For Immediate ReleaseChicago, IL – December 9, 2024 – Stocks in this week’s article are Sezzle Inc. SEZL, Impinj, Inc. PI and ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. ZIM.3 Momentum Anomaly Picks as Labor Market Concerns Increase VolatilityThe broader U.S. equity markets have witnessed significant volatility over the past few trading days as concerns regarding the labor market conditions amid potential policy shifts under the new administration took center stage. The markets were further weighed down by apprehensions about the pace of interest rate cuts as healthy economic growth offered some leeway to go slow on the proposed monetary easing. With key U.S. employment data scheduled for release today, markets have taken a hit after scripting record-high tallies on tech-sector resurgence.Although the economy is likely to have added about 214,000 jobs in November based on consensus estimates, the exact figure could offer better insight into the Federal Reserve’s next policy moves. Amid the uncertainty, investors often seek to employ time-tested winning strategies to fetch sustained profits. One of the most successful game plans to beat the blues is to bet on momentum stocks like Sezzle Inc., Impinj, Inc. and ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. when value or growth investing fails to generate the desired profits.This approach primarily tends to follow the adage, “the trend is your friend.” At its core, momentum investing is “buying high and selling higher.” It is based on the idea that once a stock establishes a trend, it is more likely to continue in that direction because of the momentum that is already behind it. Momentum investing is a way to profit from the general human tendency to extrapolate current trends into the future. It is based on that gap in time before the mean reversion occurs, i.e., before prices become rational again.Momentum strategies have been known to be alpha-generative over a long period and across market stages. So, this strategy is quite tricky to implement, as detecting these trends is no child’s play. Here, we have created a strategy to help investors get in on these fast movers and rake in handsome gains.
