Abstract

[eng] Portfolio selection : intersectoral arbitrage is now predominant . The most recent literature shows that portfolio selection has significantly changed : intersectoral arbitrage has become predominant First, this article draws up a classification of all the characteristic features of the different sectors of activity by determining how they react to the general cycle of economic activity and to what extent (degree) they depend on the fluctuations of the financial market. The authors bring these two criteria together, which leads them to compare both sectoral pricing and portfolio investment to the general cycle of economic activity. This analysis concerns the French stock market over the years 1994-2003. Two categories of sectors particularly relevant from a strategic point of view are identified : . - sectors which lead the economic cycle : the riskiest and consequently the best performing ones when the market is bullish ; . - sectors which lag behind the economic cycle : the safest ones and consequently the best performing ones when the market is bearish. . JEL classification : E44, G11, G12 [fre] La littérature récente sur la logique de sélection de portefeuille illustre le rôle devenu prépondérant d’une logique d’arbitrages intersectoriels. Cet article établit tout d’abord une typologie des secteurs selon leur positionnement par rapport au cycle général d’activité et selon leur degré de sensibilité par rapport au marché. Puis, les auteurs croisent ces deux critères, ce qui conduit ensuite à positionner le cycle de la valorisation sectorielle et de l’investissement de portefeuille par rapport au cycle général d’activité réelle. Cette analyse est appliquée au marché français des actions en rapport avec la conjoncture économique française, sur la période 1994-2003. Deux ensembles de secteurs particulièrement stratégiques sont alors identifiés : . - des secteurs en avance sur la conjoncture, donc plus risqués, et plus sur-performants en phase haussière du marché ; . - des secteurs en retard sur la conjoncture, donc moins risqués et plus sur-performants en phase baissière du marché. . Classification JEL : E44, G11, G12
