We have compiled a list of books, journal articles and working papers that were helpful in developing our research around momentum strategies.
Journal Article
Do Industries Explain Momentum?
August 1, 1999
The ability to outperform buy-and-hold strategies by acquiring past winning stocks and selling past losing stocks, commonly referred to as "individual stock momentum," remains one of the most puzzling of these anomalies, both because of its magnitude (up to 12 percent abnormal return per dollar long on a self-financing strategy per year) and because of the peculiar horizon pattern that it seems to follow: Trading based on individual stock momentum appears to be a poor strategy when using a short historical horizon for portfolio formation (especially less than one month); it is highly profitable at intermediate horizons (up to 24 months, although it is strongest in the 6- to 12-month range); and is again a poor strategy at longer horizons. This paper largely focuses on the positive persistence in stock returns (or momentum effect) over intermediate investment horizons (6 to 12 months) and explores various explanations for its existence.
Journal Article

We find consistent value and momentum return premia across eight diverse markets and asset classes, and a strong common factor structure among their returns.
Perspective
Fama on Momentum

Statements that cast doubt on the implementability of momentum investing are just not close to being true. Looking at the numbers, we seek to disprove a whole gaggle of the misperceptions here.

Momentum is the phenomenon that securities that have performed well relative to peers (winners) on average continue to outperform, and securities that have performed relatively poorly (losers) tend to continue to underperform.
Working Paper
Understanding Momentum and Reversals
June 9, 2020
Stock momentum, long-term reversal, and other past return characteristics that predict future returns also predict future realized betas, suggesting these characteristics capture time-varying risk compensation.
Journal Article
Factor Momentum Everywhere
January 29, 2019
Can individual factors be reliably timed based on their recent performance? This study of 65 widely-studied, characteristic-based equity factors aims to find out.
Working Paper

Momentum Crashes
September 1, 2016
A momentum strategy is a bet that past returns will predict future returns in the cross-section of assets, and is typically implemented by buying past winners and selling past losers.
