For investors looking for momentum, Invesco S&P 500 Low Volatility ETF (SPLV - Free Report) is probably a suitable pick. The fund just hit a 52-week high and is up 35.9% from its 52-week low price of $42.23/share.
Let’s take a look at the fund and its near-term outlook to gain an insight into where it might be headed:
SPLV in Focus
The fund is based on the S&P 500 Low Volatility Index. It has AUM of $7.62 billion and charges expense ratio of 25 basis points, as stated in the prospectus.
Why the Move?
