跨资产类别的共同定价：重新审视经验证据AI 解读

Intermediary and downside risk asset pricing theories lay the foundations for spanning the multi-asset return space by a small number of risk factors. Recent studies show strong empirical support for such factors across major asset classes. We revisit these results and show that robust evidence for common factor pricing remains elusive. Importantly, the proposed risk factors do not seem to provide incremental information to the traditional market factor. We argue that most…

好得难以置信？风险因子模型评价中的谬误AI 解读

This paper is concerned with statistical inference and model evaluation in possibly misspecified and unidentified linear asset pricing models estimated by maximum likelihood. Strikingly, when spurious factors (that is, factors that are uncorrelated with the returns on the test assets) are present, the model exhibits perfect fit, as measured by the squared correlation between the model’s fitted expected returns and the average realized returns. Furthermore, factors that are…

降秩资产定价模型中的虚假推断AI 解读

We study some seemingly anomalous results that arise in possibly misspecified, reduced-rank linear asset-pricing models estimated by the continuously updated generalized method of moments. When a spurious factor (that is, a factor that is uncorrelated with the returns on the test assets) is present, the test for correct model specification has asymptotic power that is equal to the nominal size. In other words, applied researchers will erroneously conclude that the model is…

定价模型表现与两步横截面回归方法AI 解读

ABSTRACT Over the years, many asset pricing studies have employed the sample cross‐sectional regression (CSR) R 2 as a measure of model performance. We derive the asymptotic distribution of this statistic and develop associated model comparison tests, taking into account the impact of model misspecification on the variability of the CSR estimates. We encounter several examples of large R 2 differences that are not statistically significant. A version of the intertemporal…

资产定价模型评估与比较的卡方检验AI 解读

This paper presents a general statistical framework for estimation, testing and comparison of asset pricing models using the unconstrained distance measure of Hansen and Jagannathan (1997). The limiting results cover both linear and nonlinear models that could be correctly specified or misspecified. We propose modified versions of the existing model selection tests and new pivotal specification and model comparison tests with improved finite-sample properties. In addition,…

GMM样本矩条件极限分布的进一步结果AI 解读

In this article, we examine the limiting behavior of generalized method of moments (GMM) sample moment conditions and point out an important discontinuity that arises in their asymptotic distribution. We show that the part of the scaled sample moment conditions that gives rise to degeneracy in the asymptotic normal distribution is T-consistent and has a nonstandard limiting distribution. We derive the appropriate asymptotic (weighted chi-squared) distribution when this…

模仿组合、经济风险溢价与多贝塔模型检验AI 解读

We consider two formulations of the linear factor model (LFM) with nontraded factors. In the first formulation, LFM, risk premia and alphas are estimated by a cross-sectional regression of average returns on betas. In the second formulation, LFM*, the factors are replaced by their projections on the span of excess returns, and risk premia and alphas are estimated by time series regressions. We compare the two formulations and study the small-sample properties of estimates…
