Conventional wisdom suggests small, simple models are best suited for market timing applications, given finance’s “small data” constraint and naturally low predictability. However, in our latest, we show that complex models better identify true nonlinear relationships and therefore produce better market timing strategy performance. We validate this "virtue of complexity" result in three practical market timing applications: https://bit.ly/3WvF3AM

Much of the existing academic finance literature predicts market returns with “simple” models that use only a few parameters. In this article, AQR’s Bryan Kelly and co-authors theoretically prove that, contrary to conventional wisdom, simple models severely understate return predictability compared to “complex” models in which the number of parameters exceeds the number of observations. They empirically document the virtue of complexity in U.S. equity market return prediction, and their findings establish the rationale for modeling expected returns through machine learning.
