Market Returns
The Market Return Distribution Market Value-relatives, year and month VR y = VR m1 * Vr m2 *...* VR m12 Thus: log(VR y ) = log(VR m1 )+ … + log(VR m12 ) If monthly value-relatives are independently distributed: then log(VR y ) will be approximately normally distributed i.e. VRy will be approximately lognormally distributed
The Pricing Kernel
Price per chance: PPC st = f ( cumRm st ) Present value: PV st = PPC st ∗π st Probability: Probability: every π st = 1 / number of scenarios Constant Elasticity: log ( PPC st )= a − b log ( cumRm st )
Constant Elasticity and CAPM Pricing Kernels
Constant Elasticity and CAPM Pricing Kernels on loglog scales
Constant Elasticity Pricing Kernel ● Pricing for any given year is a function of the cumulative market return up to that year ● ● This can only be true for one year for the CAPM ● ● This kernel can provide a present value for any set of cash flows for various times and scenarios from any income source or sources
