View Bias towards Ambiguity, Expectile

CAPM and the Anomalies

Wei Hu, ZhenLong Zheng

Campbell (2000), Asset Pricing at the Millennium

Theorists develop models with testable predictions; empirical researchers document “puzzles” –stylised facts that fail to fit established theories –and this stimulates the development of new theories. Such a process is part of the normal development of any science.

VLSComparison VLS vs.OLS VLS vs. WLS VLS vs.Quantile regression


We establish the VLS methodology by listing all the assumptions, finding new estimators, and proving the asymptotic consistency and normality in large sample analysis. We develop the hypothesis testing by the case of conditional homoskedadticity and heteroskedasticty. We estimate and test the expectile based unconditional CAPM theory through the conditional GMM being restricted by a view bias based linear condition.

Contributions

We define the expectile and variacile We revise the expectation utility

maximization axiom into an expectile utility maximization axiom.

We redo Merton Problem under the expectile framework, and extend the CAPM theory.

we develope a new econometrics methodology, the view bias adjusted least square (VLS) to test the extended CAPM theory.

26

Contributions

we demonstrate the advantage of the expectile based asset pricing theory through empirical application.

Our approach solves the two categories of anomalies within one integrated and extended asset pricing theoretical framework.

The advantage of our approach is that not only does the expectile take the merits of quantile, but also the expectile based asset pricing framework takes the merits of expectation framework.
