We propose a theoretically motivated factor model based on investor psychology and assess its ability to explain the cross-section of U.S. equity returns. Our factor model augments the market factor with two factors that capture long- and short-horizon mispricing. The long-horizon factor exploits the information in managers’ decisions to issue or repurchase equity in response to persistent mispricing. The short-horizon earnings surprise factor, which is motivated by investor inattention and evidence of short-horizon underreaction, captures short-horizon anomalies. This 3-factor risk-and-behavioral model outperforms other proposed models in explaining a broad range of return anomalies. (JEL G12, G14) Authors have furnished an Internet Appendix, which is available on the Oxford University Press Web site next to the link to the final published paper online.

Significance Risk and uncertainty are important in pricing climate damages. Despite a burgeoning literature, attempts to marry insights from asset pricing with climate economics have largely failed to supplement—let alone supplant—decades-old climate–economy models, largely due to their analytic and computational complexity. Here, we introduce a simple, modular framework that identifies core trade-offs, highlights the sensitivity of results to key inputs, and helps pinpoint areas for further work.

We model sequential bidding in a private value English auction when it is costly to submit or revise a bid. We show that, even when bid costs approach zero, bidding occurs in repeated jumps, consistent with certain types of natural auctions such as takeover contests. In contrast with most past models of bids as valuation signals, every bidder has the opportunity to signal and increase the bid by a jump. Jumps communicate bidders' information rapidly, leading to contests that are completed in a few bids. The model additionally predicts; informative delays in the start of bidding; that the probability of a second bid decreases in, and the jump increases in, the first bid; that objects are sold to the highest valuation bidder; and that revenue and efficiency relationships between different auctions hold asymptotically.

The last several decades have witnessed a shift away from a fully rational paradigm of financial markets toward one in which investor behavior is influenced by psychological biases. Two principal factors have contributed to this evolution: a body of evidence showing how psychological bias affects the behavior of economic actors; and an accumulation of evidence that is hard to reconcile with fully rational models of security market trading volumes and returns. In particular, asset markets exhibit trading volumes that are high, with individuals and asset managers trading aggressively, even when such trading results in high risk and low net returns. Moreover, asset prices display patterns of predictability that are difficult to reconcile with rational-expectations–based theories of price formation. In this paper, we discuss the role of overconfidence as an explanation for these patterns.

The book-to-market effect is often interpreted as evidence of high expected returns on stocks of "distressed" firms with poor past performance. We dispute this interpretation. We find that while a stock's future return is unrelated to the firm's past accounting-based performance, it is strongly negatively related to the "intangible" return, the component of its past return that is orthogonal to the firm's past performance. Indeed, the book-to-market ratio forecasts returns because it is a good proxy for the intangible return. Also, a composite equity issuance measure, which is related to intangible returns, independently forecasts returns. Copyright 2006 by The American Finance Association.

... Thus, psychological factors influence more on stock returns more, and more opportunities are created. The previous strategy was tested in the US market and had a quiet, pleasant result in explaining the stock returns by Daniel, Hirshleifer, and Sun [7]. However, the market situation in the US and different from that in China. ...

... Several studies show that risk factors explain stock returns (e.g., Fama and French, 1993, 1996. However, many studies argue that the variation in stock returns stems from behavioural biases (e.g., investor mood) rather than risk premiums (Barberis et al., 1998;Daniel et al., 2020;Daniel et al., 1998Daniel et al., , 2001Hirshleifer and Jiang, 2010). It is well documented in the psychology literature that mood affects decision-making, and people are more optimistic when they are in a good mood (e.g., Bagozzi et al., 1999;Wright and Bower, 1992); i.e., the number of sunshine hours (e.g., Eagles, 1994;Tietjen and Kripke, 1994), results of sporting events (Edmans et al., 2007), and music (Edmans et al., 2022) reflect people's mood and consequently affect stock market returns. ...

... Extant studies has been carried out on exploring the various biases exhibited by investors while making investment decisions in financial markets. The individual biases of investors were identified using stock market returns and trading data which included overreaction (Daniel, Hirshleifer, & Subrahmanyam, 1998)mental accounting (Tversky & Kahneman, 1973) heuristics (Kempf & Ruenzi, 2006;Kengatharan & Kengatharan, 2014) herding (Shiller, 2000;Shiller & Pound, 1989) er, in day to day and in complex situations, investors tend to use diverse criteria than using a single approach for investment decisions .The investor surveys examined the collective biases exhibited by the investors that impact their decisions (Hair, Ringle, & Sarstedt, 2011;Hu & Bentler, 1999;Lai et al., 2013;Lakshmi, Visalakshmi, Thamaraiselvan, & Senthilarasu, 2013;Shabgou & Mousavi, 2016;Waweru, Munyoki, & Uliana, 2008) proposed a conceptual framework comprising of the three constructs Contingent Scaffolding, Facile Affixation and Antecedent Aftermath which influence ...
