Popis: In this paper, we investigate alpha testing for high-dimensional linear factor pricing models. We propose a spatial sign-based max-type test to handle sparse alternative cases. Additionally, we prove that this test is asymptotically independent of the spatial-sign-based sum-type test proposed by Liu et al. (2023). Based on this result, we introduce a Cauchy Combination test procedure that combines both the max-type and sum-type tests. Simulation studies and real data applications demonstrate that the new proposed test procedure is robust not only for heavy-tailed distributions but also for the sparsity of the alternative hypothesis.
