Topic: Which Expectation? Toward a Unified Framework of Expectation-based Asset Pricing
Speaker: Yingguang Zhang, Peking University
Time: Friday, Oct. 29, 12:00–1:00 PM, Beijing Time
Location: Room K01, Guanghua Building 2
Abstract:
I show that the dynamics of financial analysts' forecast error term structure suggests an expectation formation process that encompasses stickiness in level (Bouchaud et al. (2019)) and extrapolation in growth (Fuster et al. (2010) and Bordalo et al. (2019)). A model in which investors form expectations this way yields consistent predictions for the well-known stock market anomalies, novel predictions for the shape and dynamics of the expectation error term structure as functions of firm characteristics, and other new cross-sectional return implications. The empirical results support all the model's predictions, highlighting the two expectation biases as key ingredients for a unified framework of expectation-based asset pricing.
