First, we analyze the potential biases in reported hedge fund returns, in particular survivorship bias and backfill bias, and attempt to create an unbiased return sample. Second, we decompose these returns into their three A,B,C components: the value added by hedge funds (alphas), the systematic market exposures (betas), and the hedge fund fees (costs). We analyze the performance of a universe of about 3,500 hedge funds from the TASS database from January 1995 through April 2006. Our results indicate that both survivorship and backfill biases are potentially serious problems. The equally weighted performance of the funds that existed at the end of the sample period had a compound annual return of 16.45% net of fees.

  • Betting Against Alpha
    Betting Against Alpha Alex R. Horenstein Department of Economics School of Business Administration University of Miami [email protected] December 11, 2017 Abstract. I sort stocks based on realized alphas estimated from the CAPM, Carhart (1997), and Fama-French Five Factor (FF5, 2015) models and nd that realized alphas are negatively related with future stock returns, future alpha, and Sharpe Ratios. Thus, I construct a Betting Against Alpha (BAA) factor that buys a portfolio of low-alpha stocks and sells a portfolio of high-alpha stocks. Using rank estimation methods, I show that the BAA factor spans a dimension of stock returns dierent than Frazzini and Pedersen's (2014) Betting Against Beta (BAB) factor. Additionally, the BAA factor captures information about the cross-section of stock returns missed by the CAPM, Carhart, and FF5 models. The performance of the BAA factor further improves if the low alpha portfolio is calculated from low beta stocks and the high alpha portfolio from high beta stocks. I call this factor Betting Against Alpha and Beta (BAAB). I discuss several reasons that support the existence of this counter-intuitive low-alpha anomaly.

I call this new anomaly the low-alpha anomaly: Portfolios constructed with assets having low realized alphas (overpriced according to the CAPM) have higher Sharpe Ratios, future alphas, and expected returns than portfolios constructed with assets having high-realized alphas (underpriced according to the CAPM).

  • Chapter 10: Arbitrage Pricing Theory and Multifactor Models of Risk and Return
    CHAPTER 10: ARBITRAGE PRICING THEORY AND MULTIFACTOR MODELS OF RISK AND RETURN CHAPTER 10: ARBITRAGE PRICING THEORY AND MULTIFACTOR MODELS OF RISK AND RETURN PROBLEM SETS 1. The revised estimate of the expected rate of return on the stock would be the old estimate plus the sum of the products of the unexpected change in each factor times the respective sensitivity coefficient: revised estimate = 12% + [(1 × 2%) + (0.5 × 3%)] = 15.5% 2. The APT factors must correlate with major sources of uncertainty, i.e., sources of uncertainty that are of concern to many investors. Researchers should investigate factors that correlate with uncertainty in consumption and investment opportunities. GDP, the inflation rate, and interest rates are among the factors that can be expected to determine risk premiums. In particular, industrial production (IP) is a good indicator of changes in the business cycle. Thus, IP is a candidate for a factor that is highly correlated with uncertainties that have to do with investment and consumption opportunities in the economy. 3. Any pattern of returns can be “explained” if we are free to choose an indefinitely large number of explanatory factors. If a theory of asset pricing is to have value, it must explain returns using a reasonably limited number of explanatory variables (i.e., systematic factors). 4. Equation 10.9 applies here: E(rp ) = rf + βP1 [E(r1 ) rf ] + βP2 [E(r2 ) – rf ] We need to find the risk premium (RP) for each of the two factors: RP1 = [E(r1 ) rf ] and RP2 = [E(r2 ) rf ] In order to do so, we solve the following system of two equations with two unknowns: .31 = .06 + (1.5 × RP1 ) + (2.0 × RP2 ) .27 = .06 + (2.2 × RP1 ) + [(–0.2) × RP2 ] The solution to this set of equations is: RP1 = 10% and RP2 = 5% Thus, the expected return-beta relationship is: E(rP ) = 6% + (βP1 × 10%) + (βP2 × 5%) 5.

  • WHERE DO ALPHAS COME FROM?: a MEASURE of the VALUE of ACTIVE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT∗ Andrew W
    JOURNAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, Vol. 6, No. 2, (2008), pp. 1–29 © JOIM 2008 JOIM www.joim.com WHERE DO ALPHAS COME FROM?: A MEASURE OF THE VALUE OF ACTIVE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT∗ Andrew W. Lo† The value of active investment management is traditionally measured by alpha, beta, volatility, tracking error, and the Sharpe and information ratios. These are essentially static characteristics of the marginal distributions of returns at a single point in time, and do not incorporate dynamic aspects of a manager’s investment process. In this paper, I propose a measure of the value of active investment management that captures both static and dynamic contributions of a portfolio manager’s decisions. The measure is based on a decomposition of a portfolio’s expected return into two distinct components: a static weighted-average of the individual securities’ expected returns, and the sum of covariances between returns and portfolio weights. The former component measures the portion of the manager’s expected return due to static investments in the underlying securities, while the latter component captures the forecast power implicit in the manager’s dynamic investment choices. This measure can be computed for long-only investments, long/short portfolios, and asset allocation rules, and is particularly relevant for hedge-fund strategies where both components are significant contributors to their expected returns, but only one should garner the high fees that hedge funds typically charge. Several analytical and empirical examples are provided to illustrate the practical relevance of this decomposition. 1 Introduction ∗I thank Nicholas Chan, John Cox, Arnout Eikeboom, Lisa Goldberg, Mark Grinblatt, Stephanie Hogue, Rajnish Kamat, Philippe Luedi, Sara Salem, Nils Tuchschmid, an anonymous With the growing popularity of hedge funds and referee, and participants at the Le Club B 2006 Conference other absolute-return investment strategies, there and the JOIM 2007 Spring Conference for their helpful com- is a widening gap between the performance met- ments and discussion.

  • Short Selling Risk and Hedge Fund Performance.Pdf
    Short Selling Risk and Hedge Fund Performance Lei (Matthew) Ma* This Draft: December 2019 Abstract: Hedge funds, on average, outperform other actively managed funds. However, hedge fund managers often use trading strategies that are not used by other managed portfolios, and thus they bear unique risks. In particular, many hedge funds use short selling. I construct an option- based measure of short selling risk as the return spread between the decile of stocks with low option-implied short selling fees and the decile of those with high fees. I find that hedge funds that are significantly exposed to short selling risk outperform low-exposure funds by 0.45% per month on a risk-adjusted basis. However, there is no such relation for mutual funds that invest primarily on the long side. The results highlight that a significant proportion of abnormal performance of hedge funds is compensation for the risk they take on their short positions. JEL classification: G23; G11 Keywords: hedge funds, mutual funds, short selling risk, short risk exposure *Contact: Matthew Ma, Cox School of Business, Southern Methodist University, e-mail: [email protected]; I am grateful to Jonathan Brogaard, Jeff Coles, Mike Cooper, Mike Gallmeyer, Pab Jotikasthira, Matthew Ringgenberg, Mehrdad Samadi, Steve Stubben, Kumar Venkataraman, Kelsey Wei, Ingrid Werner, Julie Wu, Feng Zhang, Feng Zhao, and conference and seminar participants at the University of Utah, the University of Texas at Dallas, and Northern Finance Association Conference 2018 for insightful and helpful comments.
