Book Synopsis Average Correlation and Stock Market Returns by : Joshua Matthew Pollet
Download or read book Average Correlation and Stock Market Returns written by Joshua Matthew Pollet and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the Roll critique is important, changes in the variance of the stock market may be only weakly related to changes in aggregate risk and subsequent stock market excess returns. However, since individual stock returns share a common sensitivity to true market return shocks, higher aggregate risk can be revealed by higher correlation between stocks. In addition, a change in stock market variance that leaves aggregate risk unchanged can have a zero or even negative effect on the stock market risk premium. We show that the average correlation between daily stock returns predicts subsequent quarterly stock market excess returns. We also show that changes in stock market risk holding average correlation constant can be interpreted as changes in the average variance of individual stocks. Such changes have a negative relation with future stock market excess returns.
Book Synopsis Value, Size, Momentum and the Average Correlation of Stock Returns by : Christoph Becker
Download or read book Value, Size, Momentum and the Average Correlation of Stock Returns written by Christoph Becker and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic average correlations of stock returns are predicted by the volatility of the market excess return and moving average returns of value, size and momentum portfolios. While the influence of market volatility on average correlation is well-known, the role of value, size and momentum appears to be underappreciated. Correlations of stock returns and stock returns share sources of risk like the market volatility, but there are other sources that are distinct. In particular, correlations are increased when value or momentum returns are roughly zero, while strongly negative returns of value or momentum are associated with lower correlations. Using the market volatility and a moving average return of the value portfolio as predictors of average correlation, we obtain a global minimum variance portfolio with a Sharpe ratio that is 1.5% higher relative to the one based on a Dynamic Equicorrelation Garch model, and the difference in portfolio volatility is statistically significant.
Book Synopsis The Dynamic Correlation between Stock and Bond Returns by : Thomas Chinan Chiang
Download or read book The Dynamic Correlation between Stock and Bond Returns written by Thomas Chinan Chiang and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the correlation of returns between the U.S. stock and bond markets using two prominent index funds. By employing both rolling correlation and dynamic correlation coefficient models for the sample period from 1996 through 2008, we find that the correlation coefficients between stocks and bonds are time-varying and, on average, negative. The correlation coefficients between stock and bond markets depend on a few key macro state variables. The correlation coefficient is negatively correlated with the uncertainty of the stock market's performance but positively related to real income growth and the level of the federal funds rate.

Book Synopsis Strategic Asset Allocation by : John Y. Campbell
Download or read book Strategic Asset Allocation written by John Y. Campbell and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-01-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic finance has had a remarkable impact on many financial services. Yet long-term investors have received curiously little guidance from academic financial economists. Mean-variance analysis, developed almost fifty years ago, has provided a basic paradigm for portfolio choice. This approach usefully emphasizes the ability of diversification to reduce risk, but it ignores several critically important factors. Most notably, the analysis is static; it assumes that investors care only about risks to wealth one period ahead. However, many investors—-both individuals and institutions such as charitable foundations or universities—-seek to finance a stream of consumption over a long lifetime. In addition, mean-variance analysis treats financial wealth in isolation from income. Long-term investors typically receive a stream of income and use it, along with financial wealth, to support their consumption. At the theoretical level, it is well understood that the solution to a long-term portfolio choice problem can be very different from the solution to a short-term problem. Long-term investors care about intertemporal shocks to investment opportunities and labor income as well as shocks to wealth itself, and they may use financial assets to hedge their intertemporal risks. This should be important in practice because there is a great deal of empirical evidence that investment opportunities—-both interest rates and risk premia on bonds and stocks—-vary through time. Yet this insight has had little influence on investment practice because it is hard to solve for optimal portfolios in intertemporal models. This book seeks to develop the intertemporal approach into an empirical paradigm that can compete with the standard mean-variance analysis. The book shows that long-term inflation-indexed bonds are the riskless asset for long-term investors, it explains the conditions under which stocks are safer assets for long-term than for short-term investors, and it shows how labor income influences portfolio choice. These results shed new light on the rules of thumb used by financial planners. The book explains recent advances in both analytical and numerical methods, and shows how they can be used to understand the portfolio choice problems of long-term investors.

