<U/O> Matrix via Applied Indexation segments include Wind, Solar, Fuel Cells, Smart Grid, Water, LED, Biofuel, Automotive, Natural Gas, Storage and Aviation plus further classifications detailing component member assignments based on corporate business segment operations (12 segments, 60 classifications, 250 single and multi-listed component members; n=74).

<U/O> Applied Indexation methodology introduces the concept of business segment operations (BSOs) as a means demonstrating the capacity to link component member corporate profiles within a designated benchmark index/proxy across capitalization and asset classes. On this basis, differentiated growth rates embedded in a company's revenue line provide an opportunity to construct composite Alpha and Alpha-Beta screens borne from the refinement of standardized component member sector/industry nomenclature assignments and modularity offered by BSOs. Competitive market information and corresponding BSO quantitative inversions capture respective points and relative depths of inflection, more accurately profiling fundamental drivers of valuation.

<U/O> Matrix via Applied Indexation illustrates an iterative process designed to improve peer group analytics and isolate ranged performance dispersion among benchmark component members. In just one abstraction, recent market- and equal-weighted portfolio strategy total return performance differentials serve to underscore the importance of a disciplined latticed approach in managing the fluidity of cross-sector multi-factor variables persistent in alternating/convergent/divergent/reverting economic and policy cycles/subcycles (investable motifs: conventional, index-plus, long/short, niche, thematic, megatrend and factor-based).

At Venn’s intersection, sets and subsets of competing interests endure. The dynamic principles of BSOs are three-fold: 1) multinational and Large-cap companies function as benchmark sector/industry/subindustry proxies based on scale (Alpha-Beta), 2) Small- and Mid-cap companies participate as competitive peers (Alpha) and, hence, acquisition candidates and 3) among subsets of 1) and 2) are companies provisioning multiple economic sectors, asset classes and geographies. Successful trading strategies (conventional, systematic, factor-based) and adaptive investable motifs (niche, thematic, megatrend) isolate Value in Growth, and Growth in Value, by aligning the prospective Alpha drivers directly associated with ecosystem composition and supply chain verticals.
