The mean-semivariance CAPM strongly outperforms the traditional mean-variance CAPM in terms of its ability to explain the cross-section of US stock returns. If regular beta is replaced by downside beta, the traditional risk-return relationship is restored. The downside betas of low-beta stocks...

We investigate whether the asymmetry on micro level is carried … conclude that the first type of asymmetry can be attributed to the differences in adjustment bands and that heterogeneity … softens this effect. The second type of asymmetry is the result of pricing behavior, thus of agent heterogeneity itself. …
