Description

This paper studies dividend growth predictability without restricting the conditioning information set to dividend yield alone. We highlight that predictability crucially hinges on how dividend growth is constructed. While there is little predictability in the market-reinvested dividend growth, the pure dividend growth is significantly predictable both in-sample and out-of-sample by a number of economic fundamentals. This strong pure dividend growth predictability leads to improved equity premium prediction under the present-value framework.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
