Abstract: This study aims to test the validity of the Fama–French Asset Pricing Model, which has become a six-factor along with the inclusion of the momentum factor, in terms of Borsa Istanbul. In this context, nested asset pricing models were assessed, and different estimators were developed to determine which of the models explains the stock returns more strongly. The returns (more than the risk-free interest rate) of 24 different portfolios and a total of 9,504 portfolios for 396 weeks, throughout October 2013–May 2021, are utilized based on the BV/MV, profitability, investment, and momentum factors. The results obtained from the research study indicate the Fama–French Six-Factor Asset Pricing Model (FF6F) as the most effective model in explaining stock returns for Borsa Istanbul. For investors, the momentum factor is the one that needs to be regarded and allows higher returns to be obtained, and the necessity of considering it before making investment decisions is one of the practical contributions of the research study. Determining the momentum factor as a factor that should be considered upon making investment decisions would constitute the contribution of the research study to the literature.
