Current Sorting Methodologies l Independent l l Layered l l Sparse buckets Equal # of stocks/bucket Bi-variate l Simultaneous Sorting
Independent Sort Sequential Sort Score i = (wt 1)*(Factor 1_Rankingi) + (wt 2)*(Factor 2_Rankingi) Score i = (wt 1)*(Factor 1_Rankingi) + (wt 2)*{Factor 2_Rankingi | Factor 1_Rankingi} 5 5 5 4 4 4 3 2 FACTOR 1 3 3 2 5 4 3 2 1 FACTOR 2 1 1 1
Correlation (Factor 1_Ranking, Factor 2_Ranking) = 0 Independent Sort 3 2 1 3 Factor 1 Sequential Sort 2 2 1 1 1 Factor 2 2 Factor 2 3
