• Accounting information can supplement technical information to separate winners from losers.
• BOS ratio and two fundamental indicators are incorporated into momentum strategy.
• A combined momentum strategy may generate higher returns for both growth and value stocks.
This study examines how fundamental accounting information can be used to supplement technical information to separate momentum winners from losers. We first introduce a ratio of liquidity buy volume to liquidity sell volume (BOS ratio) to proxy the level of information asymmetry for stocks and show that the BOS momentum strategy can enhance the profits of momentum strategy. We further propose a unified framework, produced by incorporating two fundamental indicators—the FSCORE (Piotroski, 2000) and the GSCORE (Mohanram, 2005)—into momentum strategy. The empirical results show that the combined investment strategy includes stocks with a larger information content that the market cannot reflect in time, and therefore, the combined investment strategy outperforms momentum strategy by generating significantly higher returns.
