The determining force behind the value premium is the matter of debate among the researchers. Some are of the opinion that the financial distress risk determines value premium whereas other theorize that value premium is basically the compensation for operating leverage (investment activity risk). This research provides empirical evidence on this theoretical contradiction by investigating the relationships of financial leverage (FL) and operating leverage (OL) with stock returns, the book to market ratio (B/M), and systematic risk on non-financial sector firms trading at the Pakistan stock exchange (PSE). This research empirically finds significant and direct influence of operating leverage on stock returns, the book to market ratio, and systematic risk respectively. Overall findings provide support for the theoretical models which have a linked book to market effect with operating leverage. Thus, we conclude that investment activity risk seems to be the major factor that determines value premium.

Rasio adalah ukuran perbandingan antara pos dalam laporan keuangan dengan pos lainnya. Misalnya rasio profitabilitas yaitu Return on Asset makin tinggi ROA makin baik karena Net income makin tinngi. Demikian juga Debt to Equity ratio yaitu  berapa batasan berhutang yang ideal yaitu financial leverage berapa ukuran maksimal sehingga net income maksimal.Resiko sistematis atau Beta saham didapat dari slope hasil regresi antara ekses return saham dengan ekses pasar adalah ukuran resiko juga dalam berinvestasi saham . Resiko adalah hal yang menyimpang dari target yang kita inginkan atau sesuatu pencapaian yangberbeda dari hal atau sesuatu yang kita inginkan atau harapkan. Contoh Resiko berinvestasi adalah jika kita menderita kerugian atau kehilangan pokok yang kita tanankan. Resiko yang mempengaruhi saham di bursa yaitu bisa resikosistematik atau bisa juga resiko unsistematis atau resiko di dalam perusahaan misalnya manajemennya. Resiko sistematisjuga disebut resiko pasar yang menimpa semua saham seperti pengaruh dari luar yaitu inflasi, kurs mata uang atau kebijakan pemerintah.Penelitian ini akan membahas apakah ada pengaruh Debt to equity ratio dan beta saham/ resiko sistematis terhadap nilai ROA karena bagi perusahaan net income adalah penting juga bagi investor untuk membeli saham.Sampel datayang diambil penulis sebanyak 35 macam saham dengan cara mengambil secara acak saham-saham yang ada di Bursa efek Indonesia. Data sampel akan diolah dengan statistik menjadi informasi dalam menjawab permasalahan  dengan  Aplikasi SPSS edisi 19. Hasil penelitian ini yaitu secara bersama-sama variabel Debt to Equity ratio dengan Beta saham mempunyai pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap Return on Equity (ROA) perusahaan di Bursa Efek Indonesia Calculation of finance ratios is important for the company. Investors can view the performance of the company if the company performs well compared to the average industry. The ratio is a measure of the ratio between account in the financial statements with another accounts. For example profitability ratios Return on Assets( ROA) higher is better because Net income increasing. Likewise with Debt to Equity ratio, is how much restriction ideal loanlikethe ideal size of financial leverage to maximum net income. Beta is a systematic risk obtained from the slope of the regression results between excess stock returns with excess return of the capital market index. This is a measure of risk in stock investing. Risk is something that deviates from the target that we want or something less achievement from thing or something we want or expect. Examples of investment risk is if we suffer any loss of money  that we invest. Risks of invest stocks is a systematic risk or a unsystematis risk for examplelike a management in the company. Systematic risk is also called market risk hapend to all shares like outside influence,for example inflation, foreign exchange rates or government policy. This research will address the influence Debt to equity ratio and beta stocks / systematic risk to the value of Return of Asset (ROA) because for the company's net income is important for investors to decide buy shares. Sample data is retrieved author as many as 35 kinds of stocks by taking random stocks that exist in the Indonesian Stock Exchange.

