<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The individual investor's comprehensive guide to momentum investing</b> <p><i>Quantitative Momentum</i> brings momentum investing out of Wall Street and into the hands of individual investors. In his last book, <i>Quantitative Value</i>, author Wes Gray brought systematic value strategy from the hedge funds to the masses; in this book, he does the same for momentum investing, the system that has been shown to beat the market and regularly enriches the coffers of Wall Street's most sophisticated investors. First, you'll learn what momentum investing is <i>not</i> it's not 'growth' investing, nor is it an esoteric academic concept. You may have seen it used for asset allocation, but this book details the ways in which momentum stands on its own as a stock selection strategy, and gives you the expert insight you need to make it work for you. You'll dig into its behavioral psychology roots, and discover the key tactics that are bringing both institutional and individual investors flocking into the momentum fold. <p>Systematic investment strategies always seem to look good on paper, but many fall down in practice. Momentum investing is one of the few systematic strategies with legs, withstanding the test of time and the rigor of academic investigation. This book provides invaluable guidance on constructing your own momentum strategy from the ground up. <ul> <li>Learn what momentum is and is <i>not</i></li> <li>Discover how momentum can beat the market</li> <li>Take momentum beyond asset allocation into stock selection</li> <li>Access the tools that ease DIY implementation</li> </ul> <p>The large Wall Street hedge funds tend to portray themselves as the sophisticated elite, but momentum investing allows you to 'borrow' one of their top strategies to enrich your own portfolio. <i>Quantitative Momentum</i> is the individual investor's guide to boosting market success with a robust momentum strategy.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><b>Praise for <i>Quantitative Momentum</i></b></p> <p>In our own research, we have found that the predictive price return momentum pattern persists backward in time for hundreds of years in equities and for extended out-of-sample settings for other classes of assets.
