Manager Sentiment and Stock Returns

主讲人

Fuwei Jiang

简介

<p>In this paper, we construct a manager sentiment index based on the aggregated textual tone of conference calls and financial statements. We find that manager sentiment is a strong negative predictor of future aggregate stock market returns, with monthly in sample and out-of-sample R2 of 9.75% and 8.38%, respectively, which is far greater than the predictive power of other previously-studied macroeconomic variables. Its predictive power is also stronger than and is complimentary to the popular investor sentiment indexes. Moreover, manager sentiment also negatively predicts future aggregate earnings and cross-sectional stock returns, particularly for those firms that are either hard to value or difficult to arbitrage.</p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2662288" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/<wbr></wbr>papers.cfm?abstract_id=2662288</a></p> <div>&nbsp;</div>
