Avramov et al. (2013) link the relationship between asset pricing anomalies and credit ratings in the U.S stock market. This study investigates the relationship between asset pricing anomalies and credit ratings in the Taiwan stock market. We find that the anomaly-based trading strategies, including idiosyncratic volatility, turnover, size, book-to-market ratio and earnings momentum, are driven by firms with high credit risk. By contrast, the anomaly-based trading strategies such as price momentum and price-to-earnings ratio are driven by firms with low credit risk. The total asset growth anomaly, however, is concentrated in firms with extremely high credit risk.
