Summary:碩士 === 國立雲林科技大學 === 企業管理系碩士班 === 99 === Lottery-type stocks have speculative characteristics. This study according to Kumar (2008) definition of lottery-type stocks : (1) idiosyncratic volatility, (2) idiosyncratic skewness, and (3) stock price. Then we use Fama-French four-factory model and Harvey and Siddique’s two-factory model for the identify lottery and non-lottery type stock criteria to Taiwan stock market from 2005 to 2009. And we combine those type stocks with mispricing effect. The purpose of this paper is investigating the four type stocks which will perform momentum effect in short-term or reverse in long-term, and figure out if investor can earn abnormal returns or not. The empirical result shows that momentum strategy for lottery type stocks performance is more significant than non-lottery stocks, so take the zero-cost strategy to buy lottery type stocks which is undervalued and selling non-lottery type stocks which is overvalued can earn abnormal returns, especially holding this strategy returns is more significant in twelve month. The robust test results show that returns of the momentum strategy we find aren’t affected by business cycle and January effect. The study results shows that Taiwan stock market is exist momentum effect in long-term underreaction.
