Where it fits

Best uses and visible cautions

Start with fit first. If the module does not match your market or your problem, the rest of the evidence will not save the workflow.

Best use cases
  • Covers the top seven economies KRISHA supports with one ETF-specific workflow.
  • Ranks ETFs using momentum, liquidity, low volatility, and sector rotation context.
  • Useful for sector rotation review, top-down watchlists, and ETF comparison with country context.
Important cautions
  • ETF shortlists still need your own portfolio, tax, and product-structure judgment.
  • Country ETFs and sector ETFs can still become concentrated even when the wrapper looks diversified.

How it works

Engine focus, market-native assumptions, and learning links

This section explains what the lane is optimized for and which market-specific frictions or assumptions shape the shortlist.

What this module is optimized for

Optimized for liquid ETFs where momentum, liquidity, and sector participation provide a cleaner top-down comparison layer than stock-by-stock screening alone.

Quality controls
  • Separate ETF universes for each supported economy instead of one combined cross-market list.
  • Liquidity floor and country-context checks before ranking.
  • Sector-rotation score added on top of momentum and low-volatility signals.
What matters in this market specifically
  • ETF shortlists are most useful when you want a broad or sector-specific research checkpoint before going deeper.
  • Sector and thematic ETFs can move differently from broad market ETFs, so rotation context matters.
What a clean shortlist can still miss
  • Issuer structure, tracking error, and expense ratio still need review outside the engine.
  • Country-level ETF results should not be treated as a substitute for understanding benchmark concentration.
Proof and risks

Diagnostics, walk-forward evidence, and failure modes

This is the evidence layer. It should make the module easier to trust in context, not easier to over-trust.

What could go wrong?
  • Issuer structure, tracking error, and expense ratio still need review outside the engine.
  • Country-level ETF results should not be treated as a substitute for understanding benchmark concentration.
  • ETF shortlists still need your own portfolio, tax, and product-structure judgment.
  • Country ETFs and sector ETFs can still become concentrated even when the wrapper looks diversified.
  • Fast regime reversals, event shocks, and crowded benchmark leadership can all make a clean-looking screen lag badly.
