An Exploration of How Higher Order Market Effects may Explain and Predict Stock Returns

This note develops a nonlinear version of the APT and market models with higher order market moments. I illustrate how these models work for five highly visible stocks. I show that nonlinearity is a prevalent condition that improves the understanding of individual stock returns for a given sample. I also find that nonlinearity may help forecasts in some cases. However, I also show that it is quite common for all asset pricing models to completely fail to outperform simple naive forecasts out of sample. The forecast breakdown has to do with model uncertainty, which I show to be quite common.
