Quantitative Factors and Construction Methods - **Factor Name**: bp **Construction Idea**: Measures valuation by comparing net assets to market capitalization **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ bp = \frac{\text{Net Assets}}{\text{Market Capitalization}} $ **Evaluation**: Provides a direct valuation metric for stocks[13] - **Factor Name**: bp three-year percentile **Construction Idea**: Evaluates the relative valuation of a stock over the past three years **Construction Process**: Represents the current bp value's percentile rank within the last three years[13] **Evaluation**: Useful for identifying stocks with consistent valuation trends[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly ep **Construction Idea**: Measures profitability relative to net assets **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Quarterly ep} = \frac{\text{Quarterly Net Profit}}{\text{Net Assets}} $ **Evaluation**: Indicates profitability efficiency[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly ep one-year percentile **Construction Idea**: Tracks the relative profitability of a stock over the past year **Construction Process**: Represents the current quarterly ep value's percentile rank within the last year[13] **Evaluation**: Highlights short-term profitability trends[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly sp **Construction Idea**: Measures revenue generation relative to net assets **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Quarterly sp} = \frac{\text{Quarterly Revenue}}{\text{Net Assets}} $ **Evaluation**: Reflects operational efficiency[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly sp one-year percentile **Construction Idea**: Tracks the relative revenue generation of a stock over the past year **Construction Process**: Represents the current quarterly sp value's percentile rank within the last year[13] **Evaluation**: Useful for identifying short-term revenue trends[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly ROA **Construction Idea**: Measures profitability relative to total assets **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Quarterly ROA} = \frac{\text{Quarterly Net Profit}}{\text{Total Assets}} $ **Evaluation**: Indicates asset utilization efficiency[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly ROE **Construction Idea**: Measures profitability relative to shareholders' equity **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Quarterly ROE} = \frac{\text{Quarterly Net Profit}}{\text{Net Assets}} $ **Evaluation**: Reflects return on equity for shareholders[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly net profit YoY growth **Construction Idea**: Tracks year-over-year growth in net profit **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Net Profit YoY Growth} = \frac{\text{Current Net Profit} - \text{Previous Year Net Profit}}{\text{Previous Year Net Profit}} $ **Evaluation**: Highlights growth trends in profitability[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly revenue YoY growth **Construction Idea**: Tracks year-over-year growth in revenue **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Revenue YoY Growth} = \frac{\text{Current Revenue} - \text{Previous Year Revenue}}{\text{Previous Year Revenue}} $ **Evaluation**: Reflects growth trends in operational performance[13] - **Factor Name**: Quarterly ROE YoY growth **Construction Idea**: Tracks year-over-year growth in ROE **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{ROE YoY Growth} = \frac{\text{Current ROE} - \text{Previous Year ROE}}{\text{Previous Year ROE}} $ **Evaluation**: Indicates improvement in equity returns[13] - **Factor Name**: Standardized unexpected earnings **Construction Idea**: Measures deviation of current earnings from historical growth trends **Construction Process**: $ \text{Standardized Unexpected Earnings} = \frac{\text{Current Earnings} - (\text{Last Year Earnings} + \text{8-Quarter Average Growth})}{\text{Standard Deviation of 8-Quarter Growth}} $ **Evaluation**: Useful for identifying earnings surprises[13] - **Factor Name**: Standardized unexpected revenue **Construction Idea**: Measures deviation of current revenue from historical growth trends **Construction Process**: $ \text{Standardized Unexpected Revenue} = \frac{\text{Current Revenue} - (\text{Last Year Revenue} + \text{8-Quarter Average Growth})}{\text{Standard Deviation of 8-Quarter Growth}} $ **Evaluation**: Highlights revenue surprises[13] - **Factor Name**: Dividend yield **Construction Idea**: Measures dividend payout relative to market capitalization **Construction Process**: Calculated as: $ \text{Dividend Yield} = \frac{\text{Annual Dividend}}{\text{Market Capitalization}} $ **Evaluation**: Indicates shareholder returns through dividends[13] - **Factor Name**: 1-month turnover rate volatility **Construction Idea**: Tracks the standard deviation of turnover rates over the past month **Construction Process**: $ \text{Turnover Rate Volatility} = \text{Standard Deviation of Daily Turnover Rates (Last 20 Days)} $ **Evaluation**: Reflects liquidity stability[13] Factor Backtesting Results -
