摘要
S C We find that aggregate profitability and asset investment exhibit robust joint predictive power for ag-gregate excess stock returns, consistent with the investment model of Hou, Xue, and Zhang (henceforth HXZ, 2015 ). These results provide out-of-sample empirical support for HXZ, as the same mechanisms that HXZ use to explain firm-specific variation in stock returns can also be used to explain variation that is market-wide in nature. Also consistent with the HXZ investment model, we find that the growth rate of short-term (long-term) assets exhibits a stronger predictive power for one-year-ahead (two-year-ahead) stock returns.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V.
