This paper studies the impact of international capital flows on asset prices through risk premia. We investigate whether foreign purchases of U.S. Treasury securities significantly contributed to the decline in excess returns on long-term bonds between 1995 and 2008. We run forecasting...

This study examines the momentum effect in the returns of factor premia representing a broad set of stock market strategies. Using cross-sectional and time-series tests, we investigate the performance persistence of market, value, size, momentum, low-risk, and quality premia within a sample of...

This study examines the seasonality effect in the cross section of factor premia representing a broad set of stock market strategies. Using cross-sectional and time-series tests, we investigated the cross-sectional seasonality of market, value, size, momentum, quality, and low-risk premia within...

We investigate cross-sectional patterns related to dividends in the CEE stock market. We investigate a broad sample of 1153 companies from 11 countries in years 2002-2014. We use sorting and tests based on cross-sectional regression, and apply tests of monotonic relation. The principal findings...

The paper concentrates on the value premium across countries and contributes to the nvestment and asset pricing literature in three ways. First, I provide fresh evidence that the high-value countries perform significantly better than the low-value countries. Additionally, this phenomenon is...

Interest rate changes typically affect the value of equities. However, the slow movement of investment capital may delay the transmission of this information from interest rate markets to stocks. Using a century of data from sixty countries, we demonstrate that yield curve shifts predict future...

This paper analyses the short- and long-term effects of geopolitical uncertainty on cross-border portfolio flows between the US and 41 developed and emerging economies over the period January 1992-November 2022. We find that geopolitical uncertainty decreases equity inflows from other countries...

We study the role of sovereign debt for equity returns in the Covid-19 pandemic. Using individual stock-level data of more than 25,000 firms in more than 80 countries, we exploit variation in debt-to-GDP in narrowly defined industries and geographical regions. Following the outbreak of the...
