Findings support the efficient market hypothesis in that no alternate trading rule shows consistent improved outcomes relative to a full market exposure buy-and-holdstrategy over the given time period. The only exception occurs briefly at the bottom of the 2008 financial crisis. Market participants that drastically alter market exposure in response to volatilereturns, however, do outperform those who alter their exposure less drastically. Furthermore, the trading rules used here appear to offer a tradeoff between risk, return volatility and wealthdevelopment that is in-part at odds with efficient market hypothesis. 2011 English text Oberlin College Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1354304083 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1354304083 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
