1 Drawing Inferences from Statistics Based on Multiyear Asset Returns Matthew Richardson ames H. Stock FE
2 Motivation Fama and French (1988, Poterba and Summer (1988 document significant negative correlations in multi-year stock returns, using conventional asymptotic theory to asses the degree of statistic significance
3 Motivation How powerful is the classical asymptotic theory for data that has a lot of overlapping observations, so that there is not a lot of independent information in multi-year statistics? 3
4 Novel Approach Conventionally, the overlap in multiyear data is treated as fixed, so that as the time span increases, the ratio of the overlap to the sample size approaches zero. 4
5 Novel Approach Richardson and Stock propose that the overlap grows with the time span, so that as sample size increases, the ratio of the overlap to the sample size approaches fixed constant / T δ 5
6 Variance Ratio Statistics Poterba and Summers (1988 use Variance Ratios to search for mean reversion in stock returns. For a two-period return: VR ( = = var( ~ r ~ t + rt 1 var( ~ rt var( r~ t + cov( var( ~ r t ~ r, r~ t 1 6
7 Variance Ratio Statistics Return generating process rt = µ + ε t where E( εt / εt 1, εt,..., ε1 = 0 h t = E( εt / εt 1, ε t,..., ε1 E{( 1 / T σ T t = 1 h t 7
8 Variance Ratio Statistics Variance Ratios are considered: I r ( (1 with non-overlapping data ( with overlapping data Μ r ( 8

10 Variance Ratio Statistics Μ r ( = 1 T T t= ( x t σˆ ( r µ ˆ 10
11 Variance Ratio Statistics Under the asymptotic fixed assumption, assuming i.i.d normal stock returns: T T ( I r ( Μ ( r 1 ( 1 d d N (0,( 1 ( 1( N (0,
12 Variance Ratio Statistics Under the is not consistent assumption: has a nondegenerate limiting distribution that is non-normal variance of / T I δ d r ( 1/ δ x t ( δχ tends to infinity 1
13 Variance Ratio Statistics Under the / T δ assumption: Μ r ( d 1 δ 1 δ Y δ ( λ dλ where Y and W(. δ ( λ = W ( λ W ( λ δ δw (1 is the standard Brownian motion Μ r ( has a non-normal limiting distribution variance of 13
14 Multiyear Autocorrelation Statistics Fama and French (1989 examine the autocorrelation of multiyear returns using: x ( = α( + β( x ( + ε ( t + t t+ 14
15 Multiyear Autocorrelation Statistics Under the fixed assumption, the distribution of β ˆ( is approximated by a normal with a variance that increases with. ˆ Under the / T δ assumption, β ( has the same distribution as a functional of a Brownian motion 15
16 Multiyear Autocorrelation Statistics To test the hypothesis that several multiyear correlations simultaneously equal zero, an F-test is used. Under the / T δ assumption, F does not have the usual chi-square distribution The distribution of F can be evaluated numerically 16
17 Multiyear Autocorrelation Statistics To test whether whether the sum of the individual multiyear correlations are zero, the following statistic is computed: where K r t = ˆβ ( i i= 1 K * r T β δ i i = 1 with * β δ i being the limiting statistic of βˆ ( 17
18 Monte Carlo Evidence The asymptotic critical values of the statistics proposed can be obtained using Monte Carlo simulations The Monte Carlo results converge quickly with T; the / T δ asymptotic distribution is good even for small T The results from the fixed approximations differ substantially from the Monte Carlo results 18
19 Monte Carlo Evidence For the F-test of zero multi-year correlations, the Monte Carlo critical values differ substantially from the conventional chi-square distribution, the latter rejecting the null to often For the test of the sum of the multiyear correlations, the / T δ approximation is better than the fixed approximation 19
20 Fama and French (1988 re-examined The estimates of the autocorrelations of multiyear returns from Fama and French are consistent with mean reversion in stock returns This is not confirmed here; only 3 out of 96 point estimates reject the null of no autocorrelation (Fama and French find 19 significant point estimates The hypothesis that the sum of the point estimates is zero cannot be rejected either 0
21 Poterba and Summers (1988 re-examined The evidence using the / T approximations is mixed. δ The average of the point estimates of the variance ratios are consistent with mean reversion (10% level The F-statistic reject the null of no autocorrelation only for cases out of 8 1
22 Conclusion The / T δ approximation provide a substantial improvement of the standard fixed approximations The evidence in favor of mean reversion in stock returns is a lot less strong when the / T δ approximations are used to compute limiting distributions
