Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1. Model Name: PB-ROE-50 - **Model Construction Idea**: The PB-ROE-50 model selects stocks based on a combination of Price-to-Book (PB) ratio and Return on Equity (ROE), aiming to capture value and profitability factors[23] - **Model Construction Process**: - Stocks are ranked based on their PB and ROE metrics - A portfolio is constructed by selecting the top 50 stocks with the best combined PB and ROE scores - The portfolio is rebalanced periodically to maintain the factor exposure[23] - **Model Evaluation**: The model demonstrates the ability to generate excess returns in certain market conditions, particularly in capturing value and profitability factors[23] 2. Model Name: Block Trade Portfolio - **Model Construction Idea**: This model leverages the information embedded in block trades, focusing on stocks with high block trade transaction amounts and low volatility in transaction amounts[29] - **Model Construction Process**: - Identify stocks with high "block trade transaction amount ratio" and low "6-day transaction amount volatility" - Construct a portfolio based on these criteria and rebalance monthly[29] - **Model Evaluation**: The model effectively captures the excess return potential of block trade-related stocks, particularly those with high transaction amounts and low volatility[29] 3. Model Name: Private Placement Portfolio - **Model Construction Idea**: This model focuses on stocks involved in private placements, aiming to capture the event-driven effects of private placements on stock performance[35] - **Model Construction Process**: - Use the shareholder meeting announcement date as the event trigger - Incorporate market capitalization, rebalancing frequency, and position control into the portfolio construction process - Construct a portfolio based on these parameters[35] - **Model Evaluation**: The model captures the investment opportunities arising from private placement events, though its effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions[35] --- Model Backtesting Results 1. PB-ROE-50 Model - **Excess Return (This Week)**: - CSI 500: -0.56% - CSI 800: -0.38% - All Market: 0.92%[24] - **Year-to-Date Excess Return**: - CSI 500: 2.99% - CSI 800: 6.41% - All Market: 9.28%[24] - **Absolute Return (This Week)**: - CSI 500: 1.39% - CSI 800: 0.73% - All Market: 2.47%[24] - **Year-to-Date Absolute Return**: - CSI 500: 8.41% - CSI 800: 9.44% - All Market: 16.07%[24] 2. Block Trade Portfolio - **Excess Return (This Week)**: 1.22% - **Year-to-Date Excess Return**: 25.89% - **Absolute Return (This Week)**: 2.78% - **Year-to-Date Absolute Return**: 33.71%[30] 3. Private Placement Portfolio - **Excess Return (This Week)**: 0.05% - **Year-to-Date Excess Return**: 8.72% - **Absolute Return (This Week)**: 1.59% - **Year-to-Date Absolute Return**: 15.48%[36] --- Quantitative Factors and Construction Methods 1. Factor Name: Beta Factor - **Factor Construction Idea**: Measures the sensitivity of a stock's returns to market returns, capturing systematic risk[18] - **Factor Construction Process**: - Calculate the covariance between the stock's returns and market returns - Divide by the variance of market returns to derive the beta coefficient - $ \beta = \frac{\text{Cov}(R_i, R_m)}{\text{Var}(R_m)} $ - Where $R_i$ is the stock return, and $R_m$ is the market return[18] - **Factor Evaluation**: The factor captures systematic risk effectively and is widely used in portfolio construction and risk management[18] 2. Factor Name: Momentum Factor - **Factor Construction Idea**: Measures the tendency of stocks with high past returns to continue performing well in the future[18] - **Factor Construction Process**: - Calculate the cumulative return of a stock over a specific look-back period (e.g., 6 months or 12 months) - Rank stocks based on their cumulative returns and construct a portfolio of top-ranked stocks[18] - **Factor Evaluation**: The factor is effective in capturing trends in stock performance but may underperform in reversal markets[18] 3. Factor Name: Valuation Factor (e.g., PB, PE, PS) - **Factor Construction Idea**: Measures the relative valuation of stocks based on financial metrics like Price-to-Book (PB), Price-to-Earnings (PE), and Price-to-Sales (PS)[18] - **Factor Construction Process**: - Calculate the PB, PE, or PS ratio for each stock - Rank stocks based on these ratios and construct a portfolio of low-ratio stocks (value stocks)[18] - **Factor Evaluation**: Valuation factors are effective in identifying undervalued stocks but may underperform during growth-driven market phases[18] --- Factor Backtesting Results 1. Beta Factor - **Weekly Return**: 0.48%[18] 2. Momentum Factor - **Weekly Return**: -0.44%[18] 3. Valuation Factor - **Weekly Return**: - PB: 2.57% (CSI 500)[14] - PE: 0.37% (CSI 300)[13] - PS: 1.26% (CSI 300)[13]
