September IMX
The September 2018 Investor Movement Index for the four weeks ended September 28, 2018 reveals:
Retail investor optimism continued to increase during the September period, with TD Ameritrade clients dialing up their exposure to equity markets. Despite light volatility during the period, TD Ameritrade client accounts were impacted by net buying activity and increased relative volatility in widely held names, including Apple Inc. (AAPL), Facebook Inc. (FB), and General Electric (GE).
“Clients upped their exposure to the markets as the Dow continued at strength,” said JJ Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade. “As we head into the fourth quarter, investors appeared to be setting themselves up for the possibility of continued strength despite tariffs and midterm elections looming over the markets.”
TD Ameritrade clients were net buyers of popular stocks in the September IMX period including:
Despite being net buyers, TD Ameritrade clients took profits in popular names, including:
U.S. equity markets were up again for the sixth consecutive month, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average reaching a record in September – the first since January – inching closer to the 27,000 mark. The S&P 500 was also up, while the Nasdaq Composite was down just slightly by 0.8 percent. September was marked by another milestone, as the Federal Reserve raised rates by a quarter-percent, which is the first time the Fed raised rates over 2 percent since the government’s intervention in 2008. While the markets remained high, October brings a new season of earnings and midterm election campaigning that will likely take a greater note.
About the IMX
The IMX value is calculated based on a complex proprietary formula. Each month, TD Ameritrade pulls a sample from its client base of more than 11 million funded accounts, which includes all accounts that completed a trade in the past month. The holdings and positions of this statistically significant sample are evaluated to calculate individual scores, and the median of those scores represents the monthly IMX.
