Momentum Strategies:
Cross section Momentum
Time series Momentum
Cross-section: Cut-off @ #3
Good day: All winners (long) have positive performance but so have two losers (short) Bad day: All losers (short) have negative performance but so has one winner (long)
Time-series: Cut-off @ 1.5%
Good day: Six winners (long) selected but no losers (short), portfolio of six
Bad day: Three losers (short) selected but no winners (long), portfolio of three
Take-away:
In heavily tilted markets, time-series momentum strategies are biased with regard to the overall market trend.
Depending on the cut-off, their selection may vary largely in size while for cross- section strategies the portfolio size is always constant.
