U/O Applied Indexation …a brief tutorial.

Topical discussions regarding the nature of performance dispersion among Value and Growth equity indexes and, importantly, their constituents often ignore the inherent commonality of component member business segment operations (BSOs) across both baskets. Proprietary research suggests an approach to portfolio strategies isolating the Venn of capital markets offers an opportunity to exploit standard capital market delineations and enhance absolute return performance against respective benchmarks.

In examining the Clean Energy space for instance, introducing a Renewables/Diversified Industrials/Technology sector-themed overlay begins an iterative process creating a latticed framework to lever a combination of competitive market information (e.g., benchmark ETF - PBW) and applied indexation methodology. Corporate profile BSOs replace broad industry nomenclature assignments at this point, differentiated growth rates are observed and portfolio allocations are rationalized to readily improve peer group analytics and valuation.

For reference, 69 PBW (3QTR21) component members are selected from a of total 71 (21 designated industry groups) to develop effective Tier-2 Alpha/Alpha-Beta screens by populating 201 unique placements along 10 segments and 52 BSOs. To illustrate, simply click thru to Q3 b-platform release and replay of ‘<U/O> Applied Indexation …a brief tutorial.’ voiceover slide show (https://www.universalorbit.com/a-brief-tutorial).

PBW CY21 -18.9%, YTD performance dispersion: +453.5%/-82.4% (102721). 3Q21 -16.8%; capitalization (weight): Small-cap 25.9%, Mid-cap 48.7%, Large-cap 25.3%.

Appendix:

To advance analysis, needed is a reconciliation of specific business segment operations among representative component members apart from the general sector designations presented in standard fund reporting.

At Venn’s intersection, sets and subsets of competing interests endure. Proprietary research suggests its dynamic principle in relation to business segment operations is three-fold: 1) multinational and Large-cap companies function as benchmark sector/industry/subindustry proxies based on scale and business segment operations, 2) Small- and Mid-cap companies compete as peers and are delineated by business segment operations and 3) among subsets of 1) and 2) are vendors provisioning multiple economic sectors, asset classes and geographies. Successful trading strategies (systematic, momentum, thematic) isolate Value in Growth by not overlooking the prospective Alpha drivers directly associated with ecosystem and supply chain verticals or profiles of Small- and Mid-cap companies functioning as competitive peers and, hence, acquisition candidates.

From a portfolio management perspective, designing strategies based on business segment operations lends the advantage of iterative index applications by exploiting the inefficiencies in third party data nomenclature assignments which inevitability skew peer group analytics and valuation. While means and methods vary of course, a latticed framework—gleaned from competitive market information, built by segments/classifications, interpolated for integrity—exhibits the proportionality revealed by business segment operation considerations and distinguishes differentiated growth rates beyond simple revenue line aggregation. Additionally, a developed thesis for security selection in the Energy complex incorporates: 1) a barbell to CAPE as an extrapolation, 2) a barbell of Cleantech to Diversified Industrials as a foundation and 3) a barbell of Value to Growth implicit in corporate anatomy.

Common portfolio position weight allocations (0.5% < x < 5.0%) may be aligned consistent with long/short peak-to-trough cyclical/counter-cyclical exposures and emerging technologies among individual and multi-listed component members. Importantly, often discarded negative PE companies are included to capture points of inflection for cash flow growth and forward earnings momentum. In the end, a structure of analysis in the Energy complex is borne from the examination of business segment operations within diverse companies across economic sectors and asset classes plus, on a standalone basis, competitive peers—by definition, Alpha is singular.
