Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The individual investor's comprehensive guide to momentum investing Quantitative Momentum brings momentum investing out of Wall Street and into the hands of individual investors. In his last book, Quantitative Value, author Wes Gray brought systematic value strategy from the hedge funds to the masses; in this book, he does the same for momentum investing, the system that has been shown to beat the market and regularly enriches the coffers of Wall Street's most sophisticated investors. First, you'll learn what momentum investing is not: it's not 'growth' investing, nor is it an esoteric academic concept. You may have seen it used for asset allocation, but this book details the ways in which momentum stands on its own as a stock selection strategy, and gives you the expert insight you need to make it work for you. You'll dig into its behavioral psychology roots, and discover the key tactics that are bringing both institutional and individual investors flocking into the momentum fold. Systematic investment strategies always seem to look good on paper, but many fall down in practice. Momentum investing is one of the few systematic strategies with legs, withstanding the test of time and the rigor of academic investigation. This book provides invaluable guidance on constructing your own momentum strategy from the ground up. Learn what momentum is and is not Discover how momentum can beat the market Take momentum beyond asset allocation into stock selection Access the tools that ease DIY implementation The large Wall Street hedge funds tend to portray themselves as the sophisticated elite, but momentum investing allows you to 'borrow' one of their top strategies to enrich your own portfolio. Quantitative Momentum is the individual investor's guide to boosting market success with a robust momentum strategy.

Book excerpt: Stocks in a momentum portfolio, which contribute to momentum profits, do not experience reversal in the long run. Conversely, stocks that do not contribute to momentum profits exhibit subsequent reversals. Merging these separate securities into a single portfolio causes momentum and reversal patterns to appear linked. Stocks with momentum can be separated from those that exhibit reversal using stock characteristics. A portfolio that isolates momentum stocks displays large and persistent risk adjusted returns, which do not vary with behavioral proxies. Our results provide some direction for potential explanations of momentum patterns in returns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We identify two types of momenta in stock returns - one due to total returns and one due to firm-specific residual returns. Despite similar performances over the first year, these momentum portfolios perform dramatically differently beyond year one. Total-return momentum reverses strongly; residual momentum continues for years. This complexity in return momentum challenges the current theories of momentum. We propose that both momenta are consequences of agency issues in the money management industry and provide empirical support for this economic rationale of momentum in returns. Incentives induce institutions to chase total returns and to underreact to firm-specific news.

Book excerpt: This paper studies the joint dynamics of momentum and reversal strategies in the U.S. stock market. Momentum investors face uncertainty about whether past patterns of price movements will continue (momentum) or reverse, thereby increasing volatilities of momentum returns and occasionally leading to momentum crashes. We find that the forces that drive reversal over momentum tend to be strong if losers' past return is extremely low in the time series or if losers are small and illiquid in the cross section. Consequently, we propose new risk-managed momentum strategies that take into account the behavioral divergence between momentum and reversal. Empirical tests for the U.S. stock markets in the sample period of 1947 to 2015 document that momentum strategies in which investors implement stop-trading rules if losers' past returns are extremely low as well as buy-small-loser rules substantially outperform traditional momentum strategies. Importantly, we find that the outperformance is mainly attributable to the increase in abnormal returns (or alpha) from various factor models.

Book excerpt: This book explains and demonstrates the concept of momentum in chart analysis, which is of great interest to technical analysts. It includes complete explanations of overbought and oversold, where momentum fits in the broader science of technical analysis, and the importance of moving average crossover. Five major momentum oscillators are explained in depth: relative strength index, MACD, rate of change, stochastics, and Bollinger Bands. Finally, the book provides trading guidance based on momentum, involving coordination of oscillators with other indicators, reversal, and continuation signals. Momentum powerfully identifies the strength and speed of price movement. Through the use of index calculations, momentum is effective when used as a confirming indicator for other signals found in price, volume, or moving averages. Often overlooked by traders focused solely on price reversals or continuation signals, momentum provides a context to price behavior and to the price trend, and can vastly improves the timing of both entry and exit of trades.

