HOW DO EARNINGS LINK TO ALPHA GENERATION?

the rate of change in earnings growth is CRITICAL to alpha generation

sar = size adjusted abnormal return favoured stocks assigned to the highest TP/P in the highest EPS forecast accuracy group deliver 18% higher alpha than the bottom quintile

CONCLUDING REMARKS

▪ Equity markets started to feel the pressure from liquidity shortages in sept 2019 ▪ Central banks responded to this risk and the economic impact of covid 19 with unprecedented liquidity ▪ Risk assets have been redefined by price: ▪ bond yields in developed markets are artificially supressed ▪ bond yields in emerging markets may be overpricing risk ▪ the us equity market is highly differentiated ▪ what price the future value of the dollar ? ▪ what is a risk free asset ? ▪ Opportunities exist in the interplay between growth, liquidity & yield.
