When an EW, non-rebalanced index of the major U.S.-listed copper producers is compared to the iShares U.S. Basic Materials ETF (IYM), Fundametrix shows us that after some choppiness over the past 2 years, these copper equities began showing definite strength against IYM at the start of 2024's second quarter. #copper #gold

The chart below was featured in our recent piece, "KCR’s Dividend Portfolio: An Evidence Based Approach" ↓ https://loom.ly/2XUfWVo It shows the annualized return & standard deviation of KCR's Dividend Portfolio against its selection universe. KCR's Dividend Model Portfolio has historically outperformed the top two quintiles of yield. We'd note there are simple things to avoid, like #stocks in the top 2 quartiles of yield with negative FCF, that have horrible returns and extreme volatility (group #3) In addition, we ran our model Dividend Portfolio against the Russell 1000 Value Index & found that our model produced excess returns.

The chart below is featured in our recent piece, "A Quixotic Crusade for Common Sense?" ↓ https://loom.ly/HuQ1Xg0 It compares the performance of KCR's Dividend Portfolio against the benchmarks during years the S&P was up (first 4 bars) and when it was down (last 4 bars). You can see that KCR's Dividend Portfolio would have had returns similar to the benchmarks when the S&P was up. However, when the S&P was down, KCR's portfolio would provide significant downside protection - falling just 3.1% while the benchmarks fell between 10-20%. Simply put, KCR’s quality-focused approach to sourcing dividend income has historically been a relative underperformer in up years while offering investors possible downside protection.

What’s happening in DC? Here is your week ahead: Tuesday, June 4 The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission will host its GMAC meeting. The focus will be largely on Basel Endgame, but we expect the Digital Assets Group to present on agenda items they are currently working on. https://lnkd.in/ef3bMEKP Wednesday, June 5 U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Inclusion will host a hearing: “Next Generation Infrastructure: How Tokenization of Real-World Assets Will Facilitate Efficient Markets.” https://lnkd.in/e5miNFnh Chair Gary Gensler will give keynote remarks at the ISDA/SIFMA U.S. Department of the Treasury Forum. We expect Gensler to be largely focused on transitioning from T+2 to T+1, and CCI will be watching for any important implications for the crypto and blockchain industry. https://lnkd.in/eQy7Fh5e Chair Benham will give the keynote at the Piper Sandler Global Exchange & Trading Conference 2024. Chair Benham has been a tireless advocate on the need for new market structure legislation, so CCI will be watching to see whether he addresses the recent House passage of FIT 21. https://lnkd.in/eMjUgYEy Thursday, June 6 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission will host an Investor Advisory Committee that will focus on the role of social media and AI when it comes to investment advice and complex trade strategies. https://lnkd.in/eBqEgg8T
