Intelligent Investing: Part 1

Harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can provide investors with a distinct advantage. In this post, we’re excited to introduce the variety of AI-Managed Portfolios (AMPs) that can help all Arta members level up their investment in public markets.

Catering to a wide array of investor profiles in current market conditions, Arta has crafted five AMPs across two categories:


  1. Harvest AMPs, short-to-medium term, low-risk strategy for those seeking a stable investment with the opportunity to earn income from interest payments and enjoy potential tax benefits. Consider Harvest AMPs when you’re looking for a better alternative to a high-yield savings account, or want to anchor a stock-heavy portfolio to help reduce its volatility.

  2. Grow AMPs, a longer-term stock-centric approach for those aiming for higher growth potential. Consider a Grow AMP when you want the effortless ease of an index fund combined with the scientific rigor and market savvy of a Quant hedge fund: These are investment vehicles that use highly sophisticated and data-driven quantitative (mathematical and statistical) models and technology to identify and execute investment opportunities.quant hedge fund. Grow AMPs execute sophisticated trading strategies on your behalf.

Footnotes

  1. Harvest Treasuries invests in ETFs that hold US treasuries. Income from US Treasuries is exempt from State and Local taxes. Depending on your state and local tax situation, this AMP's tax-equivalent yield could be higher than the Yield To Maturity of 5.16%. For example, a California tax resident, filing jointly and in the highest tax bracket, would need a savings account that gives an equivalent yield as high as 6.63% to match what they’d get after-tax from the Harvest Treasuries AMP. This example is for illustrative purposes only, and is not tax advice. Seek the advice of a tax professional before making any investment.

  2. As of time of publication in May 2023. The yield presented here is estimated based on the weighted average of the Yield to Maturity of the underlying assets. Yield to Maturity is a forward looking projection, and is subject to change based on market conditions such as interest rate changes. The realized yield may be higher or lower. The 30-day trailing Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) yield for the AMP as of May 2023 is 4.69%, estimated based on the weighted average of the most recent 30-day SEC yields for the underlying assets. Arta is waiving fees through 2023. Past performance doesn’t guarantee future results. All investments carry risk, including loss of principal.
