On viewing Exhibit 1, Shaw makes the following comments about the MFC Value Fund:
- The small-cap tilt helped.
- Value funds were out of favor, as shown by the Value factor results.
- Of course, the MFC Value Fund must have a lower alpha because its performance was 0.03 percentage point worse than its benchmark.
Q. Which of Shaw’s comments about the MFC Value Fund in Exhibit 1 is most accurate? The comment concerning:
- alpha.
- small-cap tilt.
- value being out of favor.
Solution
B is correct. Shaw’s comment about a small-cap tilt is correct. Additional exposure to smaller firms resulted in a positive performance of 0.02% for the Size factor.
请问这道题是怎么看出来small cap的?我当时纠结了半天,只觉得在size上确实有超额收益,但是没法确定就是small cap啊。是官网的equity第二部分的13题
