The Time-varying Risk-Return Tradeoff in the Long-Run
نویسنده
چکیده
Lundblad(2007,JFE) shows that the risk-return tradeoff is unequivocally positive with a two-century history of equity market data. A further examination of the relation with the UK monthly stock returns from 1836 to 2010 produces rather weak risk-return relation. I show that the risk-return relation is mostly positive but varies considerably over time based on a new nonlinear ICAPM with multivariate GARCH-M terms with the time-varying risk-return tradeoffs and hedging coefficients. The often observed negative risk-return relation is also statistically insignificant with the 95% confidence bounds. The hedging coefficients also vary significantly across time. This complex nonlinearity seems to be the main culprit of the weak risk-return relation.

The Risk Return Tradeoff in the Long-Run: 1836-2003
Previous studies typically find a statistically insignificant relationship between the market risk premium and its expected volatility. Further, several of these studies estimate a negative risk return tradeoff contrary to the predictions of mainstream theory. Using simulations, I demonstrate that even 100 years of data constitute a small sample that may easily lead to this finding even though ...
متن کاملDoes an intertemporal tradeoff between risk and return explain mean reversion in stock prices?
When volatility feedback is taken into account, there is strong evidence of a positive tradeoff between stock market volatility and expected returns on a market portfolio. In this paper, we ask whether this intertemporal tradeoff between risk and return is responsible for the reported evidence of mean reversion in stock prices. There are two relevant findings. First, price movements not related...

Although the practical importance of investment analysis in long-term energy investments is well understood, choosing the proper method has always been a dilemma. In this regard, classic evaluation methods, with a history of almost a century, are mostly favored, but using them in the valuation of long-lasting energy projects has particular shortcomings, nevertheless. The drawbacks mainly stem f...
متن کاملDemand for International Reserves in Islamic Countries and Determining the Optimal Composition
In this paper, based on error correction model by using panel data, an empirical analysis of demand for international reserves for 16 Islamic countries is investigated. Besides addressing conventional issues, the model explicitly incorporates the impact of expected export revenues and the impact of the exchange rate system on reserve demand. The results reveal that, short run money market diseq...
متن کاملInvestigating the Intertemporal Risk-Return Relation in International Stock Markets with the Component GARCH Model
We revisit the risk-return relation using the component GARCH model and international daily MSCI stock market data. In contrast with the previous evidence obtained from weekly and monthly data, daily data show that the relation is positive in almost all markets and often statistically significant. Likelihood ratio tests reject the standard GARCH model in favor of the component GARCH model, whic...
