Conclusions.Modern asset pricing models play a central role in finance and economic theory and applications. This book introduces a structural theory to evaluate these asset pricing models and throws light on the existence of Equity Premium Puzzle. Based on the structural theory, some algebraic (valuation-preserving) operations are developed in asset spaces and pricing kernel spaces. This has a very important implication leading to practical guidance in portfolio management and asset allocation in the global financial industry. The book also covers topics, such as the role of over-confidence in assetCapital assets pricing modelStocksPricesMathematical modelsCapital assets pricing model.StocksPricesMathematical models.332.632042Cheng Bing406939Tong Howell66323MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822090703321Asset pricing4002517UNINA
