An analyst has modeled the stock of a company using the Fama-French three-factor model. The market return is 10%, the return on the SMB portfolio (rSMB) is 3.2%, and the return on the HML portfolio (rHML) is 4.8%. If ai = 0, bi = 1.2, ci = 20.4, and di = 1.3, what is the stock’s predicted return?
A stock is trading at $80 per share. The stock is expected to have a yearend dividend of $4 per share (D1 = $4), and it is expected to grow at some constant rate, g, throughout time. The stock’s required rate of return is 14% (assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return). What is your forecast of gL?
