Agenda
CAPM Roots Our Multi-factor Model Our Trading Strategy Our Results Next Steps

Is the CAPM Dead?
The CAPM’s beta does not work well for all securities– Fama and French found 3 factors described
asset returns better than the basic CAPM

An Intuitive Multi-Factor Model
We chose the following risk factors:– CAPM market risk premium– The square of the market risk premium– US dollar returns– GS Commodity Index returns– US long-term govt. bond returns– Change in the term structure

Estimating a Better Pricing Model
Dow Jones Industrial: 30 large cap, liquid stocks
In-sample: daily returns 1/1/94-12/31/02 Out-of-sample: 1/1/03-1/31/04 Linear regression for in-sample period
– R-squared range from 3% (BS) to 52% (GE)– Significant t-stats – Residuals show negative autocorrelation

Screens
Rank residual factors (or expected variance) in ascending order, rebalancing weekly– Ten lowest form Portfolio 1 (long)– Ten highest form Portfolio 3 (short)
Screen 1: sum of last 5 days residuals Screen 2: sum of last 30 days residuals Screen 3: 5 day moving avg – 30 day moving avg Screen 4: 5 day moving avg – 10 day moving avg Screen 5: expected variance (GARCH) Screen 6: change in expected variance
![Page 7: A Multi-Factor Residual-Based Trading Strategy Finance 453 Adrian Helfert Terry Moore Kevin Stoll Ben Thomason February 26, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081811/56649ed35503460f94be2a23/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Screens 1 & 2: Sum Previous Residuals
Low residuals signal underperformance to risk factors– Stock will “catch up” when investors digest news
High residuals signal outperformance to risk factors– Stock should correct downward
Negative autocorrelations in our residuals support this theory
![Page 8: A Multi-Factor Residual-Based Trading Strategy Finance 453 Adrian Helfert Terry Moore Kevin Stoll Ben Thomason February 26, 2004.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081811/56649ed35503460f94be2a23/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Screens 3 & 4: Difference Between Moving
Averages of Previous Residuals Technical reversal
– Stocks tend to track longer term trend relative to the market
– Profit-taking may cause near-term underperformance
– Dip-buying may cause near-term outperformance

Screens 5 & 6: Expected Variance (GARCH)
Use residuals to estimate expected variances– Low variance stocks are rewarded by investors– High variance stocks are penalized by investors– Reductions in variance are positive– Increases in variance are negative

Next Steps
Test different stocks Estimate a rolling pricing model instead
of fixed historical time period Optimize scoring (weighting) instead of
subjective scoring Factor trading costs and slippage costs
explicitly into model Test a 2-day model instead of 5-day
because of autocorrelation results Test a technical crossover strategy
