How is the index different from Midcap index1?
What is the investment philosophy of launching HDFC Life Midcap Momentum Fund?
The Fund aims to generate long-term capital appreciation from a portfolio of mid-cap stocks that are aligned to the MidCap Momentum Index.
The index chooses to invest in the top 50 companies within the Nifty midcap 150 index based on momentum score. The companies in the index are selected based on on its 6-month and 12-month price return, adjusted for volatility. Stock weights are based on a combination of the stock’s Normalized Momentum Score and its free-float market capitalization. On the other hand, companies in the midcap index are purely based on free float market capitalization.
Given that midcap segment offers compounding returns as few companies of todays would become larger cap companies of tomorrow’s, the investment philosophy is to combine the same with Momentum Investing, that is rule-based investing system that invests in companies that have been doing well in terms of stock performance and select those potential outperformers. Momentum investing is based on the investing into stocks that have been doing well in the past. Outperforming stocks generally attract more investors and this trend further solidifies, these stocks potentially outperform the broad midcap market further.
