TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation Analyst Notes
On April 7, 2014, TD Ameritrade
Holding Corporation reported that its broker-dealer subsidiary TD
Ameritrade, Inc. (TD Ameritrade) has revealed the Investor Movement
Index (IMX) reading for March 2014.
The Company stated that March 2014
IMX reading of 5.87 indicated a sixth consecutive month rise, the
longest upward trend in nearly two years. According to the Company,
IMX is a proprietary, behaviour-based index created by TD
Ameritrade that aggregates Main Street investor positions and
activity, measuring what investors are doing and how they are
positioned in the markets. The Company informed that the IMX value
is calculated based on a complex proprietary formula, as it pulls a
sample from its client base of 6 million funded accounts, and
evaluates their holdings and positions to calculate individual
scores, and the median of the scores to report the monthly IMX.
"Our clients have been dialing up equity market exposure and
participating in the rally every step of the way," said JJ Kinahan,
Chief Strategist, TD Ameritrade. "This is the longest consecutive
upward trend we have seen in the IMX since March 2011." The full analyst notes on TD
