Quantitative Models and Construction Methods 1.

It uses historical data to form a logical, quantifiable, and effective strategy[38]. - **Model Construction Process**: - **Macro Level**: Utilizes an event-driven approach to study the relationship between styles and macroeconomic factors. Six dimensions are considered: economic growth, consumption, monetary policy, interest rates, exchange rates, and real estate. Five event patterns are defined, including historical highs/lows, marginal improvement trends, exceeding expectations, and new highs/lows. The model evaluates the relative returns, information ratios (IR), excess monthly win rates, and correlations of style indices within one month after macro events[38]. - **Market State**: Reflects investor sentiment and risk appetite. Proxy variables include monthly returns, turnover rates, volatility, ERP, BP, DRP, and excess returns of the CSI Dividend Index.
