Download or read book Real Estate Risk in Equity Returns written by Gaston Michel and published by Gabler Verlag. This book was released on 2009-06-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset pricing theory aims at linking an asset’s higher return to its higher risk exposure. However, the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) of Sharpe (1964) and Lintner (1965), the most widely taught model in business and economics classes, has been largely contested in the literature by researchers finding anomalous patterns in equity returns. Based on the failure to match the CAPM with empirical data, researchers have been in an ongoing dispute whether the anomalous behavior in equity returns is still reconcilable with market equilibrium and, therefore, with a risk-based explanation, or must be seen as consequences of investors’ irrational behavior and the agency costs of professional investment management. To support a rational pricing story, Fama and French (1992, 1993, 1996) develop a three-factor model that is highly successful in c- turing the two well-known anomalies related to a stock’s market capitalization and valuation level, the size and book-to-market effects. They argue that their model must be seen in the context of Merton’s (1973) Intertemporal Capital Asset Pricing Model (ICAPM) so that their size and book-to-market factors act as state variables capturing the investor’s hedging motives. They consider relative distress risk as the economic source of the common variation in stock returns related to their factors.

Download or read book Real Estate and its Role in Asset Pricing written by Cornelia Kullmann and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines whether residential and commercial real estate risks carry positive risk premiums. Real estate assets have been excluded from most of the empirical asset pricing literature because of perceived data and measurement problems. This paper shows, on the contrary, that the available data are sufficient to capture risks inherent in holding real estate assets. Using both Fama-MacBeth cross-sectional regression techniques and a stochastic discount factor GMM framework, I test whether the cross-sectional explanatory power of well-known asset pricing models can be improved by adding a real estate factor. I find strong evidence for the hypothesis that both residential and commercial real estate risks are priced by the market and therefore have a definite role in empirical asset pricing specifications. The main finding that returns to real estate improve the performance of empirical asset pricing specifications is not sensitive to the choice of assets being priced and holds for size and pre-beta sorted portfolios, size and book-to-market sorted portfolios, and portfolios in which assets are sorted initially by market value and then by sensitivity to a real estate index. The research set forth in this study is not only relevant for a better understanding of the empirical performance of linear asset pricing models but also has implications for the development of optimal investment strategies. Since most equity market investors are homeowners, the existence of a common real estate factor in asset prices has to be considered in portfolio choice decisions.

Download or read book Asset Pricing Spatial Linkages and Contagion in Real Estate Stocks written by Stanimira Milcheva and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although spatial techniques have been used to capture the spillovers in asset returns across different regions, they have not yet been applied in an asset pricing context. Combining asset pricing models and equilibrium spatial models can be a good way to disentangle spillover effects across assets thereby accounting for systemic risks. We use an innovative approach and estimate a four-factor 'Spatial' Capital Asset Pricing Model (SCAPM) which allows us to account for correlations in the error terms. We can account for direct or indirect spillover effects in the presence of increased spillovers through the idiosyncratic component or of increased spillovers through the market respectively. We find that contagion dramatically increases during the global financial crisis and the spillover effect can explain up to 40% of total asset variation. In the rest of the time, idiosyncratic risks have been the predominant type of risk in real estate stocks. Our results have implications for investors showing that the market can channel asset volatility leading to contagion during crisis periods and therefore residual linkages between country indices need to be accounted for as a means of assessing the diversification benefits of a global portfolio.

Download or read book Asset Pricing Theory written by Costis Skiadas and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-09 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset Pricing Theory is an advanced textbook for doctoral students and researchers that offers a modern introduction to the theoretical and methodological foundations of competitive asset pricing. Costis Skiadas develops in depth the fundamentals of arbitrage pricing, mean-variance analysis, equilibrium pricing, and optimal consumption/portfolio choice in discrete settings, but with emphasis on geometric and martingale methods that facilitate an effortless transition to the more advanced continuous-time theory. Among the book's many innovations are its use of recursive utility as the benchmark representation of dynamic preferences, and an associated theory of equilibrium pricing and optimal portfolio choice that goes beyond the existing literature. Asset Pricing Theory is complete with extensive exercises at the end of every chapter and comprehensive mathematical appendixes, making this book a self-contained resource for graduate students and academic researchers, as well as mathematically sophisticated practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of concepts and methods on which practical models are built. Covers in depth the modern theoretical foundations of competitive asset pricing and consumption/portfolio choice Uses recursive utility as the benchmark preference representation in dynamic settings Sets the foundations for advanced modeling using geometric arguments and martingale methodology Features self-contained mathematical appendixes Includes extensive end-of-chapter exercises

