Time series momentum: Evidence from the European equity market

Abstract

This study empirically analyzes time series momentum (TSM) in the European equity market between 2000 & 2020. The study produces additional evidence on TSM where a significant and persistent market price anomaly enables investors to earn abnormal returns. To achieve this goal the present study implements a pooled autoregressive model to test the predictability power of European equity indices of future returns. The results indicate that strategies based on TSM are in line with the discussed literature and enable market agents to earn returns above the market (0.71% per month) by using a six-factor model.
