Sompo Holdings has the Momentum Rank of 6.

For Momentum Rank, we considered the residual momentum concept that was widely studied by Blitz and his colleagues as well as by Nobel Prize laureates Fama and French. However, we did not find any significant differences in the performances of stocks with different ranks of residual momentum. Therefore, we use traditional momentum instead.

Momentum Rank is determined using the standardized momentum ratio and other momentum indicators. The standardized momentum ratio is the average of the performances from 12 months ago to 1 month ago and 6 months ago to 1 month ago, divided by the beta of the stock over the past 12 months. To calculate the momentum ratio today, we would use the average of the two performance numbers.

For momentum, we found that stock price performance does not have a monotonic correlation with the momentum ratio. The stocks with the highest momentum ratios perform worse than those at about the 70th percentile. Therefore, for the momentum rank, we ranked the stocks at about the 70th percentile of the momentum ratio as the highest at 10.

Sompo Holdings (TSE:8630) Business Description

Traded in Other Exchanges
Address
26-1, Nishi-Shinjuku 1-chome, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, JPN, 160-8338
Sompo Holdings was formed in 2010 after the merger of the former Sompo Japan and Nipponkoa Insurance. The name Sompo, which literally just means "nonlife insurance" in Japanese, was adopted as a common brand in 2001 for a planned three-way merger of Yasuda Fire, Nissan Fire, and Taisei Fire, although that deal had to be reworked after Taisei Fire's sudden bankruptcy from Sept. 11 losses. In the last few years Sompo has worked to integrate the former Nipponkoa, which before the merger had been somewhat of an industry laggard, to improve overall efficiency. Although Nissan Fire is one of its predecessor firms, in reality Sompo's development has been mainly driven by the former Yasuda Fire and the group has balanced ties to most of Japan's automakers, rather than focusing on Nissan.
