Abstract:This paper performs a simulation analysis of the Fama and MacBeth 2-pass procedure (publ. in "Risk, returns and equilibrium: empirical tests", Journal of Political Economy, 1973, vol. 71, p. 607-636), as well as maximum likelihood (ML) and generalized method of moments estimators of cross-sectional expected return models. In addition, relations between estimators, asymptotic distributions under model misspecification ... are provided etc.
