GemUtil

A sophisticated, highly responsive web application implementing a systematic dual-momentum framework for ETF selection, based on the Global Equity Momentum (GEM) strategy.

GemUtil integrates a modern React frontend with a robust Express backend to dynamically analyze ETF performance using the Yahoo Finance API. It provides an intuitive platform for investors to track momentum across selected markets to discover the current best-performing ETF according to the GEM strategy logic.

Features

  • Systematic Selection: Calculates asset performance based on the specific rules of the Global Equity Momentum strategy.
  • Real-Time Data: Integrates seamlessly with the yahoo-finance2 API to fetch up-to-date historical market data.
  • Interactive Visualizations: High-quality, interactive charts built with recharts.
  • Sleek UI/UX: Designed using Tailwind CSS and Lucide React icons, featuring smooth micro-animations powered by motion.
  • Optimized Builds: Leverages Vite for extremely fast development servers and optimized production builds.
