Selecting Stocks by Large-Order Inflows and Relative Returns

Summary

This stock-selection strategy ranks shares using large-order net inflow and relative price performance. Its stated purchase screen looks at the prior 30 trading days, selecting stocks whose net inflow share from very large orders is among the top 5% of the universe and whose returns are also among the top 5%. The stated exit condition is triggered when a selected stock’s return falls into the bottom 5% of stocks over the same comparison period.

The document provides the screening criteria but no backtest, benchmark comparison, portfolio construction rules, or evidence about realized returns. It does not clarify whether the ranking thresholds must hold on every day in the lookback period or how often the portfolio is rebalanced. It also leaves transaction costs, liquidity, position sizing, and the treatment of ties or missing data unspecified. The strategy is therefore a concise selection rule whose practical performance and implementation details remain unestablished by the material.

Key ideas

• The strategy selects stocks using large-order net inflows and relative returns.
• The stated lookback period is 30 trading days.
• Purchases require both inflow share and returns to rank in the top 5% of stocks.
• An exit is indicated when a stock’s return ranks in the bottom 5%.
• The document does not provide backtest results or portfolio implementation details.
