Abstract

This paper examines the effects of fundamental variables on stock returns. Therefore, the major purpose of this study is to identify fundamental variables having a systematical effect on the stock return. The paper uses panel data analysis. We find that the results of regressions say that firm size, book-to-market ratio(B/M), earning-to-price ratio(E/P), cash flow-to-price ratio(C/P) can explain the differences in average returns across stocks.

본 연구는 기업규모, 장부가치/시장가치 비율, 순이익/주가 비율, 현금흐름/주가 비율, 레버리지 등 기본적 변수를 사용하여 주식수익률에 유의적인 변수를 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 횡단면 자료와 시계열 자료를 결합한 패널자료(panel data)를 이용하여 패널자료분석방법으로 연구모형을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 일반적으로 패널자료를 사용하면 Hsiao[13]가 지적한 바와 같이 표본의 크기를 확대시켜 자유도를 증가시키고 이론적으로 설명변수간 다중공선성(muti-collinearity) 문제를 완화할 수 있다. 실증분석결과에 의하면 기업규모(SIZ), 장부가치/시장가치 비율(B/M), 순이익/주가 비율(E/P), 현금흐름/주가 비율(C/P) 등이 주식수익률의 횡단면적 차이를 설명할 수 있는 유의적인 변수라 할 수 있다.
