... sample construction, alternative name classifications and outlier-robust methods. My analysis finds that the original result is sensitive to a small number of extreme observations and classification decisions. This highlights how routine empirical choices can affect replicability and inference...

...Nicolas P.B. Bollen; Juha Joenväärä; Mikko Kauppila This paper successfully replicates Kosowski, Naik and Teo (2007) and Jagannathan, Malakhov and Novikov (2010), two seminal studies of hedge fund performance persistence.

... an independent replication and two out-of-sample tests with three datasets (US 1964 to 1999, US 2000 to 2016, and Japan 1978 to 2012), six versions of the LCAPM, and eight test portfolios. We first consider the “one-variable LCAPM test” for the intercept, the illiquidity cost effect, and the net liquidity risk...
