IO DOW FUNDS after 3 years 5 STARS...
A strong result after 3 challanging years in equity markets. The systematic, rule-based approach was able to navigate our investors through different market conditions without damage and emotions. Market drops (Q4 2018), rallies 2017,2019 and a crash like Covid-19 with storng short term rebounds were no reason for the strategy not to (out)perform against their ETF benchmark.
IO DAX Fund +54.58% since March 18 2020 - +9.29% outperformance vs ETF benchmark....
The financial markets are unpredictable, as we have just learned again. Therefore it is important to pursue a focused investment strategy. The IO strategy,
which is systematic and rule-based, was able to prove its full strength even in the strong recovery phases of Covid-19. Investors were able to enjoy above-average performance during the strong
recovery. This is usually not the case with most active investment strategies, as they always lag behind the market. Emotions and noises influence the investment decisions and thus the
long-term performance.

April 2020
BEST MONTH
IO DOW +11.36%, IO DAX +12.84%, IO SLI +9.67%
out of the frying pan into the fire!
Investors still SELL low and BUY high!
As a fund manager, you have the advantage of the little secret of Investor behavior! The IO Fund strategy is built for long-term investors, who don't like to trade, believe in the long
term-global growth of the economy, and know that the financial market is "random-walk" and not predictable.
But the reality looks very different -! Investors still trade in-and-out within our funds. They normally buy HIGH and SELL low. Fascinating for us as managers to see this "live" on a daily
basis.
The fear and greed are very close. So it's no surprise that the BEST and WORST days of an equity market are also very "close."
April 2020 was the BEST month since 1987 for the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 Index! Sad for those with thought they can predict the market and sold their
investments.
And we would not be surprised if they come back and try to be a smart stock picker. out of the frying pan into the fire!
Why it's not different this time! - watch the video here

IO DAX Fund - the European market was over the last 2 years a difficult place for investors. In the last months, the IO DAX fund had his most difficult time since we run the strategy (2004). However, in recent weeks we have seen a significant resistance of our strategy to the benchmark, which means that it is beginning to outperform its ETF peer. Time to invest into the European equity market? Time will tell as always.
IO Dow Jones Fund - despite difficult markets and Covid-19, the IO Dow Jones Fund was able to outperform the SPDR ETF DIA by +7.50% net performance since inception Jan 2017

Liqudity, Fund Size When it comes to fund selection, investor check the duration (since inception) of a fund, assets under management and other criterias.
In our view what really matters is: liquidity of the fund and the funds investments (underlying), performance since launch against benchmark, volatility - all the rest is "good to know" but will not help you to make any forecast about the fund strategy!
Control what you can control and don't speculate!
