GMOM Cambria Global Momentum ETF : Bullish and Bearish Analyst Opinions

Faber states that Trend Following is having a "face ripper" year in 2026 after a difficult prior period. His trend fund is heavily allocated to ex-US stocks, value companies, and precious metals. Most investors lack exposure to "Real Assets" (Gold/Commodities) and "Deep Value." Trend following strategies automatically rotate into these winning sectors without the emotional bias of the investor, capturing the "Right Tail" of the distribution (e.g., the move in Gold to $5k). Long Trend/Momentum strategies as a vehicle to access the performing asset classes (Commodities/Foreign) that traditional 60/40 portfolios miss. A sharp, choppy market reversal (whipsaw) where trends fail to sustain, causing the strategy to get stopped out repeatedly.
