In our previous blog post, we reviewed evidence from our recent paper that returns for asset classes do not evolve completely…

The Dodge Charger, initially a luxurious four seater fastback, transformed into a classic muscle car in 1968. However, as the muscle car era waned, the Charger underwent a significant redesign in 1971, featuring “fuselage” sheet metal. This generation continued production until 1974.
