We use macroeconomic characteristics and exposures to Carry and Dollar as instruments to estimate a latent factor model with time-varying betas with the instrumented principal components analysis (IPCA) method by Kelly et al. (2020). On a pure out-of-sample basis, this model can explain up to...

We develop an Artificial Stock Market - an agent-based simulation model of the stock market with many risky assets. The ASM has three layers of heterogeneous and interacting agents, and generates prices for 150 stocks. We present the current state of the model and demonstrate its ability to...

The implied cost of capital (ICC), the internal rate of return that equates speculative stock price to discounted expected future dividends, includes a mispricing-driven component in addition to expected return. The estimated relation of a mispricing-associated factor (X) with ICC is thus a...

This study is the first to test a financing-based misvaluation factor (UMO, undervalued-minus-overvalued), first proposed by Hirshleifer and Jiang (2010), for the Pakistani stock market. I find that the UMO factor, long underpriced (repurchase) stocks and short overpriced (new issue) stocks,...

Assuming that risk premiums are determined by failure risk, we present a stylized model of interactions among risk-proxy variables, external financing, and stock returns in which a common mispricing factor, involving operating profit and external financing, drives the following five asset...
