- Quality factors unanimously did well – Earnings Risk, Management, Earnings Quality,
Profitability & Balance Sheet. - Growth & Momentum investors performed strongly.
- Revisions & Operating Leverage Performed Poorly: Analysts were progressively getting more
upbeat on the wrong stocks over reporting season. - Speculative and small caps did poorly. Speculative stocks typically have investors with a
shorter investment horizon. - Value investing performed very poorly.
