Prof. J.P. Mei
Active Asset Management

over-reaction or excessive risk
premium required by investors

expected return and risk require
a dynamic asset allocation model

Outperform the benchmark with
careful risk management

Sorting by One Variable
 PE
& DY: The HK experience
 The
BEHV Paper
– Sorting by Different Variables
– Form portfolios and track returns out of
sample
– Quarterly re-balancing
– High, Middle, and Low Portfolios and three
weighting schemes

The Smith Barney Model:
Put It Together
 What
 How
variables to use?
do we group them?
 What
weight do we assign to each
group?
 What
weight do we assign to each
variables within each group?
 Good
modeling is similar to cooking.
The Smith Barney Model
(50%, 5%, 20%, 5%, 20%)
 Valuation:
P/E, P/E(Forecasted), P/B and
Earning Yield Gap
 Growth:
Earnings and GDP Growth for Next Year
 Risk:
Current account/GDP, Real exchange rate
over-valuation, Beta
 Interest
rate: Real Rate Change
 Momentum:
 Question:
Earnings revision and Price Change
How do they translate rankings into
weightings?
Strength and Weakness of
The Smith Barney Model

Strong marketing appeal: Intuitive and easy to
understand.

Flexibility: variables and weights used can be
adjusted to changing market conditions.

Timely information: the use of market information

Multi-colinearity: Similar Information

Failure to adjust for political and other risk
factors.

Transaction cost could be higher than indexing.

A Cautious Note for the Value Approach
 P/B
does not work in every countries
 P/Cash
flow does not work everywhere
 P/E
Trailing & Prospective does not
work everywhere
 Buy
on dip, sell on rally may not work
(Thai example)

 Company
Analysis and Stock Selection
 Applying
Valuation Models to Emerging
Market Stocks (Mariscal & Lee Model)
– A link between debt and equity market
– A framework to estimate country-risk adjusted PE
 Price/Book
Value (P/BV) and Price/Cash
Flow (P/CF) Ratios
 Industry Analysis:
 Overall
High growth potential

The Momentum Trading Strategy
(Rowenhorst)






Sort all stocks by lagged returns into decile portfolios
Adjust for beta risk
Country neutral portfolio (sort by return in each
country)
Size neutral portfolio (sort by return in each size
decile)
Size/country neutral and risk adjustment
The Momentum Strategy (Chan, Hammed, and Tong)
-Most profits come from Emerging markets.
-Hardly any trading profits after transaction costs.
