evRisk | R Documentation |
Conduct a risk analysis by firm and evaluate the change of risk before and after an event. The model used is the Captial Asset Pricing Model.
evRisk(x, m = 50, r.free = "tbill", ...)
x |
a object from |
m |
the number of days before and after the event date for estimating CAPM. |
r.free |
the column name of risk free asset in |
... |
additional arguments to be passed. |
This fits CAPM for each firm and reports the statistics for alpha, beta, and gamma. The statistics of gamma reveal the change of risk before and after the event.
Return a list object of class "evReturn" with the following components:
x |
a object from |
daEst |
data used to estimate CAPM for the last firm as specified in |
rb |
fitted CAPM for the last firm. |
