This study examines seven variables for Global Tactical Sector Allocation (GTSA) purposes. We construct 10 global sector indices over the extended sample period from 1970 to 2008. This enables us to test previously documented variables on a global basis and to examine whether they continued to...

We examine 24 global factor premiums across the main asset classes via replication and new-sample evidence spanning 217 years of data. Replication yields ambiguous evidence within a unified testing framework with methods that account for p-hacking. The new-sample evidence reveals that the large...

We examine asset class and factor premiums across inflationary regimes. As periods of high inflation and deflation are relatively uncommon in recent history, we use a deep sample starting in 1875. Moderate inflation scenarios provide the highest returns across asset class and factor premiums....
