The horizon effect in the long-run predictive relationship between market excess return and historical market variance is investigated. To this end, the asymptotic multivariate distribution of the term structure of risk-return trade-offs is derived, accounting for short- and long-memory in the...

We provide a multi-horizon characterization of the strength of the relationship between market realized variance components, namely continuous volatility and jump, and future market excess return. Building on quadratic variation theory, we find that continuous volatility is a key driver of...
