| Abstract: | The article provides a comprehensive study of survivorship issues using the mutual fund data of Carhart (J. of Finance 50(1997)679-698). The authors demonstrate that when survival depends on multiperiod performance, the survivorship bias in average performance typically increases with the sample length. |
