Random Walk Theory

Author Burton Malkiel

"A Random Walk Down Wall Street“

top-seller finance book

Stock price changes have the same distribution

and are independent of each other, so the past

movement or trend of a stock price or market

cannot be used to predict its future movement.

Followers think that the market cannot be

outperformed without assuming additional risk.

Critics say stocks actually form trends at length

and it is possible to beat the market through

careful study of buying & selling points.

Efficient Market Hypothesis

It is impossible to "beat the market" because

stock market efficiency causes existing share

prices to always incorporate and reflect all

relevant information.

Stocks always trade at their fair value on stock

exchanges, making it impossible for investors to

either purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks

for inflated prices.

It is impossible to outperform the overall market

through expert stock selection or market timing,

and that the only way an investor can possibly

obtain higher returns is by purchasing riskier

investments.

Efficient Market Hypothesis

A cornerstone of modern financial theory

Believers argue it is pointless to search for undervalued

stocks or to try to predict trends in the market through

either fundamental or technical analysis.

Warren Buffett has consistently beaten the market over

long periods of time, which by EMH is impossible

The 1987 stock market crash when the Dow Jones

Industrial Average (DJIA) fell by over 20% in a single day,

is evidence that stock prices can seriously deviate from

their fair values.

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

INVESTMENT ANALYSIS

Fundamental Analysis Technical Analysis

Traditional economic + Business

concepts = value of investment

Study of past market data such as

prices + volume = predict future

price movements (I.e.

stocks/markets)

Examination of the above variables

is called Valuation process

Proponents believe that the

market’s judgment of an issue’s

fundamentals are determined by

supply and demand variables that

are already reflected in prices.

Method of forecasting future price

movements of a security based on

political, environmental & other

factors

View from financial statements View from charts

Best employed for long term investing Best employed for short term trading

Data utilized come out periodically

Tends to focus on a specific sector

Data utilized come out daily

INVESTMENT ANALYSIS


Focused on what “must” happen Focused on what happens

Top Down Approach Bottom-up Approach

Considers condition affecting

Economy

Financial Markets

Industry

Company

VALUATION PROCESS


Works best in determining market

sentiment and factor it in the

creation of investment or trading

decisions

Works best if all investors are

logical and could separate emotions

from investment decision

Will succeed if the analyst finds

overlooked data in identifying

undervalued securities

VALUATION PROCESS


Technical

analysis is the

answer!?

Technical Analysis will

improve investing?

Make sensible investment

decisions

NO!

EXPECTATIONS

Should I buy today? What

will the prices be tomorrow,

next week or next year?

YES!

AIM TO REDUCE RISKS &

IMPROVE PROFITS

DON’T AIM TO PREDICT PRICES

CONSISTENTLY & ACCURATELY

DEFINITION

The study of prices, with charts as the

primary tool.

A method of evaluating securities by

analyzing statistics generated by market

activity, such as past prices and volume.

DEFINITION

Once viewed as arcane or mystical but

today it is part of every major investment

or trading decision.

Evolving quickly such that techniques

today may be rendered incomplete or

obsolete tomorrow.

Used as the basis for

automated trading.

ADVANTAGES

Portability

Price based trade or

investment planning

Does not require knowledge of many

mathematical formulas

DISADVANTAGES

May not be used to predict future price

action

Not easy to use with IPOs

May miss 20-25% of the movement

It has a tendency to create self fulfilling

prophecies

Subjectivity

A chart is a picture

A picture is worth a thousand words…

or probably a thousand dollars

Technical analysts

do not attempt to

measure a

security's intrinsic

value, but instead

use charts to

identify patterns

that can suggest

future activity.

Technical

analysts believe

that the historical

performance of

stocks and

markets are

indications of

future

performance.

Equally applicable on any security or tradable

financial instrument (stocks, bonds, commodities,

futures, indices, mutual fund, options)

In a shopping mall

Fundamental analyst: will

go to each store, study the

product and then decide

whether to buy it or not

Technical analyst: will

watch people go into the

stores. Decision would be

based on the patterns or

activity of people going into

each store.

HUMAN ELEMENT

Humans are not easily

quantifiable nor predictable

Many investment decisions are

based on irrelevant criteria

The price of a security is a

consensus of at least two humans

The price depends on human

expectations

HUMAN ELEMENT

The breadth of market participants guarantees

an element of unpredictability and excitement

Why Do Prices Fluctuate?

MARKET PSYCHOLOGY

Each investors would have his or her own opinion

about a certain security or any other object for that

matter

MARKET CYCLE

Distribution

1. The market discounts

everything

2. Price moves in trends

3. History tends to repeat itself

BASIC ASSUMPTIONS

Dow Jones Theory 1890

Basic Principles of Dow Theory:

1. Averages discount everything

2. Market trends [primary (tide), intermediate or

secondary (waves), tertiary (ripples)]

3. Bull and bear markets

4. Lines (tight sideways band)

5. Averages must confirm

6. A trend continues until it is reversed

7. Volume goes with trend

Open - The first price traded for

the period. An important

consensus as all interested

parties were able to “sleep on it”.

High - The highest price traded

for the period. The point where

there were more sellers than

buyers.

Low - The lowest price traded for

the period. The point where there

were more buyers that sellers.

Close – The last price traded for the

period. Most often used price for analysis.

The relationship of the open and close

prices is considered most significant by

technicians.

