We theoretically characterize the behavior of machine learning asset pricing models. We prove that expected out-of-sample model performance--in terms of SDF Sharpe ratio and test asset pricing errors--is improving in model parameterization (or "complexity"). Our empirical findings verify the...

How do arbitrageurs find variables that predict returns? If a predictor lasts 30 days or more, then a clever arbitrageur can use his intuition to get the job done. But, what's an arbitrageur supposed to do if a predictor lasts 30 minutes or less? An arbitrageur's intuition is useless if the...

I construct an estimable statistic that predicts whether a financial innovation will spread. The approach embeds the multi-host SIR model from epidemiology within a financial model of correlated securities trade; and takes advantage of the related predictive tools from mathematical epidemiology,...

We show that the out-of-sample forecast of the equity risk premium can be significantly improved by taking into account the frequency-domain relationship between the equity risk premium and several potential predictors. We consider fifteen predictors from the existing literature, for the...
