Question:
Consider a long-short mutual fund that follows a dollar-neutral value-growth strategy. The fund has a maximum (gross) leverage constraint of 1.75 (i.e., LGross=((MV Long + MV Short)/(Equity Capital NAV)) is greater than or equal to 1.75).
The fund seeks to have the following fixed weights: +50 % large-value stocks, +37.5 % to small-value stocks, -50 % to large-growth stocks and -37.5 % to small-growth stocks. Compute the annualized abnormal return for the value/growth strategy.
Small Growth | Small Value | Large Growth | Large Value | |
Annualized α | -2.51% | 3.42% | -1.01% | 1.45% |
The GROWTH LARGE is given above
The answer should be provided in decimal form with three decimals. For example, write 0.105 instead of 10.5 when the correct answer is 10.5 %.
