This research aims to investigate within the scope of the Brazilian stock market the cause and effect relationship between the accounting rate-of-return (ROE) and the return of the stock market (RET) in Brazil. Analyzes temporal precedence and looks for evidence on predictive capacity. The study is based on an empirical investigation of the cause and effect relationship between the accounting rate-of-return (ROE) and the stock market return (RET), using the Granger causality test. The sample for the study is formed with the data of the companies listed on the BM&FBovespa from 1995 to 2009 in quarterly frequency extracted from the Economática database. The results indicate that, in general, there is no evidence of causality between RET and ROE in either direction. It is not possible to indicate in these cases temporal precedence. This demonstrates the low power of improvement of the forecast variance with the inclusion of one of the variables.
