Using a high frequency tactical asset allocation, the winner stocks continued to yield a significant large return in one day after portfolio formation and the losers reported insignificant return, hence, momentum is found to be profitable strategy in one-day holding period with an average return of above 14% per annum. A significant contrarian profitability of over 5% is also observed in 3 and 10 days holding period. Furthermore, the result shows Friday and January effect within momentum return in one day holding period.The British University in Dubai (BUiD)2013-05-21T07:27:06Z2013-05-21T07:27:06Z2012-06Dissertationapplication/pdf80069http://bspace.buid.ac.ae/handle/1234/108enoai:bspace.buid.ac.ae:1234/1082021-10-06T12:01:49Z
