Thе cаpitаl аssеt pricing mоdеl (CAPM) does not completely capture non-diversifiable risk beyond the second co-moment (co-skewness and co-kurtosis), and thus, results in its empirical failures. Fama-French argue that nonmarket risk factors are priced and propose a three-factor model that includes a size factor, SMB, and a value factor, HML, in addition to the market factor. The Carhart’s model that includes a momentum factor, WML, in addition to the Fama-French’s factors.
