Goodness of Fit and Model Selection Criteria Questions: Can R2 be negative? .Yes,this is possible.If Xt does not contain the intercept,then the orthog- onal decomposition identity x-Y)2=∑Y-)2+∑ t=1 =1 t=1 generally no longer holds.As a consequence,R2 may be negative when there is no intercept!This is because the cross-product term 2∑应-)et t=1 may be negative. When Xt contains an intercept,the centered R2 has a similar interpreta- tion to the uncentered R2.That is,R2 measures the proportion of the sample variance of {Yi that can be explained by the linear predictor of Xt.

Goodness of Fit and Model Selection Criteria Example 2.[Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)]: The classical CAPM is characterized by the equation Tit-rft=ai+Bi(rmt-rft)+Eit,t=1,...,n, where rit is the return on portfolio (or asset)i, -rft is the return on a risk-free asset, -rmt is the return on the market portfolio, rit-rft is the risk premium of portfolio i, -rmt-rft is the risk premium of the market portfolio,which is the only systematic market risk factor,and 一 eit is the idiosyncratic risk which can be eliminated by diversification if the eit are uncorrelated across different assets. In this model,R2 has an interesting economic interpretation:it is the proportion of the risk of portfolio i(as measured by the sample variance of its risk premium rit-rft)that is attributed to the market risk factor (rmt-rft).In contrast,1-R2 is the proportion of the risk of portfolio i that is contributed by the idiosyncratic risk factor eit.