Download or read book Risk and Return in the U S Housing Market written by Susanne E. Cannon and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper carries out an asset-pricing analysis of the U.S. metropolitan housing market. We use zip code level housing data to study the cross-sectional role of volatility, price level, stock market risk and idiosyncratic volatility in explaining housing returns. While the related literature tends to focus on the dynamic role of volatility and housing returns within submarkets over time, our risk-return analysis is cross-sectional and covers the national U.S. metropolitan housing market. The study provides a number of important findings on the asset-pricing features of the U.S. housing market. Specifically, we find i) a positive relation between housing returns and volatility with returns rising by 2.48% annually for a 10% rise in volatility, ii) a positive but diminishing price effect on returns, iii) that stock market risk is priced directionally in the housing market and iv) idiosyncratic volatility is priced in housing returns. Our results on the return-volatility-price relation are robust to i) MSA (metropolitan statistical area) clustering effects and ii) differences in socioeconomic characteristics among submarkets related to income, employment rate, managerial employment, owner occupied housing, gross rent and population density.

Download or read book Real Estate Betas and the Implications for Asset Allocation written by Peter Mladina and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real estate is an important asset class, but what specifically does real estate contribute to improve diversified stock-bond portfolios? The author decomposes real estate investment trust returns into their factor betas to show that real estate is a hybrid asset class, with returns explained by a rich mix of compensated risk factors plus uncompensated sector risk. He shows that the same is true for private real estate, but with the additional contribution to risk from misappraisals. It is the rich mix of common factors contained in real estate that can improve the Sharpe ratios of diversified, multiasset portfolios. He discusses the implications for asset allocation from the perspectives of mean-variance optimization of asset classes, the capital asset pricing model with efficient markets, and factor-based asset allocation.

Download or read book The Relationships Between Real Estate Price and Expected Financial Asset Risk and Return written by Gang-Zhi Fan and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In pricing real estate with indifference pricing approach, market incompleteness significantly distorts the conventional pricing relationships between real estate and financial asset. In this paper, we focus on the pricing implication of market comovement because comovement tends to be stronger in financial crisis when investors are especially sensitive to price declines. We find that real estate price increases with expected financial asset return but only in weak market comovement (i.e., a normal market environment) when investors enjoy diversification benefit. When market comovement is strong, real estate price strictly declines with expected financial asset return. More importantly, contrary to the conventional positive relationship, real estate price generally declines with expected financial asset risk. Even when market comovement is strong, real estate price only increases with financial asset risk when the risk is low but eventually declines with the risk when it becomes high. These nonlinear price relationships highlight the importance of asset market comovement that is usually overlooked by conventional option pricing model developed in complete market setting.

Download or read book Asset Pricing and the Housing Market written by Olaf Weeken and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: House prices have risen rapidly in recent years. While there is little doubt that the rates of increase observed are unsustainable, there is uncertainty as to the sustainability of the level of house prices. This article applies asset-pricing theory to the housing market to gain additional insights into some of the factors accounting for this rise in house prices. It presents estimates of the ratio of house prices to net rentals (a concept close to an equity market's price to earnings ratio). This ratio is currently well above its long-term average, a situation that in the past has often been followed by periods in which real house prices have fallen. However, a simple 'dividend' discount model of the housing market suggests that lower real interest rates can account for part of the increase in the ratio of house prices to net rentals since 1996. Nevertheless, to account fully for this increase, the housing risk premium would need to have fallen too. Comparing the implied housing risk premium now with that in the late 1980s may suggest that house prices are closer to sustainable levels now than was the case in the late 1980s. However, because of data and model limitations no firm conclusions can be drawn.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur L. Schwartz, Jr. and Steven D. Kapplin The focus of this volume of the ARES Monograph Series is new ideas in real estate investment. Within this volume, empiricial studies, literature reviews, and tutorials examine a broad range of important investment issues. Many new and innovative ideas are presented. This volume should be a rich source of real estate investment ideas for many years to come. Kapplin and Schwartz examine the returns of two types of REITs, as well as that of Master Limited Partnerships (MLP), over the 1987-1989 time period. Their sample consisted of 54 real estate securities; they conclude that these entities did not provide an effective inflation hedge. MLP returns exceeded that of the overall stock market, but the two REIT types did not provide rates-of-return in excess of the marked. An extensive review of the commercial real estate return literature is presented by Fletcher. He focuses upon studies that utilize commingled real estate fund (CREF) data. His detailed overview of the subject provides a much needed synthesis of the current literature. Roulac presents an extensive discussion of the differences in the per spectives of individual versus institutional investors. In his essay, he considers such factors as scale, diversification, and related issues. Addi tionally, he examines a wide range of literature from within academia, 1 INTRODUCTION 2 as well as the opinions of various real estate gurus. He concludes that behavioral factors override economic considerations.
