Each strategy is measured from the first date on which all its ETFs have 12 months of history, so the periods are not identical. To compare them over the same period use the comparison tool.

Educational and informational content. It is not investment advice or a personal recommendation. The results shown are historical simulations (backtests) using US-listed ETFs; past performance does not guarantee future results and you may lose some or all of the capital invested. Real returns will depend on your costs, taxes, currency and execution timing.
