Asset pricing factors and future economic growth

Abstract

We test if seven commonly used asset-pricing factors predict future growth in GDP and industrial production. There is minimal evidence that asset-pricing factors other than the market factor predict future economic growth. Predictive power of these factors reported in earlier literature seems to have attenuated.
