// PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT:
Low volatility stocks refer to stocks with lower-than-average price movement. Theoretically, low volatility stocks should fall less than the broader market when the market drops and rise less than the broader market when the market rises, thereby muting peaks and valleys. Interestingly though, history has told a slightly different story that has favored the upside.
Traditional wisdom, and specifically, the capital asset pricing model or CAPM, maintains that there should be a positive relationship between stock risk and return. That is, over sufficiently long investing horizons, more risk should provide the potential for more reward. It should follow that higher-volatility stocks should provide higher returns, but empirical evidence has shown that relationship to be largely flat and sometimes even negative. This is known as the “low volatility anomaly.”
In short, defensive, low-volatility stocks have historically delivered higher returns than the most volatile stocks. The low volatility factor has been pervasive across geographies and asset types for the past 90+ years.
ETFs have emerged based on the low volatility factor to provide investors with a vehicle to limit downside movement without picking individual stocks. Investors should note, however, that the sector weightings of these low volatility ETFs may not match that of the broader market, as exposure to higher-volatility stocks and sectors is eliminated or reduced.
My suggested low volatility ETFs are:
USMV
SPLV
EFAV
All of these low volatility ETFs should be available at any major broker. My choice is M1 Finance. I’ll provide a link below to my comprehensive review of M1.
