Part 1: Introduction

The basic Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) uses one risk “sensitivity” (beta) to one risk factor (the market risk premium) that may not be appropriately descriptive for all securities. Fama and French(1995) discovered that by adding two factors (HML and SMB), the model does a better job of explaining security returns. We start with the basic CAPM model and add five factors that we believe affect large U.S. companies.

In order to effectively implement a potential trading strategy, we chose to sample the highly liquid stocks in the Dow Jones Composite Index (Dow 30). We use the residuals from our model to construct a variety of screens and sort the stocks in three portfolios. Our model was estimated on a daily basis and generated daily residuals. The portfolios are rebalanced weekly. After running screens on included factors, we score each screen’s portfolios and re-sort based on the score.

Part 2: Hypothesis

We hypothesize that the expected return of an asset can be more appropriately described by the following revised asset pricing model:

Ra – rf = α + β1(Rm – rf ) + β2((Rm – rf )2) + β3(USD Returns) + β4(GS Commodity Returns) + β5(LT Bond Return) + β6(Interest Rate Slope Δ) + ε

This model is an extension of the CAPM and allows the regression to place risk sensitivities (betas) on our suggested risk factors. The risk factors were chosen based on their relevance to large capitalization stocks in the Dow 30. The results of the regressions are in Appendix A.

• β1(Rm – rf ): This is the basic risk weighting from CAPM in response to movements in the market risk premium.

• β2((Rm – rf )2): The square of the return of the market return over the risk free rate is a major factor in the model that serves as a proxy for the skew of the returns against the market. This factor heavily weights large market returns, both positive and negative. The sign of the coefficient will determine the expected effect on the security’s returns. A positive coefficient indicates the stock will outperform during big up and down moves in the market (a highly desirable feature).

• β3(USD Returns): Changes in exchange rates may affect the variability of returns for large multinational companies (such as the Dow 30 constituents) that repatriate income to the U.S.

• β4(GS Commodity Returns): We include the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI) returns in order to capture the risk to these equities from the variability in commodity prices. Many of these large companies will be dependent on commodities as inputs for their own goods and, in the case of oil companies, their revenues are driven directly from the commodity prices.

• β5 (LT Bond Returns): The Lehman U.S. Long Term Treasury Index return is used as a proxy because of both the potential sensitivity of the companies’ debt and the equity market sensitivity to interest rates. Bond returns also represent a large portion of investor portfolios and should be considered when determining “market” risk.

• β6(Interest Rate Slope Δ): For constructing the sensitivity to the interest rate slope change, we first subtracted the 3-month U.S. Treasury Bill yield from the 20-year U.S. Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) yield and then took the change from the previous day. Previous studies have shown that the slope of the yield curve is a useful predictor of the business cycle. This should prove a significant risk factor for large cap companies as they likely have exposure to both the long and short end of the risk curve given their exposure to various types of debt.

Part 3: Data Selection, Sources, and Rationale

In selecting an asset class for this study, we wanted to choose a family of securities that were widely traded (i.e. highly liquid) and constrained in scope of sheer size. For these reasons we choose the Dow Jones Composite Index. From the in-sample study period of 1994-2002, there were 30 securities in the Dow at the beginning of the period. We tracked these specific stocks throughout the study to avoid survivorship bias.

The stocks were Alcoa (AA), Allied Signal (ALD), American Express (AXP), Boeing (BA), Bethlehem Steel (BS), Caterpillar (CAT), Chevron (CHV), Du Pont (DD), Disney (DIS), Eastman Kodak (EK), General Electric (GE), General Motors (GM), Goodyear (GT), IBM, International Paper (IP), JP Morgan (JPM), Coca Cola (KO), McDonalds (MCD), 3M (MMM), Altria (MO), Merck (MRK), Proctor & Gamble (PG), Sears (S), AT&T (T), Texaco (TX), Union Carbide (UK), United Technologies (UTX), Westinghouse Electric (WX), Exxon (XON), and Woolworth (Z).

