Strategy Q&A

Pre-generated questions and answers about this strategy.

  • momentum13FChat AI

    Did the momentum screen improve returns enough to justify drawdown, concentration, and turnover?

    The momentum result shows return 9.68%, alpha 14.59%, beta 0.86, Sharpe 0.43, Sortino 0.61, and max drawdown -80.50%. Versus baseline, annualized return changed by -13.12%, alpha changed by -6.03%, Sharpe changed by -0.22, Sortino changed by -0.31, drawdown worsened by 14.82%. Average recent turnover is about 140.75%, and concentration is top 5 100.00%, top 10 100.00%, top 20 100.00%, so any return improvement should be tested against trading cost and crowded-winner reversal risk.
