We propose testing asset-pricing models using multi-horizon returns (MHR). MHR effectively generate a new set of test assets that are endogenous to the model and that identify a broad set of possible conditional misspecifications. We apply MHR-based testing to prominent linear factor models and...

We propose testing asset-pricing models using multi-horizon returns (MHR). A correctly specified stochastic discount factor prices the cross-section of returns at all horizons. We show that MHR are informative about the model's conditional implications. Different from typical conditioning...

We decompose the returns of five well-known anomalies into cash flow and discount rate news. Common patterns emerge across the five factor portfolios and their mean-variance efficient (MVE) combination. Whereas discount rate news predominates in market returns, systematic cash flow news drives...
