Next, we define a new type of efficient returns that is characterized by those unconditional properties. We also study a different type of efficient returns that is rationalized by standard mean-variance preferences and motivates new Sharpe ratios and Jensen s alphas. We revisit the testable implications of asset pricing models from the perspective of the three sets of efficient returns. We also revisit the empirical evidence on the conditional variants of the CAPM and the Fama-French model from a portfolio perspective.application/pdfengL'accés als continguts d'aquest document queda condicionat a l'acceptació de les condicions d'ús establertes per la següent llicència Creative CommonsUnderstanding portfolio efficiency with conditioning informationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperconditional capmdynamic portfolio strategiesjensen's alphamean-variance frontiersrepresenting portfoliossharpe ratioFinance and Accountinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
