Robust Bond Risk Premia Predictability Test in the Quantiles
债券风险溢价可预测性的稳健分位数检验
Different from existing literature on testing the macro-spanning hypothesis of bond risk premia, which only considers mean regressions, this paper investigates whether the yield curve represented by CP factor (Cochrane and Piazzesi, 2005) contains all available information about future bond returns in a predictive quantile regression with many other macroeconomic variables.
