International Stock Return Comovements [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, 2005
We examine international stock return comovements using country-industry and country-style portfolios. We first establish that parsimonious risk-based factor models capture the covariance structure of the data better than the popular Heston-Rouwenhorst ...

Jackknifing Stock Return Predictions [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2008
We show that the general bias reducing technique of jackknifing can be successfully applied to stock return predictability regressions. Compared to standard OLS estimation, the jackknifing procedure delivers virtually unbiased estimates with mean squared errors that generally dominate those of the OLS estimates.

Heteroskedasticity in Stock Returns [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, 1990
ABSTRACTWe use predictions of aggregate stock return variances from daily data to estimate time‐varying monthly variances for size‐ranked portfolios. We propose and estimate a single factor model of heteroskedasticity for portfolio returns. This model implies time‐varying betas. Implications of heteroskedasticity and time‐varying betas for tests of the

Motivated Beliefs about Stock Returns

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Does holding a stock bias one’s expectations about its future value? We find experimental evidence that it does. First, in a laboratory experiment we elicit peoples’ price predictions for simulated stocks and compare these with the Bayesian benchmark.

Comoment Risk and Stock Return [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
AbstractWe estimate investable comoment equity risk premiums for the US markets. The stock's contribution to the asymmetry and the fat tails of the market portfolio's payoff are priced into a coskewness premium and a cokurtosis premium. We construct zero-investment strategies that are long and short in coskewness and cokurtosis equity risks; we infer ...

Multifrequency News and Stock Returns [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Financial Economics, 2005
Recent research documents that aggregate stock prices are driven by shocks with persistence levels ranging from daily intervals to several decades. Building on these insights, we introduce a parsimonious equilibrium model in which regime-shifts of heterogeneous durations affect the volatility of dividend news.

REGIME CHANGES IN STOCK RETURNS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Business Finance & Accounting, 1994
This paper studies three sources of instability in parameter estimates of stock return models (1) time‐varying expected mean returns, (2) time‐varying return volatility and (3) changing institutional factors. We model United States stock returns as a function of a constant expected return and financing costs resulting from an institutional feature ...

Forecasting US Stock Returns [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
We forecast quarterly US stock returns using 25 predictor variables. We consider a breadth of forecast methods and metrics, including bi- and multi-variate regressions, linear and non-linear models, rolling and recursive techniques, forecast combinations and statistical and economic evaluation.

Profit persistence and stock returns [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Economics, 2016
This paper attempts to assemble further empirical evidence on the relationship between the product and the financial market. Drawing back on work in industrial organization, we analyse the relationship between profit persistence and factor adjusted stock returns looking at about 2000 listed US firms over the last 34 years.
