Abstract

We provide evidence that factor momentum, the tendency of winning factors to outperform losing factors out-of-sample is driven by international crosscountry effects. A strategy that buys a factor in winning countries and sells it in losing countries yields highly significant and economically meaningful returns and alphas. The anomaly we name ”Cross-Country Factor Momentum” subsumes all national factor momentum returns, including US factor momentum.
