Abstract

This paper examines the performance of a general dynamic equity inde-xing strategy based on cointegration, from a market efficiency perspective, observing the different levels of risk and regimes. This new portfolio will be compared with Markowitz portfolio model. The identification of these auto-regressive regimes in the process of generating returns in the Brazilian Market, especially in Bovespa, for the Plano Real period (January of 1995 to Septem-ber of 2004), will be elaborated trough a Markov Switching Model. With this model, is possible to identify the nonlinear structure of the data and it is rela-tion to the conditional mean and conditional variance. As result the dynamics of the data generation process, the returns can be described as function of the growth cycle (“bull markets†) and decrease (“bear markets†).
