Fama and MacBeth (1973) [Risk, Return, and Equilibrium: Empirical Tests, Journal of Political Economy 91, 607-636] is one of the “standard” references on testing the CAPM.   Using first- and second-pass equations with clearly defined terms, describe the cross-sectional testing procedure employed by Fama and MacBeth. [8] What are four hypotheses and implications of the second-pass model of Fama and MacBeth? [6] What are the methodological issues faced by Fama and MacBeth and how do they address them? [8] The significance of their estimates was determined using an approach that is now called the “Fama-MacBeth t-statistics” and is commonly used in Corporate Finance. How is this computed? [3]

Fama and French (1993) [Common Risk Factors in the Returns on Stocks and Bonds, Journal of Financial Economics 33, 3-56] use a time-series approach to asset pricing to demonstrate that (1) three stock market risk factors and two bond market risk factors are “priced” in stock and bond returns and (2) that the cross-section of average stock and bond returns are explained by these risk factors.   Using an appropriately described equation, discuss the time-series approach to asset pricing used by Fama and French to achieve the above objectives. That is, list/discuss the measures or tests that Fama and French consider to determine if a given time series test has done a good job to price the returns on test assets. [20] Discuss diagnostic tests and the rationale for each test carried out by Fama and French (1993) to ensure the validity of their inferences. [5]
