DAA Updates Will Be Posted This Weekend

Nov 29, 2019
Listen to Article:

The financial markets are closing early today at 1 p.m. Eastern Time due to the holidays. Holiday-shortened sessions like today’s are typically low-volume, which makes it a poor day to trade large quantities of certain ETFs involved in DAA this month.

While Sector Rotation’s upcoming changes were clearly defined enough for us to have that write-up done in advance of today’s short market session, the same is not true of DAA this month. Deciding those changes, writing them up coherently, and getting them out early enough for SMI members to trade before the early 1 p.m. close isn’t practical, even if there weren’t concerns about the market’s low volume impacting our ability to get good pricing on those transactions.

As a result, we’ll be evaluating the final November data after the market closes today and will post the Dynamic Asset Allocation updates for December over the weekend.
