    Abstract : This research paper tests the traditional market based pricing models and their ability to explain the return on portfolios constructed on cyclicality basis in the Eurozone region. The paper goes beyond the domestic market portfolios (indices) regularly used for asset pricing to the more regional or international approach of asset pricing through using regional market portfolios as a predictor factor as a potential indicator of the Eurozone economic integration level.

  3. 3. The search for alpha continues. Estimating time-varying risk premia of hedge funds with a conditional model.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Henrik Dyrssen; Jakob Gloner; [2011]
    Keywords : Abnormal Returns; Conditional Model; Hedge Funds; Principal Components; PUT Write Index; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Numerous past studies investigating the performance of hedge funds suffer from two distinct problems: unreliable and biased return data inherent in virtually all databases and the use of static asset-pricing models. Using “indexes of indexes” for our hedge fund returns, both free of biases and highly representative, we investigate which risk factors investors are exposed to and whether hedge fund managers are able to consistently yield abnormal returns during the period February 1997 to January 2011.

  4. 4. Cross-Section of Stock Returns: : Conditional vs. Unconditional and Single Factor vs. Multifactor Models

    University essay from Handelshögskolan vid Umeå universitet

    Author : Rustam Vosilov; Nicklas Bergström; [2010]
    Keywords : Cross-section of stock returns; asset-pricing model empirical tests; CAPM; Fama-French; conditional asset-pricing models; time-varying beta; time-varying risk; conditional beta; cross-sectional regression; time series regression; financial market anomalies; value premium; size premium; momentum effect;

    Abstract : The cross-sectional variation of stock returns used to be described by the Capital Asset Pricing Model until the early 90‟s. Anomalies, such as, book-to-market effect and small firm effect undermined CAPM‟s ability to explain stock returns and Fama & French (1992) have shown that simple firm attributes, like, firm size and book-to-market value can explain the returns far better than Beta.
