Tuomo Vuolteenaho will present: Purifying the Equity Premium

Abstract: The equity premium has conventionally been defined as the return on stocks minus the return on bills. We decompose this conventional definition into two components: the pure equity premium, defined as stocks minus duration-matched inflation-indexed bonds, and the real term premium, defined as duration-matched inflation-indexed bonds minus bills. Empirically, we find that the pure equity premium has no “puzzling” features, as it not only has a relatively low Sharpe ratio but also a high correlation with measured consumption growth. However, challenges remain: The real term premium has a high sample mean and volatility, and realizations of the pure equity premium and real term premium are very negatively correlated.
