| Tiivistelmä: | A set of diagnostic tests is developed which can enlighten why a particular model is failing. It is indicated what steps might be taken to make the model consistent with asset returns. Bounds on the discount factor are estimated using size-based portfolios, and the results are used to analyze the small-firm effect. Empirical results show, for the period 1926-1975, that moments of the returns of small firms contain information about the discount factor that is not contained in the moments of returns of large firms and/or a proxy of the aggregate wealth portfolio. However, this difference disappears when more recent data are included. |
