Portfolio Analysis of Multi-Factor Stock Selection Model Based on Investor Sentiment

Abstract

Since 1990, China's securities market has been gradually improved. Domestic and foreign scholars have proposed many theoretically perfect investment models, but not many of them have been applied in practice because the market cannot satisfy the strict assumption conditions of the models. Foreign quantitative investment models are not necessarily effective in the Chinese market. Based on this, this paper takes the portfolio theory as a guide, uses the scoring method to construct a multi-factor stock selection model, and selects the relevant factors in combination with the characteristics of the Chinese market. Through empirical analyses, the validity of the multi-factor stock selection model with equal weight allocation in China's market is verified. In addition, this paper innovatively constructs an investor sentiment factor, combines the sentiment timing with the multi-factor stock selection model, optimises the timing on the basis of the multi-factor stock selection model, and proposes an investment strategy to obtain excess returns stably.
