A NOTE ON BAYESIAN INFERENCE IN ASSET PRICING
推导了资产定价模型贝叶斯分析中一个关键参数的后验分布,发现该分布可由标准资产定价检验中的项直接计算,无需蒙特卡洛方法。
In this paper the authors extend results by Harvey and Zhou (1990, Journal of Financial Econometrics 26, 221–254) and Kandel, McCulloch, and Stambaugh (1995, Review of Financial Studies 8(1), 1–53) to derive the posterior distribution of a key parameter in a Bayesian analysis of asset pricing models. It is shown that this distribution depends upon the same terms that constitute the standard asset pricing test of Jobson and Korkie (1985, Canadian Journal of Administrative Science 12, 114–138). Contrary to the view held by other authors, we find straightforward expressions for the posterior distribution that can be calculated without resorting to Monte Carlo methods.
