The Dumb (Timing) Luck of Smart Beta

In this research note we explore how performance for smart beta portfolios has been impacted by rebalance timing luck over the last two decades.

Macro and Momentum Factor Rotation

We explore the application of macro-economic and momentum-based quantitative signals to factor rotation and find little evidence of robustness.

Ensemble Multi-Asset Momentum

We explore the a representative multi-asset momentum model that is similar to many bank-based indexes and implement an ensemble to improve consistency.

Value and the Credit Spread

We use a measure of credit curve steepness as a valuation signal for timing exposure between corporate bonds and U.S. Treasuries.

Tactical Credit

We find that short-term momentum signals generate statistically significant annualized excess returns for a tactical credit strategy.