We used the Center for Research in Securities Prices (CRSP) as the data source for Dow returns and total market returns, for which we used the combined NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX components. We choose to use the combined returns from these three exchanges as we believe it is a better measure of the total returns to the stock market than just using one index, such as the S&P 500, which would be biased to large cap company returns.

We used Datastream to collect data for the GSCI returns, USD returns, and the Lehman U.S. Long Term Treasury Index returns.

We used the Federal Reserve website, , to obtain daily observations of the 3-month U.S. T-bill yield and 20-year CMT yield.

For our out-of-sample analysis (January 2003 – January 2004) we used return data from Yahoo! Finance. Due to data limitations, we used the S&P 500 as the market return during the out-of-sample period.

Part 4: Residual Diagnostics

We looked at the residuals in several different ways to determine the ability of our screening model to accurately predict returns.

The serial correlation tells how a lagged variable correlates to the value of the variable itself. In this scenario, a positive indication of the predictive value of the model would be the observance of significant negative autocorrelation of the residuals in the lagged periods. This would indicate that after a positive movement, the return is essentially mean reverting back to the model prediction, and so the return is reduced.

We calculated the residual autocorrelations for the Dow components (See Appendix B). Our results indicate that in the first five periods, there is significant negative autocorrelation between the residuals and the actual returns. It is interesting that the 2 day time lag reveals the most extreme results with 90% negative autocorrelations and 47% of those falling outside of a 95% confidence interval.

Part 5: Analysis

-Steps

Once we decided on a specific model, the data, and data sources to be used, we followed a specific flow in our analysis:

1. Regress each asset with our pricing model variables

2. Perform diagnostics on the residuals

3. Use the residuals to perform screens

4. Score each screen

5. Screen based on total score

6. Evaluate the trading strategies

-Screens

We ran a total of six screens, three of which we ultimately used in the scoring process. Three were discarded due to relative underperformance.

The first screen ranks, in ascending order, the sum of residual errors over the previous five days. We hypothesize that a large negative error is associated with that stock’s relative underperformance based on its exposure to our selected risk factors and will result in subsequent outperformance as it “catches up” to its appropriate return. The opposite is true for the large positive errors. Negative autocorrelations in our residuals support this theory. Thus, the first portfolio consists of past underperformers that will outperform in the future and the third portfolio consists of the opposite. A long-short strategy would entail purchasing the first portfolio and shorting the third portfolio in each period, and this would have resulted in an annualized return of 22.2% in a value weighted portfolio.

The second screen ranks, in ascending order, the sum of residual errors over the previous thirty days. The results were similar to the first screen, but not quite as good, and thus discarded.

The third screen ranks, in ascending order, the difference between the five day moving average of residual errors and the thirty day moving average of residual errors. This is used as a technical reversal in that we expect a stock’s recent 5-day performance to track its longer term 30-day performance. Stocks with 5 day moving averages lower than 30 day moving averages have underperformed their recent trend, and will therefore be expected to “catch up” with higher returns in the future. For this screen we assigned a score of +3 for Portfolio 1 and -3 for Portfolio 3.

The fourth screen ranks, in ascending order, the difference between the five day moving average of residuals and the ten day moving average of residuals. The results were similar to the third screen, but not quite as good, and thus discarded.

The fifth screen ranks, in ascending order, the expected variance for each stock forecasted using the GARCH model. We used the residuals to estimate expected conditional variance. We hypothesize that a low expected variance is rewarded by investors and the security will outperform. The opposite is true for high expected variances. The screen performed well and we assigned scores of +3 for Portfolio 1 and -2 for Portfolio 3.

The sixth screen ranks, in ascending order, changes in expected variance for each stock forecasted using the GARCH model. We hypothesize that small changes in expected variance are rewarded by investors. However, the screen performs poorly and, thus, is discarded.

