• Replicated seminal factor studies dealing with multi-asset premia using a uniform testing methodology over the original period 1981 – 2011.
• Applied the same uniform testing methodologies to extend their tests back to 1800
• Examined the relationships between style premia returns and common macroeconomic and financial risk factors to determine if any of the premia have compelling risk based explanations.
