Abstract: We relook at the classic equity fund selection and portfolio construction problems from a new perspective and propose an easy-to-implement framework to tackle the problem in practical investment. Rather than the conventional way by constructing a long only portfolio from a big universe of stocks or macro factors, we show how to produce a long-short portfolio from a smaller pool of stocks from mutual fund top holdings and generate impressive results. As these methods are based on statistical evidence, we need closely monitoring the model validity, and prepare repair strategies.
