MuSu: A medium-term investment strategy by integrating Multifactor model with industrial Supply chain

Abstract

Most experts try their best to enhance investment performance of multifactor strategy by appending new useful factors or by optimizing existing factors. However, few people take the supply chain into consideration during multifactor strategy designing. Indeed, supply and demand relationships in the industry can reflect the running situation of the relevant companies, so the relationships would be efficient in stock choosing. In this work, we propose a midterm strategy of multifactor, named MUSU, by introducing the industrial supply chain into the multifactor model. We verify the model by taking the industry of new Energy Vehicle as Example. The results show that MUSU performs much better than the traditional models, no matter with market value choosing mechanism or not. It reveals that the introduction of supply chain in multifactor model considerably improves multifactor strategy’s profitability and stability.
