Tiivistelmä: | According to valuation theory expected (here as: exp.) stock returns are related to three variables: i. the book-to-market equity ratio (Bt/Mt), ii. exp. profitability (as: prf.), and iii. exp. investment. Given Bt/Mt and exp. prf., higher exp. rates of investment imply lower exp. returns (as: rets). However, controlling for the other two variables, more profitable firms have higher exp. rets., as do firms with higher Bt/Mt. These predictions are confirmed herein. |
