Reversal Patterns in Risk-Adjusted Returns: Evidence of Excess Volatility in Anomalies

According to a no-arbitrage condition, risk-adjusted returns should be unpredictable. Using several

prominent factor models and a large cross-section of anomalies, we find that past cumulative riskadjusted

returns predict future anomaly returns with a negative sign. We interpret these cumulative

returns as deviations of an anomaly price from the mean-variance efficient portfolio, introducing a

novel anomaly-specific predictor endogenous to both the anomaly portfolio and the factor model.

The observed reversal pattern in risk-adjusted returns is consistent with a transitory component in

prices, indicating excess volatility in anomaly prices beyond what discount rate adjustments can

explain.
