Pollet和Wilson的研究认为,股市平均相关性-收益关系比股市波动-收益关系能够更好的阐述总体风险-收益关系。本文研究了投资者情绪对股市平均相关性-收益关系的影响。实证结果表明,相比于股市波动,平均相关性对股市预期收益的解释能力明显增强,并且在低情绪期,平均相关性-收益之间的关系并不显著,而在高情绪期,平均相关性-收益关系被削弱为显著的负相关关系,这表明高情绪会削弱总体风险-收益关系。这一结论在随后的稳健性检验中被证明是稳健的。
Pollet and Wilson said that the average correlation-return relation will be better than the mean-variance relation as proxy for the overall risk-return relation in the capital market. The correlation between investor sentiment and the average correlation-return relation is studied in this paper. After using data from 2001 to 2011 in the Chinese stock market to construct a investor sentiment index, the following empirical results are obtained. Compared with the stock market variance, the average correlation's ability is better than the stock market variance in forcasting earings, while in the low-sentiment periods, the average correlation-return relation is not significant, but during the high-sentiment periods, average correlation-return relation has been weakened significantly, even become a negative correlation. This shows that high sentiment will weaken the overall risk-return relationship. The conclusions' robustness has been proved in the subsequent robustness test, which shows a new mechanism of investor sentiment's influence on expected returns.
