Abstract

Factors across multiple asset classes demonstrate momentum, with an average factor generating a monthly return of 11 basis points after a year of non-positive returns and 37 basis points following a year of positive returns. Nevertheless, a strategy focused on trading the factor momentum in the multi-asset space appears to be primarily harvesting the well-documented premium of the time series momentum factor.
