Roboadviser Beats the S&P 500 in Its Second Year – The Money Pouch

“Invest wisely and slowly with automated ETF stock trading”

The Money Pouch is a free stock trading app that is now entering its second year servicing the Asian and expat markets worldwide.

In its first year, all three strategies delivering strong positive returns, including a 19% return by the adventurous strategy in only 8 months.  In its second year, the conservative strategy beat the S&P 500 despite choppy markets.

However, 2018 proved to be much tougher with the S&P 500 losing nearly 7%. The S&P 500 is a basket of the largest companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange such as Microsoft, Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon and Coca-Cola.

On a positive note, The Money Pouch’s conservative strategy beat the S&P500 in 2018 during a tough year for trading in choppy markets caused in part by the US shutdown, US-China trade war, increasing interest rates and tightening of the Federal Reserve’s bond buying programme.

The conservative strategy uses a momentum strategy to hold a mix of equities, treasuries, gold and/or cash. Usually, the strategy performs best in prolongued bull markets like in 2017 or sustained bear markets, but even in a choppy market, the conservative strategy managed to beat the S&P500 by year-end despite the heavy sell off in stocks in what is typically the best time of year for stock trading.

The adventurous strategy closely tracked its benchmark, finishing the year around 10% down, despite the heavy sell-off. Investment Managers at The Money Pouch expect this strategy to outperform in the coming two months and in general, over a five-to-ten year period.

The balanced strategy underperformed the adventurous strategy and this strategy will be adjusted to reduce risk and improve returns in 2019.

The Money Pouch allows residents of Asia to set up a free stock trading account. Then, the accounts are managed for clients automatically by Hudson James Investment Management via pre-programed stock trading algorithms.

A spokesman for The Money Pouch commented, “We are expanding our app globally to allow investors worldwide to download our automated trading app. The Money Pouch now has over 10,000 app downloads and clients are signing up at an increasing rate. Clients who already have an existing Interactive Brokers account can simply download the app, fill out the risk questionnaire and simply scan and sign a one-page document to transfer management of their trading account”.

Newer clients will need to answer additional questions and will also need to provide some documents for compliance.

The Money Pouch now has a simple introductory video which explains how clients can set up a new account in only ten minutes. Accounts usually take only a couple of days to pass compliance checks if all documents are in order and then clients can make a deposit and start investing.

The Money Pouch helps professionals who are freelancing, agents who work on commission, part-time employees and contract workers who often can only invest periodically and need the freedom that a roboadviser can give them. Most expats invest via large insurance companies, where they would have to set up a 10-25 year savings plan, which are not very flexible. A roboadviser can help these types of employees to save without having to invest on a regular basis.

Investors can top up the free app whenever convenient and clients have the ability to take withdrawals from accounts when needed, for example, if clients need cash in an emergency. There are no set up costs and no exit costs. There are no “lock-in” contracts.
