Factor Screener Course

Momentum Factor Investing

You already buy stocks. You do not yet have a rule. This course gives you a complete, evidence-based momentum system built for a small Indian account — twenty stocks, equal weighted, rebalanced monthly — and the research to understand why every part of it is what it is.

What you walk away with

A written rule, not a watchlist

You finish with a specification you could hand to somebody else, and they would run your portfolio identically.

Eight momentum portfolios, fully specified

12-1, 6-1, the overlap, frog-in-the-pan, 52-week high, the Nifty methodology, risk-adjusted, residual and dual momentum.

The retail edge, used properly

Concentration, small-cap access and monthly rebalancing — the three things every mutual fund is structurally forbidden from doing.

Every claim cited

Jegadeesh and Titman, Fama and French, Asness, Daniel and Moskowitz, Da and Warachka, George and Hwang, Bessembinder and more.

What this course will argue with you about

Stock picking works if you research hard enough.

Bessembinder (2018): about 4% of listed firms created all the net wealth of the US market. A concentrated hand-picked portfolio most likely contains none of them.

Value investing is the safe, intelligent choice.

Value is a real premium and a brutal retail implementation. Three screeners give three different value portfolios and one identical momentum portfolio.

Buy low, sell high.

Far more money has been made buying high and selling higher. That is what the last thirty years of factor research actually says.

High turnover is speculation.

Turnover is the cost of harvesting a signal that decays in months. We quantify that cost in rupees, including Indian short-term capital gains tax.

Course access is separate from a Factor Screener Pro membership. Buying the course does not include Pro, and a Pro membership does not include the course.

What this course is not

It is education, not investment advice. No stock recommendations are given at any point, and none of the strategies described are guaranteed to work in the future. Momentum investing carries higher volatility and deeper drawdowns than a broad index fund, generates short-term capital gains tax, and has multi-year periods of underperformance. Chapters 13 and 15 are devoted entirely to those risks. You are responsible for your own investment decisions.
