We provide a short and selected review of the vast literature on cross-section predictability. We focus on the state of art methods used to forecast the cross-section of stock returns with major predictors and are primarily interested in the ideas, methods, and their applications. To understand...

Many studies have found that portfolios of low beta stocks have higher growth rates than portfolios of high beta stocks and have concluded that low beta stocks have higher growth rates than high beta stocks. Since rational investor behavior is thought to imply that additional risk is rewarded...

We investigate the pricing of systematic tail risk measured by tail beta in the Chinese equity market. Using an array of tests, we examine the performance of more than 3,300 stocks for the years 1999 through 2018. Contrary to evidence from developed markets, we demonstrate a strong negative...

We show theoretically that when Bayesian investors face time-series uncertainty about assets' risk exposures, differences in their priors affect the pricing of risk in the cross-section: different priors for the same asset can generate differences in perceived risk exposures, and thereby...

Using high frequency data, we develop an event study method to test for level shifts in beta and measure abnormal returns for events that produce such level shifts. Using this method, we estimate abnormal returns for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) announcement and find that its...

This paper proposes a new approach to control the effects of time-varying parameters on the estimates of abnormal returns. Event studies usually assume that the parameters of the market model are stable. Using a sample of firm takeovers, however, I find that this assumption is indeed rejected....
