Asset pricing of financial institutions : the cross-section of expected stock returns in the property/liability insurance industry

Ben Ammar, Semir; Eling, Martin; Milidonis, Andreas - 2015

We conduct a comprehensive asset pricing analysis for the U.S. property/liability insurance industry using monthly data from 1988 to 2015. We find that state-of-the-art models such as the Fama and French (2015) five-factor model cannot explain the returns of property/liability insurance stocks...

Predictability and the cross-section of expected returns : a challenge for asset pricing models

Schlag, Christian; Semenischev, Michael; Thimme, Julian - 2020 - This version: August 28, 2020

Many modern macro finance models imply that excess returns on arbitrary assets are predictable via the price-dividend ratio and the variance risk premium of the aggregate stock market. We propose a simple empirical test for the ability of such a model to explain the cross-section of expected...

New Evidence on Conditional Factor Models

Cooper, Ilan - 2018

We estimate conditional multifactor models over a large cross-section of stock returns matching 25 CAPM anomalies … (2015, HXZ) and Fama and French (2015, 2016, FF) models. The largest increase in performance holds for momentum, investment … dominates FF in explaining momentum and profitability anomalies, while the converse holds for value-growth anomalies. Thus, the …

Leverage asset pricing

Adrian, Tobias; Mönch, Emanuel; Shin, Hyun Song - 2013

We investigate intermediary asset pricing theories empirically and find strong support for models that have intermediary leverage as the relevant state variable. A parsimonious model that uses detrended dealer leverage as a price-of-risk variable, and innovations to dealer leverage as a pricing...

Idiosyncratic Volatility, Returns, and Mispricing : No Real Anomaly in Sight

Zaremba, Adam - 2017

Recent empirical evidence has shown that the relationship between idiosyncratic volatility and a stock's expected return depends on the pricing of the stock: it is negative among overvalued stocks and positive among undervalued ones. We provide both theoretical and numerical evidence that this...

The Fama-French Five-Factor Asset Pricing Model and Emerging Markets Equity Returns

Mosoeu, Selebogo - 2019

This paper tests the Fama-French five-factor asset-pricing model on average stock returns for emerging and selected developed equity markets. We deploy the GMM regression on 313 weekly data observations for the period January 2010 through December 2015. Unlike studies in developed countries, we...
