課程概述

This graduate-level course will introduce recent development in empirical asset pricing (models and anomalies), and how to apply the findings in the literature on portfolio management.
Students who want to take this course are required to have the following prerequisites:
1. Knowledge about fundamental investment theories
(e.g., portfolio theory, capital asset pricing model, and efficient market hypothesis)
2. Knowledge about statistical inference and linear regression
(e.g., ordinary least square, standard error, t-value, p-value, R-square)
3. Equipment and software (a laptop and STATA version 13.0 or higher) 

課程目標
Learning goals
1. Understand the recent development in empirical asset pricing (will introduce 20 journal articles)
(1) Models: CAMP, Fama-French three factor model, Cahart four factor model
(2) Anomalies: Size, value, momentum, investment, profitability
2. Learn how to back-test an investment strategy
E.g., will buy stocks with low P/E and sell stocks with high P/E earn abnormal returns?
3. Understand how asset managers incorporate academic findings into their portfolio management strategy
