We construct real-time machine learning strategies based on a “universe" of fundamental signals. The out-of-sample performance of these strategies is economically meaningful and statistically significant, but considerably weaker than those documented by prior studies that use curated sets of signals as predictors. Strategies based on a simple recursive ranking of each signal's past performance also yield substantially better out-of-sample performance. We find qualitatively similar results when examining past-return-based signals. Our results suggest that using machine learning methods is beneficial for real-time investors, and that feature engineering is key to significantly enhancing such benefits.
