The credit risk puzzle, however, states a negative cross-sectional relationship between credit risk and future stock returns (Journal of Finance, 53, 1998, 1131; Journal of Finance, 57, 2002, 2317; Journal of Finance, 63, 2008, 2899; Journal of Financial Markets, 12, 2009, 469). This paper examines the credit risk puzzle using an independent dataset from Taiwan`s stock market. We document a significantly positive premium between highest- and lowest-rated stocks in both portfolios and individual stocks, and demonstrate that it cannot be explained by well-known asset-pricing models, including the CAPM, Journal of Financial Economics, 33, 1993, 3 three-factor model, and Journal of Financial Economics 82, 2006, 631 liquidity-augmented CAPM. Unlike the evidence collected from the US market, rating downgrades only have limited impact on the cross-sectional variation of stock returns in Taiwan. Further analysis indicates that credit rating serves as a better proxy for distress risk, and is thus priced in Taiwan`s stock market. 關聯 Asia-Pacific Journal of Financial Studies,42(3), 403-441 資料類型 article DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/ajfs.12019 dc.contributor 國貿系 en_US dc.creator (作者) Chu, Hsiang-Hui ; Ko, Kuan-Cheng ; Lin, Shinn-Juh ; Ho, Hsiao-Wei en_US dc.creator (作者) 林信助 - dc.date (日期) 2013.01 en_US dc.date.accessioned 9-Apr-2014 15:45:33 (UTC+8) - dc.date.available 9-Apr-2014 15:45:33 (UTC+8) - dc.date.issued (上傳時間) 9-Apr-2014 15:45:33 (UTC+8) - dc.identifier.uri (URI) http://nccur.lib.nccu.edu.tw/handle/140.119/65215 - dc.description.abstract (摘要) Rational asset-pricing theory asserts that higher risk should be accompanied by higher expected return.
