Capital Market Expectations
Medium
A researcher finds that a commodity index strongly predicts emerging market equity returns from 2003 to 2011, but the relationship breaks down entirely from 2012 to 2023. This is most consistent with:
A
Time-period bias, because the finding is sensitive to the specific sample dates
B
Data-mining bias, because the researcher tested too many variables
C
Appraisal smoothing, because commodity data is based on infrequent valuations
D
Survivorship bias, because underperforming emerging markets left the index
