Data Time Period: 4/1/2004 to 3/31/2012Data set: 1-year daily returnAsset Allocation Period: QuarterlyBenchmark: S&P 500
Methodology: Based on daily return data of 1-year period, the model calculates the optimized asset allocation which maximizes the utility for the following quarter. Based on the optimized allocation, we compare the portfolio performance to benchmark index.
Example: Using 1-year daily return data of 5 ETFs from 4/1/2004 to 3/31/2005, the model calculates the optimized asset allocation of 10% IVV, 10% IYR , 30% EEM, 10% AGG and 40% GSG. Using this asset allocation, the portfolio had 0.82% of return for the 2nd quarter of 2005, while the S&P 500 had 0.31% of return for the same time period.

Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA)
Alex Revy, Strategy Lead

Strategy Overview
21
• Multi-Asset strategy that diversifies both among asset classes and within asset classes by investing in index ETFs.
• Quantitative asset allocation model uses a risk-weighted statistical framework to predict expected excess returns, measure correlations, and determine optimal portfolio weights.
• Outperformance in comparison to a static benchmark generated by over- or under- weighting asset classes comprising the equal-weighted benchmark.
![Page 22: Agenda Welcome Market Overview Performance & Risk Management Strategy Presentations F-Score TAA EAR Fundamental Index Closing Remarks 2](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649db95503460f94aaa239/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Back-testing Methodology
22
Data Time Period: 5/10/2007 to 9/20/2013.Data set: Daily ETF Returns, 30-Day Implied Volatilities, and Historical Volatilities.Data Permutations: 108 different permutations of 5 portfolio parameters. Ran for 2 different models – one using VWO and one using VEU. 1,278 results per back-test.
Methodology: Based on daily return, volatility, and correlation data of various time periods, the model calculates the optimized asset allocation that maximizes the utility for the following quarter. Based on the optimized allocation, we compare the portfolio performance to benchmark index.

Back-testing Results
Ideal Parameters:
•Quarterly look-back to generate expected returns and correlations•Implied Volatility•5% Minimum Constraint•50% Maximum Constraint•2 Lambda
•Found to have the highest return and second highest Sharpe ratio of all im-plied volatility portfolios generated.
•Consistent with our tests of parameter strength in predicting future returns.
•Confirmed 2013 ASAM TAA team’s results.

TAA Key Metrics
• 4/30/14 TTM TAA Performance was 5.25%
• 108 basis points of outperformance versus benchmark
• 10.7% Standard Deviation
Key Points
• 3 out of 4 model allocations outperformed the benchmark during their 3 month allocation.
• December switch from VWO to VEU helped performance
• Both over- and under-weights drove performance
![Page 25: Agenda Welcome Market Overview Performance & Risk Management Strategy Presentations F-Score TAA EAR Fundamental Index Closing Remarks 2](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649db95503460f94aaa239/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Next Steps
25
• Improve Data in Model-Replace ETF price returns with total returns in order to add dividends to the data set-Add a long-term average return term to estimates of expected returns
• Improve Back-Testing Methodology-Current back-test very dependent on date ranges that are set. Must
increase frequency of back-test measurements from quarterly to weekly or at least monthly.
•Additional Asset Classes-Add additional asset classes – eg international fixed income-Divide existing asset classes into components – eg foreign equities
by region or domestic equities by capitalization and price-to-book.
•Consider Other Models and Optimization Methods-Black-Litterman mehodology and Bloomberg Asset Allocation

Earnings Announcement Return (EAR)

STRATEGY OVERVIEW
18
Academic Papers:1. Earnings Announcements are Full of Surprises by Michael Brandt, Runeet Kishore, Pedro
Santa-Clara, and Mohan Venkatachalam; June 20072. Earnings Announcements and Systemic Risk by Pavel Savor and Mungo Wilson; December
2013EAR #1:• The movement of a stock’s price around the earnings announcement window is
predictive of future price movements• If investors initially underreact to new information presented in corporate earnings
reports, it is possible to quickly purchase (sell) these stocks and generate alpha
EAR #2:• Firms that announce earnings ear-
lier in the quarter are a source of information for non-announcers
• A signal extraction problem re-sults in a high risk premium award for the announcing firms
![Page 28: Agenda Welcome Market Overview Performance & Risk Management Strategy Presentations F-Score TAA EAR Fundamental Index Closing Remarks 2](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649db95503460f94aaa239/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Back-Testing Results

EAR #1Data Time Period: Q2 2002 to Q2 2012Data set: 3 day EAR return and 90 day holding returnAsset Allocation Period: QuarterlyBenchmark: N/A Did not find a monotonic relationshipMethodology: For simplicity, we selected two dates to trade per quarter to measure the 3 Day return around earnings announcements. This we sorted into quintiles and then further tracked these same stocks an additional 90 days out to see if there was a monotonic relationship between the two returns.
EAR #2Data Time Period: Nov 1998 to Aug 2012Data set: The paper suggests a 1 week holding period but we modified for a 12 week holding period. We excluded small and mid cap stocks which may be costlier to trade as well as mega cap stocks which we did not find to benefit from the risk premia. Finally, we limited cap size range to $5-20 billion. Asset Allocation Period: QuarterlyBenchmark: S&P 500Methodology: For simplicity, we selected a particular date every quarter and bought all the stocks that fit our criteria. We held these stocks for 12 weeks, from which we were able to assess the 12 week holding period return, standard deviation, and Sharpe ratios.

Back Tested Performance Ear #1
Key Metrics
Key Points
• Top Quintile outperforms all the other Quintiles, however there is no monotonic relationship
• Quintile 5 is surprisingly the 2nd best performer—perhaps due to initial overreaction of bad news
• Only 22 of the 40 quarters measured have Quintile 1 outperforming the other quintiles, therefore we could not justify trading this strategy
Quintile Return Std. Dev. Sharpe

Back Tested Performance Ear #2
Key Metrics
• 12 week holding period• Market Cap $5B to $20B• 25 trades per quarter
(average)• 23.5% annualized return,
31.2% standard deviation, 0.66 Sharpe Ratio
Key Points
• Testing modified due to time and trading cost constraints• With modifications, hypothetical $100 investment Nov 1998 translates to $1,500
August 2012• Next class should continue further testing for realistic implementation.

• Initial Findings:– Re-investing each month resulted in high trading costs,
which ultimately made investing every other month the best implementation
– 4 of the 100 simulated portfolios had superior returns
