  • Characterizing S&P 500 Index Bear Market Rallies
    Available evidence suggests that S&P 500 Index bear markets and bear market rallies are idiosyncratic, but 10% (or somewhat bigger) bear market rallies are not unusual.
  • COVID-19 and U.S. Stock Returns
    Evidence suggests that the COVID-19 health crisis morphed into an economic crisis due to both expectation of lower firm cash flows and a higher discount rate (investor risk aversion).
  • Best Equity Risk Premium
    Evidence indicates that formal asset valuation models (extrapolations of historical return data) provide the most (least) predictive estimates of the future equity risk premium.
  • Simple Volatility Harvesting?
    Evidence suggests that a simple stop-gain rule (but not a comparable stop-loss rule) may have marginal value when applied to the broad U.S. stock market.
