18. Factor return predictability: A comparison of multivariate forecasts of the Size, Value, Momentum, and Low Volatility premia
D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomiSammanfattning : This paper studies the predictive performance of multivariate models in forecasting joint returns of portfolios tracking the Size, Value, Momentum, and Low Volatility premia. We run recursive out-of-sample forecasting experiments on a number of linear and regime switching models, and compare the accuracy of their point predictions in a qualitative and quantitative fashion.

19. Risk Attitudes and the Equity Premium Puzzle: empirical tests in a cross-country setting
D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomiSammanfattning : This study utilises panel data, Equity Home Bias measurements and a two-stage estimation process incorporating one version of the international CAPM to extract comparable input data and test country-scores for risk preferences, risk aversion and time discounting as well as country scores on broader cultural dimensions, on country-estimates of the Equity Risk Premia. The risk attitude scores, which just recently have been made available, are such that they may proxy for irrational behaviours which have been theorized to explain the Equity Premium Puzzle, and enable a rigorous way to empirically test such an effect.

For this purpose the VIX Index and US Treasury bills are used to recover the VIX dynamics and the short rate dynamics under the real world probability measure. LÄS MER
