As we talked about in the last <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kuvera.in\/how-to-manage-expectations-for-higher-returns\/\">blogpost<\/a>, research shows investors <i>do<\/i> chase returns and it \u00a0lowers the amount of money they get from investments. While research on how most mutual fund managers cannot beat their index fund benchmark is well known, not much attention has been given to the idea that return chasing behavior delivers <i>negative alpha (performance) and exacerbates the problem<\/i>.

Some key findings from their paper:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>1\/ Poor investor timing ability is <i>significantly<\/i> associated with the best performing funds. <\/strong>The best fund managers are not able to deliver the best return because of investor timing. The authors find that the top 30% of managers do have positive alpha of\u00a0+ <i>0.27% <\/i>monthly. But investors poor timing results in <i>-0.25%<\/i> gap between the dollar return and the time weighted returns.<i> In other words by entering and exiting at the wrong time the investors destroyed almost the entire value the managers had created. <\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>2\/Timing Under-performance is higher for larger and more costly funds. <\/strong>The top 20% of the funds by assets under management (AUM) have -2.28% difference in the dollar returns vs. the time weighted returns per year vs. the average of -1.56%. Older and more expensive funds are associated with investor clientele that times more poorly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>3\/Equity fund suffer more than bond funds. <\/strong>Authors find that poor timing phenomenon is largely unique to mutual funds which attracts the less sophisticated and more active investors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Buy_High_and_Sell_Low_Why_might_this_happen\"><\/span><b>Buy High and Sell Low: Why might this happen? <\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">We are still investigating this. But one mechanism may be that if most managers have a particular style or expertise &#8211; say value investing or small cap stock investing &#8211; the returns those styles generate tend to be cyclical and weakly related over long runs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">In this story investors do not pay attention to the long term cyclical factor but are overconfident in their ability to predict returns by extrapolating based on the past few months&#8217; or years&#8217; performance. These overconfident investors might systematically jump in when returns have been high for the past few months and jump out when returns have been low in the last few months. In combination with the flow phenomenon if simply using the last few months&#8217; or years&#8217; performance is not a good (or statistically significant) way to predict returns, these investors are in fact &#8220;buying&#8221; high (when past performance is high) and &#8220;selling&#8221; low (when past performance is low).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">Similarly if institutions can only find support for a manager after a 3 to 5 year track record of good performance, then the next 3 to 5 years may not be as good since either the style\/factor valuations are high which suggest lower future returns, or seeing that style of investing become successful, a lot more funds start offering such products, thus crowding out the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_what_to_do\"><\/span>So what to do?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>1\/Be proactive and understand the style of the manager<\/strong> and reflect how well that particular investing style works for you. Do your diligence and do not judge simply based on past returns.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>2\/If the style works for you, stick with it<\/strong> unless something fundamentally changes. For example, you have an unforeseen cash need etc.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\"><strong>3\/Keep a safeguard on impulsive decision making<\/strong> say by committing to have at least one long conversation with your spouse or good friend before you can change your investment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">So do not be Newton in investing!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in; margin-bottom: .0001pt;\">p.s.
