abstract = {In this paper, we examine the Henriksson-Merton test of market
timing and its potential usefulness in evaluating investment
advice. The paper proposes a natural extension of the test that
is valid under more general assumptions about the distribution of
asset returns. We show that the Henriksson-Merton test and its
more general counterpart are special cases of standard tests of
market rationality and efficiency. Both tests are applied to a
group of foreign exchange advisory.},
