Abstract
The article investigates the performance of bond funds including the composite, high-yield, and emerging market bond funds accounted for more than 60% of the bond funds sold in Taiwan. We screen these funds by taking the preference, budgeting, and strategy concerns related to individual investors’ behaviors into account. By employing the math combinations to meet with the above concerns, the results reveal that employing the contrarian strategy is more appropriate for investing these bond funds. Although we argue that individual investors indeed would take these concerns for mutual fund investments, this study, to the best of our knowledge, would contribute the literature by proposing the math combinations in connection with various concerns related to investors’ behaviors, which is uncovered in the relevant studies.
