Positions

The portfolio is made up of 100% stock ETFs, with a heavy tilt toward focused themes like semiconductors, momentum, telecom, and defense. Two positions alone – a semiconductor ETF and a specialized ETF wrapper – make up about 40% of the total, so it’s quite top‑heavy. There’s also exposure to broad US large caps via S&P 500 and Nasdaq-style funds, but these are secondary. Because everything is in equities and many funds are niche, this structure is built for growth rather than stability. With only about six months of data, it’s important not to assume this aggressive mix will always behave like it has so far.

Growth Info

Over the roughly six‑month period, $1,000 grew to about $1,066, implying a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.64%. CAGR is like your “average speed” over the trip, smoothing out bumps along the way. Over this short window, the portfolio beat both the US and global markets, which actually showed negative CAGRs. Max drawdown – the largest peak‑to‑trough drop – was about -10.9%, slightly worse than benchmarks. That’s a normal trade‑off for a growth‑oriented, concentrated setup. But with only half a year of history, this outperformance could just be a lucky period; it doesn’t yet tell a reliable long‑term story.

Asset classes Info

  • Stocks
    100%

All assets here are equities, with 0% in bonds, cash, or alternatives. Equities historically have offered higher long‑term growth but also deeper and more frequent drawdowns. Being 100% in stocks means the portfolio will move more with market booms and busts, with little built‑in cushion from safer assets. For someone with a long horizon and strong risk tolerance, that can be acceptable. For anyone needing capital in the short to medium term, this lack of ballast can feel painful during market corrections. The strong equity focus is aligned with a growth profile, but it’s inherently less resilient.

Sectors Info

  • Technology
    46%
  • Industrials
    25%
  • Utilities
    7%
  • Telecommunications
    7%
  • Energy
    4%

    3%
  • Health Care
    3%
  • Consumer Staples
    2%
  • Financials
    2%
  • Basic Materials
    2%

Sector exposure is dominated by technology at 46% and industrials at 25%, with the rest spread fairly thinly across other areas. Tech plus industrials together make up over two‑thirds of the portfolio, which is much more concentrated than broad market benchmarks. Heavy tech and related themes can do very well when innovation, earnings, and risk appetite are strong, but they can be hit hard when interest rates rise or sentiment turns. Industrials here likely tie into defense and aerospace themes, adding a different cycle but still not “defensive” in the safe-haven sense. The sector mix is unapologetically growth‑oriented and cyclical.

Regions Info

  • North America
    87%
  • Europe Developed
    5%
  • Asia Developed
    5%
  • Japan
    1%
  • Europe Emerging
    1%
  • Asia Emerging
    1%

Geographically, about 87% of the portfolio is in North America, with relatively small allocations to developed Europe and Asia, and tiny slices in emerging markets. That’s a clear home‑country and US‑centric bias compared with global indices, which spread more evenly across regions. A strong US tilt has been rewarded over much of the last decade, but it also links results heavily to one economy, one policy regime, and mostly one currency. If US stocks underperform other regions for a stretch, this portfolio will largely ride that pattern. On the positive side, the geographic picture is at least clear and intentional.

Market capitalization Info

  • Large-cap
    39%
  • Mega-cap
    28%
  • Mid-cap
    20%
  • Small-cap
    8%
  • Micro-cap
    5%

The market cap breakdown leans toward larger companies: roughly two‑thirds in mega and large caps, with the rest in mid, small, and micro caps. That provides some balance: big, established names can add stability and liquidity, while smaller firms bring higher growth potential and higher volatility. A pure small‑cap tilt often whipsaws more; this mix is more blended, although the thematic nature of the funds may still amplify swings. Relative to a standard broad index, this is not radically skewed in size terms, which is a nice anchor of normality inside an otherwise aggressive, thematic setup.

  • Top 10 total 23.86%

Looking through ETF top holdings, a lot of risk clusters in a few big tech and chip names. NVIDIA, Broadcom, TSMC, AMD, ASML, and Lam Research together already make up a noticeable slice of total exposure, all accessed indirectly through multiple funds. This kind of overlap is “hidden concentration” – it feels diversified because there are many tickers, but under the hood, the same companies repeat. Since the data only covers ETF top‑10s, actual overlap is likely higher. The takeaway: when several funds target similar themes, they can behave like amplified bets on the same underlying giants.

Factor exposures are estimated using statistical models based on historical data and measure systematic (market-relative) tilts, not absolute portfolio characteristics. Results may vary depending on the analysis period, data availability, and currency of the underlying assets.

