use the same estimated betas. The difference is the return window: Backtested Sim. applies them to the full factor history, while Realized applies them only during the fund's live sample.

Why might a high-return fund still look weak here?

A fund can post strong raw returns and still look unattractive on this screen if its non-market factor capture is weak, its implementation drag is high, or its volatility-adjusted return profile is weaker than the market.

How should US investors use this page?

Use it as a starting point for ETF selection: check whether the fund's live behavior, valuation, and peer context line up with the story the product label implies.

Research disclaimer

Factor decomposition shows what XMMO's historical betas would have earned under each scenario — not a forecast, not investment advice. Backtested simulation assumes loadings stay fixed across the long sample, which is unrealistic for any real-world fund. Use this as one input to ETF due diligence, not a substitute for it.

Important context

VerifiedBeta publishes educational ETF research, not personalized investment advice, portfolio management, or security recommendations. Funds that screen well here can still be unsuitable for your objectives, taxes, liquidity needs, or constraints. Review fund documents, methodology assumptions, and your own circumstances before acting. See the full disclaimer.
