The present study investigates the possible existence of a systematic relation between beta and excess-return for … portfolios of Turkish equities. In the process, no systematic relation is found between beta and realized portfolio excessreturn …-return and beta, conditioned upon the sign of realized market-portfolio excess-return. Moreover, an even stronger systematic …

We argue that the empirical evidence against the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) based on stock returns does not … returns on stocks need not satisfy the CAPM even when expected returns of projects do. We provide empirical support for our … arguments by developing a method for estimating firms' project CAPM betas and project returns. Our findings justify the …

In this paper, we present a novel method to extract the risk-neutral probability of default of a firm from American put option prices. Building on the idea of a default corridor proposed in Carr and Wu (2011), we derive a parsimonious closed-form formula for American put option prices from which...

This paper finds that Government of Canada benchmark bonds tend to be more illiquid over the subsequent month when there is a large increase in government debt supply. The result is both statistically and economically significant, stronger for the long-term than the short-term sector, and is...

During and after the Great Recession of 2008-09, conventional monetary policy in the United States and many other advanced economies was constrained by the effective lower bound (ELB) on nominal interest rates. Several central banks implemented large-scale asset purchase (LSAP) programs, more...

Using the prices of crude oil futures contracts, we construct the term structure of crude oil convenience yields out to one-year maturity. The crude oil convenience yield can be interpreted as the interest rate, denominated in barrels of oil, for borrowing a single barrel of oil, and it measures...

Expected returns and risk assessment are important issues when evaluating capital investment projects. We use VARX-MGARCH models and asset pricing theory to model the expected rate of return in Brazil, Colombia, Mexico and Peru for late 2006. The main objective of this paper is to present an...

. Such prices determine intrinsic returns that satisfy the CAPM equation. This paper shows that assets that pay a constant … cumulative returns. These returns depend not only on beta but also on the probability of survival and the growth rate. The … derived equations explain the beta, size and value effects previously documented by several authors. Surprisingly, the RVT …
