Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model and the Market Model to Predict Security Returns

R. Richardson Pettit; Randolph Westerfield

Abstract

This paper examines the validity of two widely used methods for forming conditional predicted portfolio returns. The first method relies on a one-period, mean-variance theory of equilibrium expected return, sometimes referred to as the “capital asset pricing model” (CAPM). The second method is based upon a proposal by Markowitz [14] and is called the [market model] (MM).
