8A major difference between forecasting long-term average trend growth and short-to-intermediate GDP growth is that the trend growth:
- Areflects both labor inputs and TFP while cyclical forecasts only reflect labor inputs.
- Breflects the demand side of the economy while cyclical forecasts reflect the supply side.
- Creflects the supply side of the economy while cyclical forecasts reflect the demand side.
9Trickstanissibouroughville is expected to produce nominal GDP of $4.6T in 3 years, the share of corporate profits to GDP will be 6.8% while the PE multiple is expected to be 18x. The aggregate market value of equity today is $3.8T and the long-run real trend growth rate of GDP is estimated at 4.6% with inflation expectation of 2.4%.

- Agrowth in potential labor force size.
- Bgrowth from increasing capital inputs.
- Cgrowth in actual labor force participation.
12A data-mining bias typically develops due to:
- Amodel uncertainty.
- Bbiased methodology.
- Cthe failure to account for conditioning information.
13Developing unconditional forecasts by averaging over environments is a result of:
- Apsychological biases.
- Bthe misinterpretation of correlation.
- Cthe failure to account for conditioning information.
14A large data set had several significant relationships for which the analyst had not considered. Unfortunately, the relationships don’t seem to exist in other data sets for other markets or other time periods. The findings may have been the result of:
- Atime-period bias.
- Bdata-mining bias.
- Csurvivorship bias.
15A significant relationship between 2 variables as the result of a hypothesis test has not been found again across several markets and over differing time periods. The result may have been the result of:
- Atime-period bias.
- Bdata-mining bias.
- Csurvivorship bias.
16Using higher frequency data, weekly instead of monthly for example, will not improve the precision of sample:
- Ameans.
- Bvariances.
- Ccorrelations.
17Regime changes in the historical record give rise to:
- Arandom walks.
- Bnon-stationarity.
- Clog-normal asset price series.
18When analyst’s talk about imposing structure on historical data, they specifically mean:
- Aassuming some distributional properties of past data that are expected to describe future data.
- Busing a model that is presumed to have generated the data in the past and is expected to do so in the future.
- Cdeveloping time-series returns for asset classes all with the same look-back period and all with the same frequency of observations.
19The first step in determining CMEs is to:
- Aresearch the historical record.
- Bspecify the methods/models to be used to develop expectations.
- Cdetermine asset classes for which expectations will be developed.
20Since developing capital market expectations (CMEs) is a forward-looking undertaking, frameworks for developing CMEs would not suggest/include:
- Aresearching the historical record.
- Bextrapolating historical return data into projections.
- Cusing the historical record to determine possible ranges for future results.

25For global equity markets, country effects tend to be more important than industry effects for:

26Country E’s equity market has a current Sharpe ratio (SRi) of 0.35 and volatility (σi) of 22%. Country E’s degree of integration with the global marketplace (φs) is currently 0.5 but expected to increase to 0.7. This will reduce the volatility of Country E’s equity market by 4% and increase Country E’s equity market return correlation (ρi,GM) with that of the global market portfolio by 0.12 from the current 0.6. If the Sharpe ratio of the global market portfolio is 0.30, Country E’s equity will premium will:
- Aincrease by 1.22%.
- Bdecrease by 1.22%.
- Cincrease by 4.61%.
27When using the Singer-Terhaar model, which level of integration is most likely to represent the asset class commodities?
- A0.55
- B0.75
- C0.85
28When using the Singer-Terhaar model, which level of integration is most likely to represent developing market equities?
- A0.40
- B0.65
- C0.90
29Country D’s equity market has a Sharpe ratio (SRi) of 0.23 and volatility (σi) of 15%. Country D’s degree of integration with the global marketplace (Φs) is 0.9. The Sharpe ratio of the global market portfolio (SRGM) is 0.30. Country D’s equity market returns have a correlation (ρi,GM ) of 0.9 with the returns on the global market portfolio.
