  2. On asset pricing and market efficiency... It is the theory that decides what can be observed. Albert Einstein

  3. The traditional capital asset pricing model (CAPM) • Perfect financial markets • Frictionless markets • Rational investors have equal access to costless information and market prices • Homogeneous expectations • Everyone can borrow and lend at the riskless rate of interest RF

  4. The CAPM capital market line

  5. The CAPM security market line Expected return E[Ri] Systematic risk (beta bi)

  6. The International Asset Pricing Model (IAPM) In addition to the CAPM assumptions, suppose • Investors in each country have the same consumption basket • Purchasing power parity holds This leads to an international version of the CAPM • The market portfolio includes all assets in the world weighted according to their market values • Investors also hold a hedge portfolio of domestic and foreign bonds • as a store of value (that is, as a riskfree asset) • to hedge the currency risk of the market portfolio

  7. Integrated vs segmented capital markets • Integrated financial markets There are no barriers to financial flows and purchasing power parity holds across equivalent assets wherever they are traded. • Segmented financial markets Prices are set independently in each national market. Real-world financial markets fall somewhere between these two extremes.

  8. Roll’s critique of the CAPM • If performance is measured relative to an ex post efficient index, then all securities will lie along the security market line. • If performance is measured relative to an ex post inefficient index, then any ranking of portfolio performance is possible depending on the inefficient index chosen.

  9. Roll’s critique of the CAPM • Because of home asset bias, investors do not hold the world market portfolio. • Consequently, market beta may be of little use in measuring risk in a globally diversified portfolio.

  10. Arbitrage pricing theory (APT) Rj = mj + b1jF1 + ... + bKjFK + ej(23.5) where Rj = the random rate of return on asset j mj = the mean or expected return on asset j bkj = the sensitivity of asset j to factor k where k=1,...,K Fk = systematic risk factor k ej = a random error term

  11. The one-factor market model • One-factor market model Rj = aj + bjRM + ej(23.6) Subtracting asset j’s mean return mj = aj + bjmM from both sides of (23.6) yields a one-factor market model in excess return form. Rj = mj + bjFM + ej(23.7) where FM = (RM - mM)

  12. Beta as a regression coefficient Rj = aj + bjRM + ejÛ Rj - mj = bj FM + ej where FM = RM-mM

  13. The relative importance of industry, national and international factors Rj = mM + bCjFCj + bIjFIj + ej(23.9) where Rj = local currency excess return to stock j mM = return to the global market factor FCj = return to stock j’s country factor and FIj = return to stock j’s industry factor Beckers, Connor and Curds, “National versus Global Influences on Equity Returns,” Financial Analysts Journal 52, March/April 1996.

  14. The relative importance of industry, national and international factors Average EP (explanatory power) statistics • Global and national stock market factors play important roles in explaining stock return variability. • The exposure of stocks to industry factors is low.

  15. Exposure to currency risk

  16. The diversifiability of currency risk exposure

  17. APT factors • Chen, Roll and Ross identify five APT factors:* Rj = mj + b1jF1 + b2jF2 + b3jF3 + b4jF4 + b5jF5 +ej Fj: industrial production F2: risk premia (corporate - government bond yield) F3: term premia (long-term government - T-bill yield) F4: expected inflation F5: unexpected inflation • When the market return is included as a sixth factor, its coefficient is not significant. * Nai-Fu Chen, Richard Roll, and Stephen A. Ross, “Economic Forces and the Stock Market,” Journal of Business, July 1986.

  18. Does currency risk matter in U.S. markets? • Jorion added a currency risk factor to the one-factor market model and the five-factor model of Chen, Roll and Ross?* Rjd = mjd + b1j (RMd-mMd) + b2jf sd/f + ejd(23.13) Rjd = mjd + b1jF1d + b2jF12d + ... + b5jF5d + b6jfsd/f + ejd(23.14) • In actively traded U.S. markets, the currency risk factor is subsumed into the other factors. • Nevertheless, there is considerable cross-sectional variation among U.S.-based MNCs. * Philippe Jorion, “The Pricing of Exchange Rate Risk in the Stock Market,” Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, September 1991.

  19. Does currency risk matter in non-U.S. markets? • De Santis and Gérard estimated a conditional version of a two-factor (market and currency risk) model.* • Conditional asset pricing models allow risks (ie., currency and market risks) to vary over time. • Different national markets had different exposures to currency risks. • Currency risk was a small fraction of total risk in the United States • Currency risk was a significant percentage of total risk in Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom * Giorgio De Santis and Bruno Gérard, “How Big is the Premium for Currency Risk,” Journal of Financial Economics 49, September 1998.

  20. The value premium and the size effect • Fama and French fit a three-factor model:* Rj = mj + bj (RM - mM) + bZj FSize + bDj FDistress + ej • Market factor(RM-mM) = excess return on the market • Firm sizeFSize= the difference in mean return between the smallest 10% and the largest 10% of firms. • Relative financial distressFDistress= the difference in mean return between value stocks (high equity book-to-market ratios) and growth stocks (low equity book-to-market ratios) * Eugene F. Fama and Kenneth R. French, “The Cross-Section of Expected Stock Returns,” Journal of Finance, June 1992.

  21. The value premium and the size effect • Firm size: Small firms outperformed large firms by an average of 7 percent per year. • Relative financial distress: Value stocks (high equity book-to-market stocks) outperformed growth stocks by an average of 12 percent per year. • After controlling for size and relative financial distress, the market factor contributed nothing to the explanatory power of the regression. * Eugene F. Fama and Kenneth R. French, “The Cross-Section of Expected Stock Returns,” Journal of Finance, June 1992.

  22. The value premium in U.S. stocks Annualized return Portfolios ranked on book-to-market equity High Low

  23. The international value premium • Fama and French then extended their study to international stocks:* • Value (low MV/BV) stocks have higher mean returns than growth (high MV/BV) stocks in 12 of 13 international markets. • The difference in mean return is 7.60% per year. * Eugene F. Fama and Kenneth R. French, “Value versus Growth: The International Evidence,” Journal of Finance 53 (December 1998).

  24. The international value premium The Difference in Annual Dollar Returns in Excess of the U.S. T-Bill Rate for Value and Growth Stock Portfolios

  25. Momentum strategies • Momentum (or relative strength) strategies selectively buy or sell securities based on their recent price performance. • Jegadeesh and Titman categorized stocks into ten equal-sized portfolios according to return over the preceding six months.* • Winners are stocks with the highest six-month returns • Losers are stocks with the highest six-month returns * Narasimhan Jegadeesh and Sheridan Titman, “Returns to Buying Winners and Selling Losers: Implications for Stock Market Efficiency,” Journal of Finance, March 1993.

  26. Momentum in U.S. stocks

  27. Momentum in international stocks • Rouwenhorst examined momentum in 12 European stock markets:* • Past Winnersoutperformed Losers by more than 1 percent per month after correcting for risk. • Return continuation lasts for about one year, and then is partially reversed. * K. Geert Rouwenhorst, “International Momentum Strategies,” Journal of Finance, February 1998.

  28. Momentum in international stocks(monthly returns to Winner-minus-Loser portfolios)

  29. International momentum(cumulative returns to Winner-minus-Loser portfolios)

  30. Momentum in international stocks(average monthly returns to Winner-minus-Loser portfolios) 1.5% 1.0% 0.5% 0.0% Italy Spain France Austria Norway Belgium Sweden Kingdom United Denmark Germany Switzerland Netherlands
