Factor

This study employs TEJ’s Point-in-Time Audited Financial Database to construct a composite factor for stock selection in Taiwan’s equity market. By preserving financial data exactly as available at each historical moment, the framework avoids look-ahead bias and ensures empirical reliability. Integrating profitability, growth, financial health, and operating efficiency into a standardized score, we find that higher-ranked portfolios deliver significant short-term excess returns, while predictive power weakens over longer horizons. The results highlight the practical value of Point-in-Time financial data for quantitative factor investing and underscore its role in building replicable, data-driven investment strategies.
