Abstract

En 中文
In this paper, we define dynamic and static factors and distinguish between the dynamic and static structure of asset excess returns. We examine the value-weighted market portfolio as a dynamic factor and propose an intuitively appealing procedure to search for more dynamic factors. We find evidence that the market is a dynamic factor but a three-dynamic-factor model is superior in modelling the decile portfolios. The two additional factors are correlated with a January dummy and Bond risk premium and with production growth and a recession dummy, respectively. We found that small firms are more sensitive to the January/Bond risk factor, while large firms are more sensitive to the Production/Recession factor. We found that after accounting for the systematic risk corresponding to the three dynamic factors, there is not much of a static component of asset risk premium and there is no evidence for a higher 'unexplained' return on small firm portfolios.
