Behavior economists suggest that the momentum investment strategies arebetter than the traditionally well-diversified portfolio strategy. Io order to testify thisargument, this paper uses three kinds of momentum investment strategies,individual stock momentum strategy, industrial momentum strategy, and 52-weekhigh price momentum strategy to establish investment portfolios on Taiwan stockmarket.The result of this study is as follows: if we buy and hold portfolios accordingto the three kinds of investment strategies for six-month, the average returns of allthe three momentum investment strategies are all positive. In addition, the averagereturn of the 52-week high price investment strategy is significantly higher thanzero. This result implies that the 52-week high price momentum strategy is a bettermomentum investment strategy that Taiwan stock investors should adopt. In orderto consider the impact of Leman Brothers’ shock, this study extends research datafrom 1998 to 2009. Then, we find that the momentum investment strategies are notsignificantly better than traditionally well-diversified portfolio strategy. |
