Quantitative Factors and Construction Methods 1. Factor Name: Valuation Deviation (EPD) Factor - **Construction Idea**: Combines the mean-reversion strategy commonly used in CTA with the valuation repair logic of fundamentals, leveraging the mean-reversion characteristics of the PE valuation metric[7][2] - **Construction Process**: - Utilize the mean-reversion property of the PE ratio to construct the EPD factor[7] - The factor captures valuation deviations based on historical PE levels[7] - **Evaluation**: Reflects the valuation deviation of stocks, providing a basis for mean-reversion strategies[7] 2. Factor Name: Slow Deviation (EPDS) Factor - **Construction Idea**: Removes the impact of changes in individual stock valuation logic by using the EPD factor to exclude stocks with altered valuation logic, represented by the stock's information ratio[7][2] - **Construction Process**: - Use the EPD factor as a base - Exclude stocks with high probabilities of valuation logic changes, as proxied by their information ratios[7] - **Evaluation**: Focuses on stocks with stable valuation logic, enhancing the robustness of the factor[7] 3.