Factor exposure shows a very strong tilt toward momentum and a very low tilt to size, meaning the portfolio heavily favors recent winners and skews away from smaller companies. Momentum investing focuses on stocks that have been going up recently, which can perform well in steady uptrends but can suffer sharp reversals when leadership changes. The very low size exposure suggests an emphasis on larger, more established names within those themes, rather than small speculative bets. Value, yield, and low volatility are all on the low side, so this isn’t a “cheap, steady, income” portfolio; it’s a “chase what’s working now” style.

Risk contribution Info

    29.5%
  • Exchange Traded Concepts Trust
    Weight: 18.12%

    6.5%
  • Invesco S&P 500® Momentum ETF
    Weight: 9.47%
    6.2%
  • Top 5 risk contribution 73.1%

Risk contribution shows how much each holding drives overall volatility, which can differ a lot from its weight. The semiconductor ETF, at about 22% weight, contributes nearly 30% of total risk; the Exchange Traded Concepts Trust also punches above its weight. Together with the telecom ETF, the top three positions account for over 60% of the portfolio’s total risk. That means portfolio behavior is dominated by just a few funds, even more than their weights suggest. Rebalancing or trimming highly volatile positions is one way some investors align risk with their comfort level, but that’s a strategic choice, not a necessity.

Redundant positions Info

  • Invesco QQQ Trust
    Vanguard S&P 500 ETF
    Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF
    High correlation
  • VanEck Semiconductor ETF
    Invesco PHLX Semiconductor ETF
    High correlation

Several ETFs here move almost identically, especially the pairings between QQQ, the Nasdaq 100 ETF, and the S&P 500 ETF, plus the two semiconductor funds. Correlation just means how often they move in the same direction; high correlation reduces diversification because different tickers end up acting like one big combined bet. When markets are calm, this overlap might not be obvious, but in a sharp sell‑off, all these correlated pieces are likely to drop together. The advantage is that the portfolio’s behavior is more predictable; the downside is that there are fewer true offsets when things get rough.

Risk vs. return

This chart shows the Efficient Frontier, calculated using your current assets with different allocation combinations. It highlights the best balance between risk and return based on historical data. "Efficient" portfolios maximize returns for a given risk or minimize risk for a given return. Portfolios below the curve are less efficient. This is informational and not a recommendation to buy or sell any assets.

On the risk‑return chart, the current portfolio sits noticeably below the efficient frontier. The Sharpe ratio – a simple measure of return per unit of risk – is 0.58, while the best achievable mix of the same holdings (no new funds) reaches about 2.01. The frontier shows that, with different weights, you could target better expected returns at roughly the same or even lower risk. The sizeable 20‑point gap suggests the current allocation is not using these building blocks as efficiently as possible. With only six months of data, the exact numbers are shaky, but the direction of the message is still useful.

Dividends Info

  • iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF 0.50%
  • Exchange Traded Concepts Trust 0.90%
  • Invesco QQQ Trust 0.50%
  • Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF 0.60%
  • VanEck Semiconductor ETF 0.30%
  • Invesco PHLX Semiconductor ETF 0.50%
  • Invesco S&P 500® Momentum ETF 0.90%
  • Vanguard S&P 500 ETF 1.20%
  • SPDR® S&P Telecom ETF 1.10%
  • MarketDesk Focused U.S. Momentum ETF 0.30%
  • Weighted yield (per year) 0.65%

The portfolio’s estimated dividend yield is around 0.65%, well below the yield of more income‑focused or balanced allocations. That’s normal for growth and momentum‑oriented funds, which tend to emphasize companies that reinvest profits instead of paying them out. Dividends can provide a smoother return stream and some psychological comfort in downturns, but they’re not the main driver here. For someone seeking regular cash flow, this setup may feel lean. For a growth‑focused investor willing to let returns come mostly from price changes, the low yield is consistent with the overall strategy.

Ongoing product costs Info

  • iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF 0.40%
  • Exchange Traded Concepts Trust 0.85%
  • Invesco QQQ Trust 0.20%
  • Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF 0.15%
  • VanEck Semiconductor ETF 0.35%
  • Invesco PHLX Semiconductor ETF 0.19%
  • Invesco S&P 500® Momentum ETF 0.13%
  • Vanguard S&P 500 ETF 0.03%
  • SPDR® S&P Telecom ETF 0.35%
  • Weighted costs total (per year) 0.34%

Total ongoing fund costs (TER) average about 0.34%, which is reasonable given the mix of plain‑vanilla and specialized ETFs. The broad S&P 500 exposure is very cheap at 0.03%, which helps offset the higher‑fee thematic and momentum funds, some of which sit around 0.35–0.85%. Costs compound quietly over time – every 0.1% saved each year is money that keeps working for you instead of going to providers. For a niche, factor‑tilted portfolio, these fees are not excessive, and the overall cost level supports long‑term performance reasonably well if returns stay strong.
