Real stock prices seem to overreact to changes in long-term interest rates. That is, real stock prices drop when long-term interest rates rise (and rise when they fall) more than would be implied by a rational expectations present value model where expectations are based on a vector...

Researchers in finance very often rely on highly persistent – nearly integrated – explanatory variables to predict returns. However, statistical inference in predictive regressions depends critically upon the stochastic properties of the posited explanatory variable, and in particular, of...

We present a simple dynamical model of stock index returns which is grounded on the ability of the Cyclically Adjusted Price Earning (CAPE) valuation ratio devised by Robert Shiller to predict long-horizon performances of the market. More precisely, we discuss a discrete time dynamics in which...
