A Critique of Stochastic Discount Factor Methodology
The stochastic discount factor (SDF) methodology is becoming quite popular in recent empirical asset pricing studies. It appears that this new methodology, as claimed, is going to replace traditional methodologies. In this paper, we point out that, because the current practice of the stochastic discount factor methodology ignores a fully specified model for asset returns, it suffers from two po...
متن کاملSpanning and Intersection: A Stochastic Dominance Approach
We propose linear programming tests for spanning and intersection based on stochastic dominance rather than mean-variance analysis. An empirical application investigates the diversification benefits to US investors from emerging equity markets. 5001-6182 Business 4001-4280.7 Finance Management, Business Finance, Corporation Finance Library of Congress Classification (LCC) HG 1576+ Statistics Ba...
متن کاملStochastic Discount Factor Bounds with Conditioning Information
Hansen and Jagannathan (HJ, 1991) describe restrictions on the volatility of stochastic discount factors (SDFs) that price a given set of asset returns. This paper compares the sampling properties of different versions of HJ bounds that use conditioning information in the form of a given set of lagged instruments. HJ describe one way to use conditioning information. Their approach is to multipl...
متن کاملA Stochastic Dominance Approach to Spanning
We develop a Stochastic Dominance methodology to analyze if new assets expand the investment possibilities for rational nonsatiable and risk-averse investors. This methodology avoids the simplifying assumptions underlying the traditional mean-variance approach to spanning. The methodology is applied to analyze the stock market behavior of small firms in the month of January. Our findings sugges...
متن کاملPrice Discount and Stochastic Initial Inventory in the Newsboy Problem
Many extension of the newsboy problem have been solved in the literature. One of those extensions solves a newsboy problem with stochastic initial inventory, earlier extensions have focused on quantity discounts offered by suppliers. An important practical extension would address a combination of the two pervious extensions. In this paper we consider a newsboy problem in which the suppliers off...
