Shiller's CAPE: Market Efficiency and Risk

Abstract: Robert Shiller shows that Cyclically Adjusted Price to Earnings Ratio (CAPE) is strongly associated with future long‐term stock returns. This is often interpreted as evidence of market inefficiency. We present two findings contrary to such an interpretation. First, if markets are efficient, stock returns should be higher than the risk‐free rate. We find that even when CAPE is in its ninth decile, future 10‐year stock returns, on average, are higher than future returns on 10‐year U.S. Treasurys. Thus, the resul… Show more

“…He came to the conclusion that by using the combination of 1/CAPE and the total sum of future returns, the returns of the S&P 500 for the next decade could be very well predicted. Dimitrov and Jain ( 2018 ) tested market efficiency using the CAPE index. They stated that stock returns are higher than US 10-year bond yields, so even at very high CAPE prices, the buy and hold strategy can work.…”

“…Over the last three decades, the subject has become the center of finance research, attracted many researchers' attention, and contributed to the development of corporate finance theory. Despite critics and anomalies raised by several researchers (e.g., Massey & Thaler, 2013;Malkiel, 2003), many researchers believed that the prices incorporate in the stock market reflect information available in the market (Chordia & Miao, 2020;Dimitrov & Jain, 2018;Fama, 1998).…”
