If you had adhered to the 'Sell in May and go away' adage, you would have missed the rally in the US market this month. US stock market had one of the best month of May in 9 years fueled by the rally in small caps and basic material sector. Investors shrugged off the uncertainties created by the Italy's political turmoil and risk of the potential trade war as steel tariff is slapped onto US allies.
This month, my US portfolio outperformed the S&P500 again, posting a gain of 4.03% while S&P500 posted a gain of 2.43%. The reason for the outperformence this month is due to the rally in small cap stocks and basic material sector which the portfolio is currently overweight in. The portfolio YTD return has turned positive to +0.07%.
Total return since inception (from June 2016) has increased to 74.20%.
With the recently rally in small cap stocks, the system has turned bullish in the US market for the short term as more and more stocks are reversing into uptrend (see, I am not a perma-bear =) ).
