  9. Background: • The evolution of academic finance. • Estimating expected return with the Asset Pricing Models of Modern Finance • CAPM: strong assumption -- strong prediction. • APT: weak assumption -- weak prediction.

  10. The Arbitrage Pricing Theory • Estimating the macro-economic betas.

  12. The Arbitrage Pricing Theory • Estimating the macro-economic betas. • No-arbitrage condition for asset pricing. • If risk-return relationship is non-linear, you can arbitrage.

  13. What Pays Off

  14. Probability Distribution For Returns to a Portfolio Probability Variance of Return Possible Rates of Returns Expected Return

  15. Risk Factor Models • The variance of stock returns can be split into two components: • Variance = systematic risk + diversifiable risk • Systematic risk is computed using the following spreadsheet.

  16. Portfolio Beta Portfolio Beta (Inflation) (Oil Price) Portfolio Beta Correlation Between 1.00 Inflation and Oil Price (Inflation) Portfolio Beta Correlation Between 1.00 (Oil Price) Inflation and Oil Price Spreadsheet for Computing Systematic Risk

  17. Risk Factor Models • Factor betas are estimated by relating stock returns to (unexpected) percentage changes in the factor over a period where the stock’s character is similar to the present.

  18. Return to G.E. 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% -15% -20% -25% -10% -5% 0% 5% 10% Percentage Change in Yield on Long-term Govt. Bond Relationship Between Return to General Electric and Changes in Interest Rates Line of Best Fit April, 1987

  20. Risk Factor Models • Factor correlations can be estimated over a longer period because they are, presumably, more stable over time. This may increase the predictive accuracy of factor models relative to more naïve historical estimates.

  21. Portfolio Beta * Portfolio Beta * 1.00 (Inflation) (Inflation) + Portfolio Beta * Portfolio Beta * Correlation Between (Oil Price) Inflation and Oil Price (Inflation) Portfolio Beta * Portfolio Beta * 1.00 + (Oil Price) (Oil Price) + Portfolio Beta * Portfolio Beta * Correlation Between Inflation and Oil Price (Oil Price) (Inflation) = Portfolio Systematic Risk Computing Portfolio Systematic Risk

  22. Risk Factor Models • If your factors have truly captured the structure behind the correlations between stock returns, then portfolio diversifiable risk can be estimated by summing the products of (a) the diversifiable risk of each stock and (b) the square of its portfolio weight.

  24. Expected Return Factor Models • The factors in an expected return model represent the character of the companies. They might include the history of their stock prices, its size, financial condition, cheapness or dearness of prices in the market, etc. • Factor payoffs are estimated by relating individual stock returns to individual stock characteristics over the cross-section of a stock population (here the largest 3000 U.S. stocks).

  26. Five Factor Families • Risk • Liquidity • Price level • Growth potential • Price history

  27. The Most Important Factors • The monthly slopes (payoffs) are averages over the period 1979 through mid 1986. “T” statistics on the averages are computed, and the stocks are ranked by the absolute values of the “Ts”.

  28. 1979/01 through 1986/07 through 1993/12 1986/06 Factor Mean Confidence Mean Confidence One-month excess return -0.97% 99% -0.72% 99% Twelve-month excess 0.52% 99% 0.52% 99% return Trading volume/market -0.35% 99% -0.20% 98% cap Two-month excess return -0.20% 99% -0.11% 99% Earnings to price 0.27% 99% 0.26% 99% Return on equity 0.24% 99% 0.13% 97% Book to price 0.35% 99% 0.39% 99% Trading volume trend -0.10% 99% -0.09% 99% Six-month excess return 0.24% 99% 0.19% 99% Cash flow to price 0.13% 99% 0.26% 99% Most Important Factors

  29. Projecting Expected Return • The components of expected return are obtained by multiplying the projected payoff to each factor (here the average of the past 12) by the stock’s current exposure to the factor. Exposures are measured in standard deviations from the cross-sectional mean. • The individual components are then summed to obtain the aggregate expected return for the next period (here a month)

  30. Factor Exposure Payoff Component Book\Price 1.5 S.D. x 20 B.P. = 30 B.P. Short-Term Reversal 1.0 S.D. x -10 B.P. = -10 B.P. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Trading Volume -2 S.D. x -20 B.P. = 40 B.P. Total Excess Return 80 B.P. Estimating Expected Stock Returns

  31. The Model’s Out-of-sample Predictive Power • The 3000 stocks are ranked by expected return and formed into deciles (decile 10 highest). • The performance of the deciles is observed in the next month. Then expected returns are re-estimated, and the deciles are re-ranked. • The process continues through 1993.

  34. Extension of Study to Other Periods(Nardin Baker) • The same family of factors is used on a similar stock population. • Years before and after initial study period are examined to determine slopes and spreads between decile 1 and 10.

  35. Slope and Spread 100% 90% difference slope 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 1975 1977 1979 1981 1983 1985 1987 1989 1991 1993 1995 1997 1998 Years

  36. Decile Risk Characteristics The characteristics reflect the character of the deciles over the period 1979-1993.

  37. Fama-French Three- Factor Model Monthly decile returns are regressed on monthly differences in the returns to the following: S&P 500 and T bills. The 30% of stocks that are smallest and largest. The 30% of stocks with highest book-to-price and the lowest.
