Stock Forecast: AI-Powered Industry L2 ETFs Strategy with Maximum Sector Exposure

The following trading strategy was developed using I Know First’s AI Algorithm daily forecasts from January 1^st, 2020, to April 1^st, 2024, with a focus on S&P 500 stocks selected based on the signal and predictable filters. This strategy is available to our institutional clients: hedge funds, banks, and investment houses, as a tier 2 service on top of tier 1 (the daily forecast).

The strategy involves trading GICS level 2 ETFs based on the majority direction. Level 2 Industries goes deep into specific industries. For example, within the technology sector (Level 1), you might find industries like semiconductors, software, and hardware. These industries offer a more detailed perspective on the market.

We select the top 8 industries with more stocks from a selected stock universe based on the signal filter. ETFs in our portfolio are weighted depending on the number of stocks from the selected stock universe in each industry. For example, among the top 3, if there are 10 stocks from XHB, 5 from XTL, and 5 from XRT, they would be weighted as 50%, 25%, and 25% in the portfolio, respectively.

Moreover, the strategy controls the majority direction. The term “majority direction” refers to our predictions for stocks, upon which we base our positions. This decision is guided by a number of long and short stock forecasts. If the count of long stock forecasts surpasses that of short stock forecasts, the majority direction is to go long, and we construct a long portfolio. Conversely, if the count of short stock forecasts is higher, we assume a short portfolio.

In this strategy, we open our portfolio based on the majority direction. If it is long, we pick the top 8 Sector ETFs with more components in our stock universe and weigh them using the counting-weighted method. Additionally, we ensure that exposure to any ETF does not exceed 10%, with the remaining funds invested in SPY. If the majority direction is short, we buy SPY and leave 50% in cash. We implement monthly rebalancing in this strategy.

The strategy provides a positive return of 531.69% which exceeded the S&P 500 return by 472.50%. Below we can notice the strategy behavior for each year.

The I Know First strategy has an impressive Sharpe ratio (which compares the return of an investment with its risk) of 1.06 and a Sortino ratio (which compares the return of an investment with its given level of downside risk) of 1.49.

We can observe the strategy alongside the drawdowns of the S&P 500 for the analysis period. Overall, the IKF strategy experienced fewer drawdowns than the S&P 500, making it not only high-return but also less risky compared to the S&P 500.

I Know First Algorithm – Seeking the Key &  Generating Stock Market Forecast

The I Know First predictive algorithm is a successful attempt to discover the rules of the market that enable us to make accurate stock market forecasts. Taking advantage of artificial intelligence and machine learning and using insights of chaos theory and self-similarity (the fractals), the algorithmic system is able to predict the behavior of over 13,500 markets. The key principle of the algorithm lies in the fact that a stock’s price is a function of many factors interacting non-linearly. Therefore, it is advantageous to use elements of artificial neural networks and genetic algorithms. How does it work? At first, an analysis of inputs is performed, ranking them according to their significance in predicting the target stock price. Then multiple models are created and tested utilizing 15 years of historical data. Only the best-performing models are kept while the rest are rejected. Models are refined every day, as new data becomes available. As the algorithm is purely empirical and self-learning, there is no human bias in the models and the market forecast system adapts to the new reality every day while still following general historical rules.
