Resumo: Low volatility and R&D to market equity based investment strategies can yield abnormal returns on the US equity market. In the first place we are improving the low volatility strategy by using a volatility timing signal, that invests in past winner stocks when the market outlook is bullish. Secondly, the long only R&D portfolio can be improved by making it a zero-investment strategy, that short- sells low R&D past losers. In the last part wes how that a combined risk-parity portfolio, that rebalances the two investment strategies on a monthly basis outperforms all common benchmarks between 2001 and2020.
