factor.explanation

The turnover rate volatility coefficient reflects the degree of volatility of a stock's turnover rate over a period of time. When the coefficient is high, it means that the stock's turnover rate fluctuates greatly, and investors may face greater liquidity risks in future transactions, that is, it is difficult to sell or buy stocks at the expected price and speed, resulting in higher transaction costs and uncertainty. Therefore, stocks with high turnover rate volatility usually require a higher risk premium to compensate investors for the additional liquidity risk they bear. This factor is often used to construct quantitative investment models as one of the indicators to measure stock liquidity risk, and may be used in combination with other risk factors to improve the accuracy of model predictions.
