QLC: Factor Triad Delivers Good But Not Great Performance, Worth Shortlisting

  • QLC is a passively managed ETF mixing quality, value, and momentum. It is heavy in mega-caps and IT, with almost all holdings being S&P 500 constituents. QLC has surprised to the upside since September 2024, but there is no rush for an upgrade, as long-term returns are still unconvincing. Following this high-quality ETF makes sense for investors, but a Buy rating is excessive.
