Starting on the wrong foot: Seasonality in mutual fund performance

Abstract: We document a systematic seasonal component in the aggregate underperformance of active mutual funds. At the aggregate level, active funds underperform the market and other passive benchmarks only in the first month of a quarter. This intra-quarter performance seasonality holds across fund sizes and investment styles. The pattern is consistent with shortterm stock return reversal effects along with aggregate window-dressing and, to a lesser extent, NAV-inflation practices around quarter-ends.

“…We also expand our study window to five days around the end of each period and find that the NAV inflation effect barely exists, supporting the hypothesis that the price impact of NAV inflation is temporary, which is consistent with the work of Bernhardt and Davis (2009), Brown et al (2017), and Carhart et al (2002). We thus opt to use the two-day window in our remaining tests.…”

“…Porém, apenas recentemente a possibilidade da ocorrência de sazonalidades na indústria de fundos tem sido objeto de estudos (Alves, 2014;Białkowski et al, 2013;Brown et al, 2017;Choi, 2015;Choi, Ryu, & Seok, 2017;Gallagher & Pinnuck, 2006;Kamstra et al, 2017;Malaquias & Mamede, 2015;Mamede & Malaquias, 2017;Matallín-Sáez, 2006;Vidal-García & Vidal, 2014). A busca por pesquisas sob este tema foi feita nos principais repositórios científicos nacionais 1 e internacionais 2 , contemplando o período 2006-2018 utilizando diferentes combinações das seguintes palavras chaves: "sazonalidade" "fundos de investimento" "padrões sazonais" "anomalias de mercado" "efeito calendário" "efeito janeiro" "fluxo financeiro" "fundos de ações".…”

“…ii) A possibilidade de certos efeitos sazonais, como o Efeito Janeiro, serem observados também nos fundos de investimento que alocam a maior parte dos ativos de suas carteiras no mercado de ações (Alves, 2014;Białkowski et al, 2013;Brown et al, 2017;Choi, 2015;Choi, Ryu, & Seok, 2017;Gallagher & Pinnuck, 2006;Kamstra et al, 2017;Malaquias & Mamede, 2015;Mamede & Malaquias, 2017;Matallín-Sáez, 2006;Vidal-García & Vidal, 2014); iii) Os investidores dos fundos de ações podem fazer o resgate ou aplicação de novas cotas conforme suas expectativas, em resposta às alterações do mercado financeiro, bem como com o intuito de rever sua alocação de recursos.…”
