Though past
performance of a scheme is not an indicator
of its
future performance and good
performance in the past may or may not be sustained in the
future, this is one
of the important
factors for making investment decision.
If the
factors were neutral, having zero expectation
of future performance, they would be betas.
All past returns
of the strategies and
factors are not a guarantee
of future performance.
Each firm's prospects are driven by a unique constellation
of factors (for example, whether the industry is capital - intensive or not, whether its earnings are interest rate sensitive, what the barriers to entry are) and so you have to go through a painstaking process
of disassembling and studying each as if it were a machine, with an eye to identifying its likely
future performance and possible failure points.
In a vacuum and in theory I get that you can't go on past
performance at the end
of the day as a main
factor for
future performance, but then that would be the end
of all debate and discussion regarding mutual funds and everything else under the sun for point # 1.
This model uses the most recent five - year
performance of a
factor or strategy to forecast its
future return.
The two assumptions we take issue with are that past

However, the conditions predicted for the open ocean may not reflect the
future conditions in the coastal zone, where many
of these organisms live (Hendriks et al. 2010a, b; Hofmann et al. 2011; Kelly and Hofmann 2012), and results derived from changes in pH in coastal ecosystems often include processes other than OA, such as emissions from volcanic vents, eutrophication, upwelling and long - term changes in the geological cycle
of CO2, which commonly involve simultaneous changes in other key
factors affecting the
performance of calcifiers, thereby confounding the response expected from OA by anthropogenic CO2 alone.