This research is aimed at analyzing the causality puzzle on the correlation between financial leverage and systematic risk (beta). Financial leverage and beta are usually considered as two proxies of risk derived from different domains: one ends at financial decision outcome, and the other points to market. Cross-sectionally, this result does not support the moderating-variable impact of size on the relation between financial leverage and systematic risk. On the other hand, however, the moderating-variable impact of industry and operating leverage (to some extent) on the relation between financial leverage and systematic risk were well documented. Inter-temporally, financial leverage is significantly and symmetrically related to beta, not moderated by size and operating leverage. This means that the two variables show bidirectional causality. This study contributes to the new insight that financial leverage and beta are the two variables with bidirectional causality, showing that in the long run, risks from fundamental (financial/micro-economy) and from market (macro-economy) are tightly linked to each other inter-temporally.

This study empirically investigates the relationship between default risk and cross-section of stock returns in the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). Stock price data from all listed and delisted companies use to calculate monthly returns from 2001-2016. Ohlson's O-score is employed to measure exposure of firm to systematic deviation within bankruptcy risk. Besides, asset-pricing models like the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and Fama French (FF) models are employed. Portfolios are sorted in deciles by default probability. This result finds that stocks of firms significantly exposed to not diversified Default Risk yield higher returns. Besides that, the FF models explain cross-sectional stock returns since factors incorporate information on financial distress and default. After that, the book-to-market equity factor is not significant in elucidating returns of distressed firms because of market inefficiency. Results have practical implications for portfolio managers and investors of an emerging economy in developing diversified portfolios during periods of uncertainty and market volatility.JEL Classifications: G12, G15, G33How to Cite:Chhapra, I.

This research uses all of the listed electronic stocks in the Taiwan Stock Exchange as a sample to test the performance of the return rate of stock prices. In addition, this research compares it with the electronic stock returns. The empirical result shows that no matter which kind of stock selection strategy we choose, a majority of the return rate is higher than that of the electronics index. Evident in the results, the predicted effect of BPNN is better than that of the general average decentralized investment strategy. Furthermore, the low price-to-earning ratio and the low book-to-market ratio have a significant long-term influence.

The objective of this research is to investigate the relationship between illiquidity and stock prices on the Tunisian stock exchange. While previous researches tended to focus on one form of illiquidity to examine this relationship, our study unifies three forms of illiquidity at the same time. Indeed, we simultaneously consider illiquidity as systematic risk, as a characteristic of the market, and as a characteristic of the stock. The aggregate illiquidity of the market is the average of individual stock illiquidity. The illiquidity risk is the sensitivity of the stock price to illiquidity shocks. Shocks of market illiquidity are estimated by the innovations in the expected market illiquidity. Results show that investors on the Tunisian stock exchange do not require higher returns when they expect a rise of market illiquidity, whereas investors on U.S markets are compensated for higher expected market illiquidity. In addition, shocks of market illiquidity provoke a fall in stock prices of small caps, while large caps are not sensitive to market illiquidity shocks. This differs slightly from results based on U.S. data where illiquidity shocks reduce all stock prices but most notably those of small caps. Robustness tests validate our findings. Our results are consistent with previous studies which reported that the “zero-return” ratio predicts significantly the return-illiquidity relationship on emerging markets.

This study examines the impact of size premium and value premium on average return in emerging economies i.e. Pakistan, India and China equity markets for the period from June 2000 to June 2015 by using three factors model. This study predicts the significance and positive relationship between value premium(C/P Ratio) and stock return for all non-financial companies listed on Karachi stock exchange, Bombay stock exchange and Shanghai stock exchange on the basis of market Capitalization. The regression results of the study illustrate that size premium predict returns more for small firms than big firms while market premium found significantly positive with stock returns in Pakistan, India, and China. Value premium is found positive for all created portfolios. Therefore, it can be concluded that value effect is present in three emerging markets. High C/P ratio outperforms the low C/P ratio stocks. In this study C/P ratio (value premium) integrated with size and market premium to check whether it can predict stock returns of small and large firms for high or low C/P ratio. The finding is similar that the positive relationship of value premium and stock return and the negative relationship of size premium and stock return. The explanatory power of Fama and French three-factor model is greater than CAPM for all three equity markets, so, the asset pricing model can facilitate investors in efficient portfolio diversification for getting enhanced returns.
