The acceleration effect and gamma factor in asset pricing
Ardila, Diego; Forró, Zalán; Sornette, Didier - 2015
We report strong evidence that changes of momentum, i.e. "acceleration", defined as the first difference of successive … returns, provide better performance and higher explanatory power than momentum. The corresponding Γ-factor explains the … momentum-sorted portfolios entirely but not the reverse. Thus, momentum can be considered an imperfect proxy for acceleration …

Changes in risk and asset prices
Schlesinger, Harris; Gollier, Christian - 2001
We examine asset prices in a representative-agent model of general equilibrium. Assuming only that individuals are risk averse, we determine conditions on the changes in asset risk that are both necessary and sufficient for the asset price to fall. We show that these conditions neither imply,...

Technology adoption, external financing frictions, and the cross sectional returns
Lin, Xiaoji; Palazzo, Berardino - 2015
A dynamic model featuring a stochastic technology frontier shows significant impact of technology adoption for asset prices. In equilibrium, firms operating with old capital are riskier because costly technology adoption restricts their flexibilities in upgrading to the latest technology, making...

Common risk factors in equity markets
Atanasov, Victoria - 2014 - This version: May 26, 2014
Empirical measures of world consumption growth risk have failed to rationalize the cross-section of country equity returns. We propose a new factor, termed "the global consumption factor", to explain the patterns in risk premiums on international equity markets. We identify this factor as the...

Cyclical asset returns in the consumption and investment goods sector
Heer, Burkhard; Maussner, Alfred; Süssmuth, Bernd - 2013
We document the empirical fact that asset prices in the consumption-goods and investment-goods sector behave almost identically in the US economy. In order to derive the cyclical behavior of the equity returns in these two sectors, we consider a standard two-sector real-business cycle model with...

Fund flows inducing mispricing of risk in competitive financial markets
Stahmer, Axel - 2015
This paper studies the effect of new fund flows on investment behavior and the resulting equilibrium price of risk. The Small Fund Industry model shows equilibria with overinvestment in unprofitable and underinvestment in profitable investment opportunities. The Large Fund Industry model derives...

The Cross-Section of Equity Returns and Assets’ Fundamental Cash-Flow Risk
Galsband, Victoria - 2011
The decomposition of consumption beta into a component driven by assets' cash-flow news and one related to assets' discount-rate news reveals that macroeconomic risks embodied in cash flows largely account for the cross-sectional dynamics of average stock returns. Empirically, we find that...
