And for good reason: they can fall out of favor fast! The potential for these massive price corrections and the psychological toil of owning them helps explain the return premium associated with the Momentum Factor. Tesla\u2019s recent stock volatility and the emotions it triggers not only makes it a worthy poster child for momentum stocks but also provides some insight into the differences across both momentum factors and momentum funds. And dare I add when looking at the price action of similar stocks on November 9th, it is a warning on what may yet still be on the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-november-9th-a-unique-day-for-momentum-investors\"><strong>November 9th<\/strong>: A Unique Day for Momentum Investors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The traditional academic \u201cmomentum\u201d moniker most simply applies to stocks that have performed the best over the past year. These stocks over various time periods and across markets, both in and out of sample, have exhibited excess risk-adjusted returns as well documented on this blog (<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/2015\/12\/01\/quantitative-momentum-investing-philosophy\/\">here is an example<\/a>) as well as many others&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/2020\/12\/23\/a-curious-combination-momentum-investing-tesla-and-november-9th\/#note-60136-1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a>.&nbsp; Equally well documented is the ability of momentum stocks to drop like a stone. In fact, on November 9<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;of this year, one of the sharpest price reversals for these stocks in the last couple of decades occurred. Yet the event passed largely unnoticed by the general public (outside of some by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wjruss84\/status\/1326171401989087234\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">#fintwit<\/a>&nbsp;community and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/markets-vaccine-euphoria-was-bad-news-for-momentum-funds-11605695400?mod=searchresults_pos6&amp;page=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">modest coverage<\/a>&nbsp;in the Wall Street Journal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/image-7-800x542.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; aspect-ratio: 800\/542;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>The results are hypothetical results and are NOT an indicator of future results and do NOT represent returns that any investor actually attained.

The -14.5% return of the Dow Jones U.S. Thematic Market Neutral Momentum Index was almost 15 standard deviations from the norm&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/2020\/12\/23\/a-curious-combination-momentum-investing-tesla-and-november-9th\/#note-60136-2\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/a>. Bloomberg\u2019s US Pure Momentum Portfolio factor was down a more modest 4% or 4 standard deviations from the norm. Since 1999, the most significant daily drop in price was a meager 7.5% for the Dow\u2019s on March 23rd, 2000, and a 1.7% drop for Bloomberg\u2019s factor on 1\/09\/09. Hmmm, coming out of the Internet Bubble and Great Financial Crisis the Momentum Factor experienced much more than just a daily reversal. This is a well-documented period of gut-wrenching drawdowns for the factor&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/2020\/12\/23\/a-curious-combination-momentum-investing-tesla-and-november-9th\/#note-60136-3\"><sup>3<\/sup><\/a>. French\u2019s data goes back much further than the 01\/01\/2000 start of the other two factor indices and records 5 days exceeding a 10% drop, mostly in the 30s during the Great Depression&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/2020\/12\/23\/a-curious-combination-momentum-investing-tesla-and-november-9th\/#note-60136-4\"><sup>4<\/sup><\/a>. Again, the largest drawn down in the Momentum Factor\u2019s history also occurred over this time period and the proximity of the large daily reversals should give us pause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/image-9-800x571.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; aspect-ratio: 800\/571;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>The results are hypothetical results and are NOT an indicator of future results and do NOT represent returns that any investor actually attained. Indexes are unmanaged, do not reflect management or trading fees, and one cannot invest directly in an index.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-differences-across-momentum-factors-and-funds\"><strong>Differences Across Momentum Factors and Funds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And what about the large performance differences across the factors for this date? What first appears to be minor differences in both how and when to calculate the factor has major repercussions for returns. The Momentum Factor attempts to neutralize swings in the market by going long these momentum stocks and short out-of-favor stocks that have done poorly. But different quants calculate that factor differently. Ken French of Dartmouth sorts daily to calculate the Fama-French Daily Momentum Factor and combines both big company and small company portfolios to go long and short momentum. Bloomberg uses an implicit factor model using multivariate cross-sectional regression analysis designed to zero out exposure to other factors, including the market. Dow Jones sorts stocks based on 12 months returns within various sectors in attempt to minimize industry bets. French uses market value weights. To avoid idiosyncratic risk, Bloomberg uses the square root of market value when determining weights. Dow Jones uses equal weighting and rebalances quarterly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even momentum definitions can differ. Although momentum enjoys considerable consensus on what it means, namely 6 to 12 months of relative strong performance with an adjustment for well documented short term (up to a month) reversals, this also can lead to differences in returns. French-Fama\u2019s factor uses returns starting 251 days back (roughly 12 months) and stopping 21 days back (roughly 1 month) to avoid short-term reversals. Bloomberg goes back 54 weeks and stops 2 weeks back. Dow Jones just goes back 52 weeks with no adjustment for short-term reversals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Definitions aside, the differences in returns of the long-short measurements of the Momentum Factor also translates into differences in returns to long-only Exchange Traded Funds (i.e., ETFs) and mutual funds trying to capture the momentum strategy\u2019s excess returns. As shown in the table below, on November 9<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;most, but not all, of the listed funds dropped with the factor indexes while the U.S. Market, as measured by Vanguard\u2019s Total Stock Market ETF &lt;VTI&gt; was up 1.25%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Visit Alpha Architect Blog to read the rest of the article:<br><a
