The profit to a standard short-term return reversal strategy can be decomposed analytically into four components related to (1) across-industry return momentum; (2) within-industry variation in expected returns; (3) underreaction to within-industry cash flow news; (4) and a residual. Only the...

We decompose the momentum profits based on total stock returns into three components: a long-term average alpha component that reverses, a stock beta component that accounts for the dynamic market exposure (and momentum crash risk), and a residual return component that drives the momentum effect...

To analyze the determinants of the observed variation in stock prices, Campbell and Shiller (1988) have suggested decomposing unexpected stock returns into unexpected changes in investors' beliefs about future cash flows (cash flow news) and discount rates (discount rate news). Based on a...
