A CLOSER LOOK AT OUR TACTICAL POSITIONING TARGETS
Each day, Meeder analyzes and ranks over 70 different factors from our short, intermediate, and long-term models. The dynamic statistical model incorporates factors covering macroeconomic, fundamental, trends and technical analysis to estimate the potential reward and marketplace risk of the equity markets. The Meeder Spectrum, Muirfield, Balanced, Moderate Allocation, and Conservative Allocation funds utilize this strategy for the Defensive Equity portion of their portfolios. The Defensive Equity Strategy guides the allocation of each fund’s equity sleeve and the actual proportion of equity investments in any fund will vary depending on the investment objectives of the fund.

QUICK TAKE
The S&P500 price to earnings ratio is at 27x, well above its 10-year average of 22x. Higher equity
valuations are a potential headwind for equity
returns in the future.
Several factors are indicating bearish
sentiment. The 10-day moving average of the
CBOE Put to Call ratio spiked to its highest level
since April 2025. This bearishness is viewed as
positive from a contrarian perspective.
The short-term model is positive overall
despite a slight weakening after 2 of the 10
trend and momentum signals turned negative.
While the VIX is hovering around its long-term
average. The MOVE Index is still well below its
long-term average. Risk remains relatively low
but has been moving higher as of late.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. All investments carry a certain amount of risk and the Funds cannot guarantee that they will achieve their investment objectives. Loss of money is a risk of investing in a mutual fund. The Funds are subject to stock market and liquidity risk. The Funds are also subject to foreign investment risk. These risks, as well as others, may occur during the time you hold shares of the funds.
Investors are advised to consider carefully the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Meeder Funds before investing. The Meeder Funds prospectus contains this and other information about the funds.
