    Three-factor model and ~90% result are from the 1993 paper, not 1992

    Before

    Fama and French's three-factor model (1992)

    After

    Fama and French's three-factor model (1993)

    Why: Verified fix already fully applied in article body. The references list separately cites Fama & French's 1992 paper 'The Cross-Section of Expected Stock Returns' (Journal of Finance), which is a genuine, distinct paper from the 1993 three-factor model paper -- not a leftover of the fabrication. No issues found in FAQ.
