Inhaltsangabe

Understanding how the market model explains stock returns across Europe and the U.S.

The book presents an empirical test of the market model and CAPM by examining how security risk premiums relate to their systematic risk, using data from 228 European stocks across seven countries plus a comparison set of 65 American stocks from 1966 to 1971. It explains how beta measures the market-related risk of each security and how the model’s predictions hold up under real-world conditions.

Two short chapters frame the scope and value: one explains the data base and how prices, dividends, and market indexes are prepared for analysis; the other discusses methodological choices that affect parameter estimates, such as interval length and data quality. The discussion helps readers understand why results may vary with daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly returns.

- Learn how beta and risk premiums are estimated and interpreted
- See how CAPM expectations compare with observed security returns
- Understand data preparation, including adjustments for splits and dividends
- Explore how return interval and measurement errors influence findings

Ideal for readers of empirical finance, market researchers, and students seeking a clear view of how market models perform in real markets.
