Abstract

In the constant trade-off between accurate modelling of stock returns and maintaining a practical number of risk factors there is clear incentive to prematurely suggest optimal solutions.

As the literature enters a period of machine learning, and potential over-fitting, this is a timely reminder to give more heed to the true applicability of any proclamation on improvement in asset pricing fit.
