OriginaveMSCI World Momentum Index
What the MSCI World Momentum Index is, where it lives officially, and how its ride has looked over the years.
What does the MSCI World Momentum Index track?
About 350 developed-world companies whose share prices have been rising the strongest over the past 6 and 12 months — MSCI's global take on the momentum factor.
Momentum chases what is already working and rebalances twice a year to stay on the train. Spectacular in long trends, painful when the market suddenly turns.
MSCI
Every figure here is in euros — what you'd actually pocket buying on Xetra. Fund fact sheets usually headline returns in US dollars, which can look very different: in 2025 a world tracker rose about 23% in dollars but only about 9% in euros, because the euro gained roughly 13% against the dollar. Here's the full story, year by year.
