Abstract: | We evaluate the investment performance of hedge funds using an asset pricing model that is characterized by a piecewise-linear
stochastic discount factor, and which we estimate using the generalized method of moments by minimizing the Hansen–Jagannathan
distance. Our results show that, once non-linearities and public information are taken into account, there is only evidence
of positive performance for the overall hedge fund index, equity-market neutral strategy and the global macro strategy. |
