Book What causes Momentum Returns  Evidence from different Asset Classes

Download or read book What causes Momentum Returns Evidence from different Asset Classes written by Fabian Hertel and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,0, University of Münster, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses possible asset-specific and cross-asset explanation approaches for momentum appearance. The two main threads in literature, stock momentum and momentum of other assets, are discussed separately and subsequently checked for overlaps. The paper also deals with the definition of momentum as an anomaly itself in context of rational and behavioral concepts. It uncovers selected contrary observations and outlines possible conformities. Capital market anomalies are a phenomenon triggering ongoing debates about the trading behavior of investors on financial markets. They are contradicting the core ideas of the efficient market hypothesis (EMH), which considers financial markets efficient and investors rational and fully informed. One of the EMH key hypotheses, especially supported by Fama and by Samuelson, is the principle of random walk. If this principle holds, the prices of assets on financial markets are only influenced by public and firm-specific news, develop apart from that completely random and are not predictable. However, empirical observations question the random walk principle. They tend to indicate specific patterns in asset price developments instead of complete randomness. Doubts on the EMH and the random walk principle thus cannot be neglected. A common answer to these observations is the existence of additional risk factors which are currently not covered by the applied pricing models. Current asset pricing models mainly rely on Markowitz (1952) and the modern portfolio theory as well as on the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) from Sharpe (1964), Lintner (1965), and Mossin (1966). These models are rather a benchmark for asset pricing than perfect constructions covering all and any existing risk factors which are relevant for an assets price formation.

Book Asset Pricing Restrictions on Predictability

Download or read book Asset Pricing Restrictions on Predictability written by Frans de Roon and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. stock portfolios sorted on size, momentum, transaction costs, M/B, I/A and ROA ratios, and industry classification show considerable levels and variation of return predictability, inconsistent with asset pricing models. This means that a predictable risk premium is not equal to compensation for systematic risk as implied by asset pricing theory (Kirby 1998). We show that introducing market frictions relaxes these asset pricing moments from a strict equality to a range. Empirically, it is not short sales constraints but transaction costs (below 35 basis points) that help to reconcile the observed predictability with the Fama-French-Carhart four-factor model and the Chen-Novy-Marx-Zhang three factor model, and partly with the Durable Consumption model. Across the sorts, predictability in industry returns can be reconciled with all models considered with only 25 basis points transaction costs, whereas for momentum and ROA portfolios up to 115 basis points are needed.

Book Market Momentum

Download or read book Market Momentum written by Stephen Satchell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one-of-a-kind reference guide covering the behavioral and statistical explanations for market momentum and the implementation of momentum trading strategies Market Momentum: Theory and Practice is a thorough, how-to reference guide for a full range of financial professionals and students. It examines the behavioral and statistical causes of market momentum while also exploring the practical side of implementing related strategies. The phenomenon of momentum in finance occurs when past high returns are followed by subsequent high returns, and past low returns are followed by subsequent low returns. Market Momentum provides a detailed introduction to the financial topic, while examining existing literature. Recent academic and practitioner research is included, offering a more up-to-date perspective. What type of book is Market Momentum and how does it serve a range of readers’ interests and needs? A holistic market momentum guide for industry professionals, asset managers, risk managers, firm managers, plus hedge fund and commodity trading advisors Advanced text to help graduate students in finance, economics, and mathematics further develop their funds management skills Useful resource for financial practitioners who want to implement momentum trading strategies Reference book providing behavioral and statistical explanations for market momentum Due to claims that the phenomenon of momentum goes against the Efficient Markets Hypothesis, behavioral economists have studied the topic in-depth. However, many books published on the subject are written to provide advice on how to make money. In contrast, Market Momentum offers a comprehensive approach to the topic, which makes it a valuable resource for both investment professionals and higher-level finance students. The contributors address momentum theory and practice, while also offering trading strategies that practitioners can study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of my dissertation is to investigate the relation between market frictions, such as liquidity, and expected returns. I focus on the stock momentum anomaly, which cannot be explained by the standard risk-based asset-pricing models to date.

Book Slow Moving Capital

Download or read book Slow Moving Capital written by Mark Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study three cases in which specialized arbitrageurs lost significant amounts of capital and, as a result, became liquidity demanders rather than providers. The effects on security markets were large and persistent: Prices dropped relative to fundamentals and the rebound took months. While multi-strategy hedge funds who were not capital constrained increased their positions, a large fraction of these funds actually acted as net sellers consistent with the view that information barriers within a firm (not just relative to outside investors) can lead to capital constraints for trading desks with mark-to-market losses. Our findings suggest that real world frictions impede arbitrage capital.