Book excerpt: We develop a continuous-time asset price model to capture short-run momentum and long-run reversal. By studying a dynamic asset allocation problem, we derive the optimal investment strategy in closed form and show that the combined momentum and reversal strategies are optimal. We then estimate the model to the S&P 500 and demonstrate that, by taking the timing opportunity with respect to trend in return and market volatility, the optimal strategies outperform not only pure momentum and pure mean reversion strategies, but also the market index and time series momentum strategy. Furthermore we show that the optimality also holds for the out-of-sample tests and with short-sale constraints and the outperformance is immune to market states, investor sentiment and market volatility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking into account expected return characteristics like firm size and book-to-market in the selection of winners and losers helps to ex ante separate stocks with momentum from those that exhibit reversal in international equity markets. A strategy that buys small value winners and sells large growth losers generates significantly larger momentum profits than a standard momentum strategy, is robust to common return controls, and does not suffer from return reversals for holding periods up to three years. The superior performance of the strategy is attributable to a rather systematic exploitation of cross-sectional mispricing among momentum stocks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose that the time delay inherent in firm investment is what creates the time delay in stock returns observed in the momentum and reversal regularities. We provide intuition for our hypothesis and show empirically that indeed the momentum and reversal effects occur not in isolation, but are concurrent with systematic patterns in firm investment. For example, winners only continue to win when there is also subsequent investment, and losers only continue to lose when there is also subsequent disinvestment. Although our paper is about understanding the nature of the price pattern delay rather than examining a trading strategy, our tests suggest ways to enhance trading returns. Our results provide novel evidence on a potential source of delay in momentum and reversals regularities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a joint theory of time-series momentum and reversal based on a rational-expectations model. We show that a necessary condition for momentum to arise in this framework is that information flows at an increasing rate. We focus on word-of-mouth communication as a mechanism that enforces this condition and generates short-term momentum and long-term reversal. Investors with heterogeneous trading strategies -- contrarian and momentum traders -- coexist in the marketplace. Although a significant proportion of investors are momentum traders, momentum is not completely eliminated. Word-of-mouth communication spreads rumors and generates price run-ups and reversals. Our theoretical predictions are in line with empirical findings.

Book excerpt: This paper studies the trades immediately after the market open and immediately before the market close. The trades in the morning positively predict future returns and cause price continuation. The trades in the afternoon negatively predict future returns and cause price reversals. The momentum trading strategies based on morning returns and the reversal trading strategies based on afternoon returns generate significant abnormal returns, which cannot be explained by standard risk factors including momentum and reversal factors. The results provide strong evidence that trades in the morning are mostly information driven and trades in the afternoon are mostly liquidity driven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates whether short-term momentum and long-term reversal may emerge from the wealth reallocation process taking place in speculative markets. We assume that there are two classes of investors who trade long-lived assets by holding constantly rebalanced portfolios based on their beliefs. Provided beliefs, and thus portfolios, are sufficiently diversified, all investors survive in the long-run and, due to waves of mispricing, the resulting equilibrium returns exhibit long-term reversal. If, moreover, asset dividends are positively correlated, investors' profitable trades become positively correlated too, thus generating short-term momentum in equilibrium returns. We use the model to replicate the performance of the Winners and Losers portfolios highlighted by the empirical literature and to provide insights on how to improve upon them. Finally, we show that dividend positive autocorrelation is positively related to momentum and negatively related to reversal while diversity of beliefs is positively related to both momentum and reversal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investment pioneer Len Zacks presents the latest academic research on how to beat the market using equity anomalies The Handbook of Equity Market Anomalies organizes and summarizes research carried out by hundreds of finance and accounting professors over the last twenty years to identify and measure equity market inefficiencies and provides self-directed individual investors with a framework for incorporating the results of this research into their own investment processes. Edited by Len Zacks, CEO of Zacks Investment Research, and written by leading professors who have performed groundbreaking research on specific anomalies, this book succinctly summarizes the most important anomalies that savvy investors have used for decades to beat the market. Some of the anomalies addressed include the accrual anomaly, net stock anomalies, fundamental anomalies, estimate revisions, changes in and levels of broker recommendations, earnings-per-share surprises, insider trading, price momentum and technical analysis, value and size anomalies, and several seasonal anomalies. This reliable resource also provides insights on how to best use the various anomalies in both market neutral and in long investor portfolios. A treasure trove of investment research and wisdom, the book will save you literally thousands of hours by distilling the essence of twenty years of academic research into eleven clear chapters and providing the framework and conviction to develop market-beating strategies. Strips the academic jargon from the research and highlights the actual returns generated by the anomalies, and documented in the academic literature Provides a theoretical framework within which to understand the concepts of risk adjusted returns and market inefficiencies Anomalies are selected by Len Zacks, a pioneer in the field of investing As the founder of Zacks Investment Research, Len Zacks pioneered the concept of the earnings-per-share surprise in 1982 and developed the Zacks Rank, one of the first anomaly-based stock selection tools. Today, his firm manages U.S. equities for individual and institutional investors and provides investment software and investment data to all types of investors. Now, with his new book, he shows you what it takes to build a quant process to outperform an index based on academically documented market inefficiencies and anomalies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We link momentum and long-run return reversal to the cyclic behavior of firm fundamentals, which are represented by a fundamental index that summarizes succinctly and efficiently a broad range of business activities at firm level. In responding to repeated unanticipated positive (negative) shocks in fundamentals, investors continue to raise (lower) prices for winner (loser) firms, yielding momentum. However, due to the cyclicality of firm fundamentals, the unanticipated positive (negative) shocks decrease in magnitude overtime and eventually reverse, generating the reversal pattern. In addition, we find that firm fundamentals can explain stronger momentum in microcap stocks, and a long/short decile portfolio based on the firm fundament index outperforms the popular momentum portfolio substantially by doubling the Sharpe ratio and does not suffer crashes.