VOLUME HISTOGRAMS

Steep price increases not

supported by volume are

usually dangerous

CHART INDICATORS & OSCILLATORS

Indicators are essentially calculations based on the price and the

volume of a security and measures factors such as money flow,

trends, volatility and momentum


Indicators are used as a measure to gain further insight into to

the supply and demand of securities

Also used to confirm price movement and the probability that the

given move will continue

Can also be used as a basis for trading as they can form buy-

and-sell signals


Oscillators = indicators that are plotted within a bounded range

fluctuate into overbought and oversold conditions based on set

levels based on the specific oscillator usually 30 and 70


Leading Lagging

Predictive, strongest during

periods of sideways or non-

trending trading ranges

Users need to be careful to make

sure the indicator is heading in

the same direction as the trend

Many buy and sell signals that

make it better for choppy non-

trending markets

Confirmatory, more useful

during trending periods

Better to have less entry and

exit points

Usually gives late entry and

exit points


Leading indicators are those created to proceed the price

movements of a security giving predictive qualities.

Two of the most well-known leading indicators are the Relative

Strength Index (RSI) and the Stochastics Oscillator

The Stochastic Oscillator compares where a security’s price

closed relative to its price range over a given time period.

Interpretation:

• Buy when %K or %D lines fall below oversold level

• Sell when %K or %D lines rise above overbought level

• Buy when %K line rises above %D line

• Sell when %K line falls below %D line

• Look for divergences



Negative divergence


Positive divergence


Lagging indicators are those that follows price movements and

have less predictive qualities

Well-known lagging indicators are the moving averages, Bollinger

bands and MACD

Useful during trending periods but not during non-trending

periods

Tend to focus more on the trend and produce fewer buy-and-sell

signals

This indicator is comprised of two moving averages, which help to

measure momentum in the security

MACD = shorter term moving average - longer term moving average

Signal line = 9-day exponential moving average



Indicators are used to form buy and sell signals are through

crossovers and divergence

Indicators are also used through divergence, which occurs when

the direction of the price trend and the direction of the indicator

trend are moving in the opposite direction

Two types of divergence - positive and negative. Positive

divergence occurs when the indicator is trending upward while

the security is trending downward

Monetary Indicators - provide insights on external monetary

conditions affecting a security’s price. These basically deal with

economic information such as interest rates, money supply,

corporate debt, inflation, GNP, GDP etc. tells us what security

prices should do.

Sentiment Indicators - are studies on investor expectations

based on price. In large markets, studies may be done on odd lot

boards, the number of call/put ratios, premium on stock index

futures, bull/bear ratio. Tells us what investors expect prices to

do.

Momentum Indicators - are deeper studies on price such as

price/volume indicators, breadth index.Tells us what prices are

actually doing.

BLENDING TECHNICAL & FUNDAMENTAL

ANALYSIS (also INTERMARKET ANALYSIS)

• TA may confirm a FA finding

• FA is useful in identifying which security to invest in

• TA is useful for timing the investment

• Volume trends give additional insights to your research

• Tracking short term movements

• Tracking reactions over time

DISADVANTAGES OF BLENDING

It's History!

A simple chart cannot provide the investor with crucial long-

term fundamental information such as the future direction of

cash flows or earnings per share.


The Crowd is Sometimes Wrong

It is possible that a stock that's being accumulated en masse this

week may be under heavy distribution the next. Conversely,

stocks that are being heavily sold this week may be under

accumulation in the weeks to come.


Charts Don't Typically or Consistently Forecast Macro Trends

Charts also are generally unable to accurately forecast

macroeconomic trends.

Example, it is nearly impossible to look at a major player in the

oil and gas sector and decipher definitively whether OPEC

intends to increase the amount of oil it pumps, or whether a fire

that just started at a shipping facility in Venezuela will affect

near-term supplies.


There is Subjectivity

When it comes to reading a chart, a certain amount of subjectivity

comes into play. Some may see a chart and feel that a stock is

basing, while another person might see it and conclude that there

is still more downside to be had.

EXAMPLES OF BLENDING

IMPROVED TRADING/INVESTING

Creating a System

• Information reaches you

• Check fundamentals of the security

• Look at the chart, start with the big picture

• Try to relate known incidents w/ price action

• Make references for current prices vs historical price

• Zoom in to current price performance

• Identify trends, patterns currently affecting price movement

• Check volume histogram & choice indicator/s

• Compute risk vs. reward

•Draw a strategy: how much to invest & when to enter/exit

• Manage your strategy

Convenient for plotting

large numbers

Equal line segments represent multiples

by a constant factor

Its use would be limited by its lack of detail

can plot a great many more

years than is possible on a

linear scale

CHART

COMPOSITION

Grid

If we were to divide each broad segment

into nine segments and let the ticks

represent the years from 1 to 10, 10 to

100, and 100 to 1000, this is how it would

look:

Each broad segment is

subdivided in the same way

Each tick within a broad segment

represents a multiple of 10 over

the corresponding tick in the

previous segment. For example,

in the segment 100 to 101 the first

mark equals 2. In the segment

101 to 102 the first mark equals

20, and in the segment 102 to 103,

the first mark equals 200

The uneven spacing is because you are

working with the logarithmic function of these

actual numbers not the numbers themselves

log (10) = 1.00

log (20) = 1.30

log (30) = 1.48

log (40) = 1.60

log (50) = 1.70

log (60) = 1.78

log (70) = 1.85

log (80) = 1.90

log (90) = 1.95
