Gold price ratios and aggregate stock returns(In progress)
Working paper：SSRN
Top ten downloads from Oct 6 to Dec 5 on SSRN for ERN: Asset Price Forecasts (Topic), ERN: Precious Metals (Topic), Econometric Modeling: Capital Markets - Forecasting eJournal and Econometric Modeling: Commodity Markets eJournal
Abstract: We examine whether gold price ratios, which represent the relative valuations of gold, predict aggregate stock returns. We find that gold price ratios positively predict future stock returns in-sample, but fail to generate significant out-of-sample forecasting performance, except for the gold-oil price ratio (GO). GO is the most powerful predictor both in-sample and out-of-sample. The predictive ability of GO remains significant after controlling for traditional predictors and other gold price ratios. We find that GO drives stock returns through the cash flow channel, and is also associated with future bad economic conditions. The GO movement is determined by rare disaster concerns instead of economic fundamentals. Our results are robust to a series of tests.
Global trade network and the cross-section of international stock market returns (Under review)
Abstract: We investigate the relationship between global trade network centrality and international stock market returns. Our empirical results show that trade network centrality negatively and significantly predicts international stock market returns, indicating that central (peripheral) economies have lower (higher) stock returns. The predictive power remains significant after controlling for traditional predictors. A centrality-based long-short trading strategy generates a significant centrality premium, which cannot be fully explained by the international risk factors of Fama and French (2012). We provide several potential and interesting explanations and find that international consumption risk-sharing, conflict risk and information asymmetry are helpful in understanding the relationship between trade network centralities and stock market return differentials.

Climate change, residential housing prices and population adaptations (In progress)
Abstract: In this paper, we use the Palmer drought severity index (PDSI) to measure climate change risk and evaluate its effect on city-level residential housing prices in China. Our results indicate that drought risk is significantly priced in residential housing markets. Cities with more severe droughts tend to have lower housing prices, and no heterogeneous effect on housing prices is found. Real estate regulations, which are implemented by the Chinese central and local governments to restrain speculations and market bubbles, can mitigate the negative effect of drought risk on housing prices. We also reveal that people adapt to climate change by migrating away from cities with severe droughts, which explains housing price dynamics in the era of climate change. Our results are robust to a series of tests.
