The other is that buying stocks with high enterprise value-to-sales ratios isn't generally a winner after a market regime change. One is that momentum doesn't typically comeback. So there are two factors working against those former red hot stocks. In contrast, low EV/sales stocks typically beat the market over the same time horizons irrespective of the revenue growth that is delivered. Similarly, buying stocks with the highest EV/sales ratios typically underperforms the S&P 500 during the following 1-, 3-, and 5-year periods, regardless of the sales growth that is actually delivered. Instead, low momentum, low valuation, and low growth are usually winning factors. However, once significant momentum drawdown occurs, the momentum factor is typically not associated with subsequent market leadership although the S&P 500 gains an average of 5% during the next six months. Fund managers argue that the broad sell-off in high expected growth stocks affected some firms that in their view did not merit a de-rating.
