Generalized quantile regressions, including the conditional quantiles and expectiles as special cases, are useful alternatives to the conditional means for characterizing a conditional distribution, especially when the interest lies in the tails. We develop a functional data analysis approach to...

A recent book by Kolari, Liu, and Huang (KLH) (2021) developed a new theoretical capital asset pricing model dubbed the ZCAPM, which outperformed well-known multifactor models in cross-sectional tests using U.S. stocks. This paper extends their analyses by employing a longer sample period from...

In a recent book, Kolari et al. developed a new theoretical capital asset pricing model dubbed the ZCAPM. Based on out-of-sample cross-sectional tests using U.S. stocks, the ZCAPM consistently outperformed well-known multifactor models popular in the finance literature. This paper presents...

Kolari, Liu, and Huang (2021) recently proposed and empirically tested a new asset pricing model dubbed the ZCAPM that consistently outperformed popular multifactor models using U.S. stock returns. Is the ZCAPM a false discovery? As verification, this paper provides international stock return...
