The aim of this paper is to investigate the momentum effect in country-level anomalies in global equity markets. By using a sample of 78 countries for the period from 1995 to 2015, we test a set of potential 40 cross-sectional inter-market anomalies, some of which had never been examined before....

Adrian, Crump, and Vogt (2019) find that a nonlinear specification is required to identify a reliable relation between VIX and the equity premium. We reexamine this risk-return issue in a multi-risk framework with VIX and T-bond risk (MOVE). We find that: (1) the `MOVE-equity premium' relation...

Option-implied volatility-managed risk factor models produce higher maximum squared Sharpe ratios than the recently proposed six-factor model, which is used as a benchmark model in this study. A model that incorporates option-implied volatility-managed risk factors based on dynamic scaling...

In this paper, we examine the presence of short-term and long-term momentum returns in Indian stock market. The study also tries to shed light on the power of asset pricing models and select macroeconomic variables in explaining momentum returns. The results confirm the presence of short-term...

This paper uses a sample of firms listed in the NYSE, AMEX, and NASDAQ between January 1963 and December 2012 to analyze the interaction between size effect and momentum effect in cross-sectional stock returns. Furthermore, this paper focuses on the evolution of this interaction through...

This paper examines the momentum effect and its causes, the persistence in default risk change in particular, in both corporate bond and stock markets. Using a comprehensive bond dataset, we observe a significant momentum effect in corporate bond returns and bond credit spread changes. The...

This paper shows that growth in average firm size in U.S. industrial portfolios predicts future growth in average firm size. Moreover, the payoffs of industrial portfolios sorted by growth in average firm size in the previous period increase linearly as we move from lowest to highest growth in...

I generalize the long-run risks (LRR) model of Bansal and Yaron (2004) by incorporating recursive smooth ambiguity aversion preferences from Klibanoff et al. (2005, 2009) and time-varying ambiguity. Relative to the Bansal-Yaron model, the generalized LRR model is as tractable but more flexible...