Book Are Momentum Profits Robust to Trading Costs

Download or read book Are Momentum Profits Robust to Trading Costs written by Robert A. Korajczyk and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper tests whether momentum-based strategies remain profitable after considering market frictions, in particular price concessions induced by trading. Alternative measures of price impact are estimated and applied to alternative momentum-based trading rules. The performance of traditional momentum strategies, in addition to strategies designed to reduce the cost of trades, is evaluated. We find that, after taking into account the price impact induced by trades, as much as 5 billion dollars (relative to December 1999 market capitalization) may be invested in some momentum-based strategies before the apparent profit opportunities vanish. Other, extensively studied, momentum strategies are not implementable on a large scale. The persistence of momentum returns exhibited in the data remains an important challenge to the asset-pricing literature.

Download or read book Asset Pricing written by John H. Cochrane and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-11 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the prestigious Paul A. Samuelson Award for scholarly writing on lifelong financial security, John Cochrane's Asset Pricing now appears in a revised edition that unifies and brings the science of asset pricing up to date for advanced students and professionals. Cochrane traces the pricing of all assets back to a single idea--price equals expected discounted payoff--that captures the macro-economic risks underlying each security's value. By using a single, stochastic discount factor rather than a separate set of tricks for each asset class, Cochrane builds a unified account of modern asset pricing. He presents applications to stocks, bonds, and options. Each model--consumption based, CAPM, multifactor, term structure, and option pricing--is derived as a different specification of the discounted factor. The discount factor framework also leads to a state-space geometry for mean-variance frontiers and asset pricing models. It puts payoffs in different states of nature on the axes rather than mean and variance of return, leading to a new and conveniently linear geometrical representation of asset pricing ideas. Cochrane approaches empirical work with the Generalized Method of Moments, which studies sample average prices and discounted payoffs to determine whether price does equal expected discounted payoff. He translates between the discount factor, GMM, and state-space language and the beta, mean-variance, and regression language common in empirical work and earlier theory. The book also includes a review of recent empirical work on return predictability, value and other puzzles in the cross section, and equity premium puzzles and their resolution. Written to be a summary for academics and professionals as well as a textbook, this book condenses and advances recent scholarship in financial economics.

Book Market Frictions and Consumption Based Asset Pricing

Download or read book Market Frictions and Consumption Based Asset Pricing written by Hua He and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fundamental equilibrium condition underlying most utility-based asset pricing models is the equilibration of intertemporal marginal rates of substitution (IMRS). Previous empirical research, however, has found that the co-movements of consumption and asset return data fail to satisfy the restrictions imposed by this equilibrium condition. In this paper, we examine whether market frictions can explain previous findings. Our results suggest that a combination of short-sale borrowing, solvency, and trading cost frictions can drive a large enough wedge between IMRS so that the apparent violations MAY (authors emphasis) not be inconsistent with market equilibrium.

Book Popularity  A Bridge between Classical and Behavioral Finance

Download or read book Popularity A Bridge between Classical and Behavioral Finance written by Roger G. Ibbotson and published by CFA Institute Research Foundation. This book was released on 2018 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical and behavioral finance are often seen as being at odds, but the idea of “popularity” has been introduced as a way of reconciling the two approaches. Investors like or dislike various characteristics of securities for rational reasons (as in classical finance) or irrational reasons (as in behavioral finance), which makes the assets popular or unpopular. In the capital markets, popular (unpopular) securities trade at prices that are higher (lower) than they would be otherwise; hence, the shares may provide lower (higher) expected returns.This book builds on this idea and expands it in two major ways. First, it introduces a rigorous asset pricing model, the popularity asset pricing model (PAPM), which adds investor preferences for security characteristics other than the risk and expected return that are part of the capital asset pricing model. A major conclusion of the PAPM is that the expected return of any security is a linear function of not only its systematic risk (beta) but also of all security characteristics that investors care about. The other major contribution of the book is new empirical work that, while confirming the well-known premiums (such as size, value, and liquidity) in a popularity context, supports the popularity hypothesis on the basis of portfolios of stocks based on such characteristics as brand value, sustainable competitive advantage, and reputation. Popularity unifies the factors that affect price in classical finance with those that drive price in behavioral finance, thus creating a unifying theory or bridge between classical and behavioral finance.
