文摘Fama and French propose a five-factor model containing the market factor and factors related to size,book-to-market equity ratio,profitability and investment,which outperforms the Fama-French three-factor model in their paper 2014.This study investigates the performance of Fama-French five-factor model and compare with that of Fama-French three-factor model on Chinese A-share stock market.The empirical results show that Fama-French five-factor model explanatory power has differences among different sets of portfolios.Compared with Fama-French three-factor model,the presence of profitability and investment factors donot seem to capture more variations of expected stock returns than the three-factor model except for six value-weighted portfolios formed on size and operating profitability.
