The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

1. 12MHI? is a basic momentum/risk indicator. If the class is not within 5% of its 12-month high, the signal is Cash.

2. Rank is based on an average rank of return across 12 months, 6 months and 3 month excluding most recent month. (AlphaArchitect approach) Returns from etfscreen.com, an excellent and long standing website - please support them. (For example etfscreen.com: etfscreen.com - etfscreen Resources and Information.).
