Efficient Tests of Stock Return Predictability
Empirical studies have suggested that stock returns can be predicted by financial variables such as the dividend-price ratio. However, these studies typically ignore the high persistence of predictor variables, which can make first-order asymptotics a poor approximation in finite samples. Using a more accurate asymptotic approximation, we propose two methods to deal with the persistence problem...
متن کاملInternational Stock Return Predictability: Evidence from New Statistical Tests
We investigate whether stock returns of international markets are predictable from a range of fundamentals including key financial ratios (dividend-price ratio, dividendyield, earnings-price ratio, dividend-payout ratio), technical indicators (price pressure, change in volume), and short-term interest rates. We adopt two new alternative testing and estimation methods: the improved augmented reg...
متن کاملThe Limits to Stock Return Predictability∗
We examine predictive return regressions from a new angle. We ask what observable univariate properties of returns tell us about the “predictive space” that defines the true predictive model: the triplet ¡ λ,R2 x, ρ ¢ , where λ is the predictor’s persistence, R2 x is the predictive R-squared, and ρ is the "Stambaugh Correlation" (between innovations in the predictive system). When returns are n...
متن کاملStock Return Predictability in a Monetary Economy
In an economy where agents hold money, the short interest rate determines the trade-off between money holdings and consumption. Building on this idea, we develop a theoretical model that shows the transmission mechanism through which the short rate finds its way to stock-return predictability regressions. We construct a cointegration relation that links share prices and dividends to the short i...
متن کاملInternational Stock Return Predictability under Model Uncertainty
This paper examines return predictability when the investor is uncertain about the right state variables. A novel feature of the model averaging approach used in this paper is to account for finite-sample bias of the coefficients in the predictive regressions. Drawing on an extensive international dataset, we find that interest-rate related variables are usually among the most prominent predict...
