Abstract:     
This paper develops a novel approach to simultaneously test for market timing in stock index returns and volatility. The tests are based on the estimation of a system of regression equations with indicator variables and provide detailed information about the statistical significance of alternative market timing components.

Keywords: market timing, predictability of stock returns and volatility, nonparametric test
