Fama-French Model Case Study

Improved Essays
Register to read the introduction… This indicates that momentum and traded liquidity are not the omitted variables and not related to risk factors of mutual funds. Fama-French model cannot be improved though five-factor model.
Compared this three models, Fama-French model has highest adjusted R-square and lowest probability of F-statistic. Therefore, the most suitable model to capture the performance of mutual funds is Fama-French model. However, Fama-French model is not so good. Firstly, the β of ExRm and HML is insignificant, that is to say, the expect return of mutual funds is little related to market premium and stocks value. So it is meaningless to put ExRm and HML into the model. Secondly, the R-square of Fama-French model is low, maybe because the model omits some variables that highly explain the risk premium of mutual funds.

    Discuss whether Lauterborn’s model offers an effective alternative to the 4Ps, and evaluate the role of such models in modern marketing practice. With an increasingly complex business world, a growing global population and the development of new markets, businesses’ marketing activities are arguable one of the key factors to stay competitive. If one examine today’s immense marketing budgets of global firms (CMO Council 2014) together with the developing research and corporate tactics used to penetrate into consumer’s lives, there is no hesitance to argue that this is likely to continue throughout the capitalist west as well as in emerging markets.

    Understanding the cross-section of equity market returns has been one of the most researched topics in finance for many years. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), introduced by Sharpe (1964), Lintner (1965) and Black (1972), states that there is a linear relation between beta (systematic risk) and expected stock returns and that beta is sufficient to explain the variation in expected returns. The validity of the CAPM, however, has been questioned by many empirical studies which have provided evidence supporting the hypothesis that average stock returns are predictable in the cross-section. The predictive factors include firm size, book-to-market ratio, momentum, profitability growth, and capital expenditures.…