Book Synopsis Downside Correlation and Expected Stock Returns by : Andrew Ang
Download or read book Downside Correlation and Expected Stock Returns written by Andrew Ang and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If investors are more averse to the risk of losses on the downside than of gains on the upside, investors ought to demand greater compensation for holding stocks with greater downside risk. Downside correlations better capture the asymmetric nature of risk than downside betas, since conditional betas exhibit little asymmetry across falling and rising markets. We find that stocks with high downside correlations with the market, which are correlations over periods when excess market returns are below the mean, have high expected returns. Controlling for the market beta, the size effect, and the book-to-market effect, the expected return on a portfolio of stocks with the greatest downside correlations exceeds the expected return on a portfolio of stocks with the least downside correlations by 6.55% per annum. We find that part of the profitability of investing in momentum strategies can be explained as compensation for bearing high exposure to downside risk.

Book Synopsis Correlations in Emerging Market Bonds by : Mr.A. Javier Hamann
Download or read book Correlations in Emerging Market Bonds written by Mr.A. Javier Hamann and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the comovement in emerging market bond returns and disentangles the influence of external and domestic factors. The conceptual framework, set in the context of asset allocation, allows us to describe the channels through which shocks originating in a particular emerging or mature market are transmitted across countries and markets. We show that using a simple measure of cross-country correlations together with the commonly used average correlation coefficient can be more informative during episodes of heightened market instability. Data for the period 1997-2008 are analyzed for evidence of true contagion and common external shocks.
Book Synopsis Correlation Between Fundamental Values in the Financial Market by : Rui Liu
Download or read book Correlation Between Fundamental Values in the Financial Market written by Rui Liu and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the financial market, there are usually two methods of data analysis: the technical analysis and the fundamental analysis. In this thesis, we use the latter method and pay attention to the fundamental variables. In the stock market, there is a large amount of data and fundamental variables associated with it. In our approach, seven variables are selected and prove that no linear correlation exists between any two of them. Then, fundamental variable pairs are constructed from these fundamental variables and their visualization figures are built. From the results of the visualization figures, a statistical method is used to find the sub-areas with high frequency. With the help of these high frequency sub-areas, we observe all the visualization figures for every variable pair. Observations show that a sub-area in which the data samples always have a good or bad return from any variable pair can not be found. However, we can find sub-areas in which the return of stocks is better than the average return of all stocks. Based on these sub-areas, a set of rules is derived using the training data sets from 1993 to 1998. These rules are tested on the data set from 1999 to 2003. Most of the rules perform well because, except for rule 4 in year 2001, the average of returns of the rules are better than the average of returns of all stocks in S&P 500.
Book Synopsis Country and Industry Dynamics in Stock Returns by : Mr.Allan Timmermann
Download or read book Country and Industry Dynamics in Stock Returns written by Mr.Allan Timmermann and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perennial question in international finance is to what extent stock returns are influenced by country-location, as opposed to industry-affiliation, factors. This paper develops a novel methodology to measure these effects, in which portfolios mimicking "pure" country and industry factors are first constructed and their joint dynamics then modeled as regime-switching processes. Estimation using global firm-level data allows us to identify well-defined volatility states over the past thirty years and shows that the contribution of the industry factor becomes systematically more prominent during high global volatility states, while the country factor contribution declines. Using the model's estimates, we find that portfolio diversification possibilities vary considerably across economic states.

Book Synopsis Geopolitical Risk on Stock Returns: Evidence from Inter-Korea Geopolitics by : Seungho Jung
Download or read book Geopolitical Risk on Stock Returns: Evidence from Inter-Korea Geopolitics written by Seungho Jung and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate how corporate stock returns respond to geopolitical risk in the case of South Korea, which has experienced large and unpredictable geopolitical swings that originate from North Korea. To do so, a monthly index of geopolitical risk from North Korea (the GPRNK index) is constructed using automated keyword searches in South Korean media. The GPRNK index, designed to capture both upside and downside risk, corroborates that geopolitical risk sharply increases with the occurrence of nuclear tests, missile launches, or military confrontations, and decreases significantly around the times of summit meetings or multilateral talks. Using firm-level data, we find that heightened geopolitical risk reduces stock returns, and that the reductions in stock returns are greater especially for large firms, firms with a higher share of domestic investors, and for firms with a higher ratio of fixed assets to total assets. These results suggest that international portfolio diversification and investment irreversibility are important channels through which geopolitical risk affects stock returns.
