Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Although the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) has been one of the most useful and frequently used theories in determining the required rate of return of a security, the application of this model has been controversial since early 1960s. The CAPM was introduced by Jack Treynor, William Sharpe, John Lintner and Jan Mossin independently, building on the earlier work of Harry Markowitz on diversification and modern portfolio theory. In theory, the capital asset pricing model is employed to set the investor required rate of return on a risky security given the non-diversifiable firm-specific risk, as the systematic risk will be eliminated in a well-diversified portfolio. This research aims to shed the light on this model by discussing the assumptions, the evolution of the Sharpe and Lintner model, and reviewing the literature on the relaxation of model assumptions and the critiques of the CAPM. Finally, the Arbitrage Pricing Model as an extension for the CAPM will be discussed.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
