Return Predictability in Recessions: an Asset Pricing Perspective
I show that the dividend-price ratio predicts aggregate stock market returns with higher precision during recessions than in expansions, in a way that is both statistically and economically significant. This empirical evidence cannot be reconciled with three popular asset pricing approaches: habit-persistence (Campbell and Cochrane (1999)), long-run risk (Bansal and Yaron (2004)) and rare disas...
متن کاملBreaks in Return Predictability
We propose a new approach to forecasting stock returns in the presence of structural breaks that simultaneously affect the parameters of multiple portfolios. Exploiting information in the cross-section increases our ability to identify breaks in return prediction models and enables us to detect breaks more rapidly in real time, thereby allowing the parameters of the predictive return regression...
متن کاملElusive Return Predictability∗
Investors’ search for successful forecasting models leads the data generating process for financial returns to change over time which means that individual return forecasting models can at best hope to uncover evidence of ‘local’ predictability. We illustrate this point on a suite of forecasting models used to predict US stock returns and propose an adaptive forecast combination approach. Most ...
متن کاملState-Switching Return Predictability
Return predictability may be hidden from view if the same information has different meanings at different times, especially if information is good news in one state but bad news in another. We illustrate, using price changes in industrial metals, how conclusions on stock market return predictability vary with the number of expansions and contractions in our sample. We also show how state-switch...
متن کاملStock and bond return predictability: the discrimination power of model selection criteria
We analyze the discrimination power of well-known model selection criteria when R2 is low as in typical asset return predictability studies. We ...nd that the discrimination power is low in this setup and in particular give another interpretation to the well-cited Bossaerts and Hillion (1999) study. We then look at model selection criteria in a testing framework and propose, as a diagnostic too...
