Researchers disagree as to the cause and meaning of these differences. This paper derives and analyzes the broad-dividend version of the present value hypothesis to show that under common assumptions, these differences in variance-bounds tests have only two possible causes: Either narrow-dividend tests have rejected the present value hypothesis because of bubbles (either rational bubbles, or \"empirical\" bubbles as might be effected by dividend-smoothing or dividend-nonpayment); or broad-dividend tests simply have lacked power to detect mispricing. Using simulation and results from previous studies, this paper demonstrates that the second possible cause -- the lack of power in broad-dividend tests -- most likely explains the differences between narrow- and broad-dividend variance-bounds tests.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51961403900192,"sku":"NEW1288719248","price":18.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/finance-and-economics-discussion-series-bubbles-or-noise-reconciling-the-results-of-broad-dividend-variance-bounds-tests-1288719248","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
