Sorry for the late response. This error occurs by some unexpected situation. The dataset provided by Prof. Xiu is somehow updated. If possible, you may find another data source to obtain the excess ret.
@xiaotantanwo You can download monthly returns (CRSP) at WRDS webpage. This is a permno code list for experiments in this paper permno.txt. You can upload this txt file at WRDS to download stocks corresponding to the permno code.
Downloading the dataset provided in the readme file, an error occurred during data preprocessing indicating the absence of the RET column in the dataset. How should this be resolved?