The following table depicts the long-short portfolio returns and alphas for each of the six screens. See Appendix C for a detailed overview of the screening statistics.

The following table summarizes the scores that we assigned to each of the selected portfolios to be used in the scoring screen.

In addition, we calculated the average correlation across the three portfolios for each of the diagnostic screens. The following table depicts these average correlations:

[pic]

Although the MA5-MA30 and 5 Day Sum screens are highly correlated, we decided to score both screens. We believe having the MA5-MA30 screen will be highly beneficial during the out-of-sample periods because it will help control for the instability of the intercept coefficient. Specifically, there is no particular reason why a positive or negative coefficient for a stock during our in-sample period will also exist in the out-of-sample period. Therefore, the intercept in the 5 Day Sum screen could bias our residuals to be consistently positive or negative for any given stock. Comparing two moving averages, however, will help to mitigate this problem because any biases will be cancelled out.

Part 6: Results

In performing the in sample screenings, there are two inherent problems. First, the residuals are calculated using our pricing model on data from 1994-2002 and used to predict the returns one week in the future. Using this same pricing model to determine the returns in 1994 would have been incorrect as you would be using data that is in the future. Secondly, the act of screen the data for the best returns and totaling the screenings for the best portfolios essentially creates the problem of data snooping. If one sorts through enough data and continually screens, eventually positive returns can be found. The true test of the effectiveness of our model which eliminates both of these factors will be in the out of sample analysis.

For the final results, we first performed total scoring screens on the in sample data which add up all scores from each of 3 scored screens: 5 Day residual, 5 day moving average-30 day moving average, and the expected variance. The results, shown in Appendix C showed several areas of promise:

1. Trading on a Long/Short strategy, we produced returns of 19.7% and 18.1% on the equal-weighted and value-weighted portfolios, respectively.

2. These returns were produced at standard deviations below that of the market portfolio

3. The majority of the risk weighting was on the market excess returns and the square of the market excess returns. We found positive alpha on the highest portfolios with negative alpha on the low portfolio. It seemed our scoring model found positive returns outside the risk descriptions on the high portfolio while slightly overestimating the low portfolio.

Lastly, we performed the same total scoring screens using the out of sample data. The out of sample analysis on the 2003 hold out period was not positive.

1. Although the previous years of our sample nearly always had some degree of positive spread between the high and low portfolios, 2003 was a different story. Out of sample we incurred a loss of -16.4% and -23.7% on the equal-weighted and value-weighted portfolios, respectively.

2. These returns were definitely outpaced by the Dow, which had returns in the range of 25% for 2003. One major issue is likely the oversensitivity to the alpha intercept developed from previous years’ data.

Part 8: Next Steps

The results of our analysis showed positive, market excess returns which require further analysis. Several steps would be necessary to validate the returns achieved. We used a starting sample of 30 stocks to conduct the analysis. This sample was chosen in part to avoid the problem of addressing slippage. In further analysis, it would certainly be necessary to include slippage estimates as part of the analysis. This is especially true since the high turnover predicted by the screens could significantly affect the portfolio returns depending on the invested amount and the degree of slippage.

Other interesting strategies to test are:

• Estimate a rolling pricing model instead of the fixed historical time model currently used. This would allow the risk factor coefficients to change through time rather than being fixed.

• Optimize the scoring system instead of using our subjective scores. This could be done through a mean-variance optimization procedure.

• Factor trading costs and slippage costs explicitly into the model. As mentioned above, the high turnover would decrease the trading strategy returns.

• Test a 2-day model instead of the 5-day model used. The autocorrelation results showed that the second day had 90% of the observations with negative results, and the third through fifth day showed less negative results. (See table above)

• Conduct a moving average crossover strategy with automated buy/sell signals. With this strategy, there is the risk of trading on bad signals and increased transaction costs from higher turnover.

• This screen was very sensitive to the alpha intercept and it may have biased the results downward in 2003. A possible next step would be to develop a screening model less sensitive to this.
