Risk, Return, and Equilibrium: Empirical Tests
Eugene F. Fama,James D. MacBeth +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between average return and risk for New York Stock Exchange common stocks was tested using a two-parameter portfolio model and models of market equilibrium derived from the two parameter portfolio model.

An Empirical Examination of the Black‐Scholes Call Option Pricing Model
TL;DR: In this article, a descriptive analysis of how market prices of call options compare with prices predicted by the Black and Scholes [2], B-S, option pricing model is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tests of the Black-Scholes and Cox Call Option Valuation Models
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Cox's and Ross' constant elasticity of variance diffusion processes to model heteroscedasticity in returns to common stocks and found that the Cox valuation model fits market prices of call options significantly better than the Black-Scholes model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tests of the multiperiod two-parameter model
Eugene F. Fama,James D. MacBeth +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of the one-period two-parameter model applied period-by-period apply to multi-period decision problems, and the empirical tests reveal no evidence of measurable relationships between the returns on portfolio assets from t−1 to t and the level of expected returns to be available at t.
