The Hawk-Eye Certi­fi­cate: the smart stock strategy for tomor­row’s global trends

Since its launch in April 2023, the Hawk-Eye certi­fi­cate has impressed with its measurable outper­for­mance compared to the global stock index. Using a rule-based approach combi­ning senti­ment and chart analysis, Hawk-Eye identi­fies global market oppor­tu­ni­ties at an early stage. With its secured USD certi­fi­cate, the strategy offers an efficient, flexible, and trans­pa­rent alter­na­tive to tradi­tional ETFs.

A keen eye for global stock oppor­tu­ni­ties

The actively managed Hawk-Eye certi­fi­cate consists of 60 to 100 liquid inter­na­tional equities with the aim of outper­forming the global equity market over the long term with compa­rable risk. The invest­ment strategy is based on the belief that markets are driven by emotions and investor behavior. By combi­ning chart analysis, senti­ment indica­tors, and quanti­ta­tive models, recur­ring patterns and trends are identi­fied at an early stage. Stock selec­tion is discretio­nary within a rule-based frame­work. The certi­fi­cate follows the UCITS-compliant 5/10/40 rule and uses targeted country and sector devia­tions to actively seize oppor­tu­ni­ties.

While much of the focus on the stock markets revolves around AI and semicon­duc­tors, new oppor­tu­ni­ties are emerging away from the spotlight. The Tareno Hawk-Eye approach becomes parti­cu­larly intere­sting when indivi­dual stocks develop relative strength despite recei­ving little atten­tion, and positive news subse­quently leads to a dispro­por­tio­na­tely strong market reaction.
