FRANKFURT, Germany (December 18, 2024) – MarketVector IndexesTM (“MarketVector”), in collaboration with GammaRoad Capital Partners, celebrates the one-year anniversary of the MarketVectorTM-GammaRoad U.S. Equity Strategy Index (MVGMMA). The strategy provides a systematic, rules-based approach that seeks to capture long-term equity returns while mitigating downside risks.

The buy-and-hold approach to owning equities requires the ability and willingness to live through substantial drawdowns in market value from time to time. The majority of investment solutions that seek to mitigate downside risk employ options-based strategies that, by design, can significantly limit upside capture and result in lower-than-market returns over time. To address these issues, the MarketVectorTM-GammaRoad U.S. Equity Strategy Index (MVGMMA) provides a unique and innovative approach that aims to provide meaningful downside protection while capitalizing on the most favorable market environments without the structural impediment of capped upside.

The Index’s methodology rotates between U.S. equities and Treasury Bill exposure, guided by three key risk measures: consumer confidence, fundamental economic strength, and price direction. When all three measures are bearish, the strategy holds only Treasury Bills. When all three signals are bullish, the strategy holds its maximum equity exposure. If the signals are mixed, the strategy holds a combination of equity exposure and Treasury Bills.

”We are thrilled to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the MarketVector™-GammaRoad U.S. Equity Strategy Index and our partnership with MarketVector,” said Jordan Rizzuto, Managing Partner and CIO of GammaRoad Capital Partners. “We look forward to further collaboration and bringing to market systematic, uniquely constructed strategies that seek to strengthen portfolios and reduce downside risk,” he added.

“This anniversary underscores the strength of our partnership with GammaRoad Capital Partners and the demand for innovative strategies that redefine traditional equity investing approaches,” said Steven Schoenfeld, CEO of MarketVector. “We remain committed to empowering investors with tools that effectively navigate today’s dynamic markets, and we look forward to a long and productive partnership with GammaRoad,” he continued.

As MarketVector continues to expand its thematic and quantitative index offerings, the MarketVectorTM-GammaRoad U.S. Equity Strategy Index (MVGMMA) exemplifies its dedication to innovation and delivering cutting-edge financial solutions.
