This research introduces a novel constraint-based model framework for predicting risk premiums, thoroughly examining the mechanism and limitations of existing models in the literature and leveraging advanced machine learning techniques. The proposed framework effectively captures the regime-dependent forecasting characteristics. It incorporates the information content of predictive regression, “naive” historical average model, and zero value model, significantly reducing model uncertainty and parameter instability across univariate and multivariate predictions. Empirical analysis demonstrates the superiority of our strategy in terms of out-of-sample forecasting performance over a variety of competing models and under different market conditions, highlighting the robustness of our results. We further substantiate the validity of considering the market regime as an economic state variable and justify the rationality of our constraint-based model in elucidating the source of the improved predictability. Our study holds significant implications for financial and economic research, as well as practical applications in portfolio management and risk assessment.
本研究引入了一种新的基于约束的模型框架来预测风险溢价,彻底检查了文献中现有模型的机制和局限性,并利用了先进的机器学习技术。所提出的框架有效地捕获了依赖于政权的预测特征。它结合了预测回归、“朴素”历史平均模型和零值模型的信息内容,显著降低了单变量和多变量预测的模型不确定性和参数不稳定性。实证分析证明了我们的策略在样本外预测性能方面优于各种竞争模型和不同市场条件下的优势,突出了我们结果的稳健性。我们进一步证实了将市场制度视为经济状态变量的有效性,并证明了我们基于约束的模型在阐明提高可预测性的来源方面的合理性。我们的研究对金融和经济研究以及投资组合管理和风险评估的实际应用具有重要意义。

Tick size and firm financing decisions: Evidence from a natural experiment 蜱虫大小和公司融资决策:来自自然实验的证据
IF 2.4 2区 经济学 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-08-25 DOI: 10.1016/j.jempfin.2025.101651

Using the SEC’s 2016 Tick Size Pilot Program (TSPP) as a natural experiment, we investigate the effects of a tick size increase on firms’ choice of equity versus debt financing. We find that after the program’s implementation, TSPP-affected firms show a significant increase in equity issuance relative to that of debt. This finding is consistent with a reduction in adverse selection in equity financing due to more acquisition of fundamental information by these firms’ investors. In support of this inference, we show that the increase is concentrated among firms with investors that increase their information acquisition. We also find that the effect is more pronounced for firms that, prior to the program, have a higher level of concern about adverse selection in equity financing. Our study offers the novel insight that a tick size increase can affect firms’ financing choices because the increased tick size generates incentives for investors to acquire more fundamental information.
利用美国证券交易委员会(SEC) 2016年Tick Size Pilot Program (TSPP)作为自然实验,我们研究了Tick Size增加对公司选择股权融资与债务融资的影响。我们发现,在该计划实施后,受tspp影响的企业发行的股票相对于债券有显著的增加。这一发现与股权融资中逆向选择的减少是一致的,因为这些公司的投资者获得了更多的基本信息。为了支持这一推论,我们表明这种增长集中在有投资者的公司中,这些公司增加了他们的信息获取。我们还发现,对于那些在实施该计划之前对股权融资中的逆向选择有较高关注程度的公司来说,这种影响更为明显。我们的研究提供了一个新颖的见解,即滴答大小的增加会影响公司的融资选择,因为滴答大小的增加会激励投资者获取更多的基本信息。

Behavioral biases, information frictions and interest rate expectations 行为偏差、信息摩擦和利率预期

We use expectations of the short rate inferred from the term structure of interest rates to test several well-known models of behavioral biases and information frictions. We classify signals about future short rates by their cost of acquisition and find evidence of overreaction to high-cost signals and underreaction to low-cost signals, providing support for the overconfidence bias. We show that our results are unlikely to be driven by time-varying risk premia. The biases are so large that the market’s forecast errors are larger at all horizons than for forecasts obtained by assuming that the short rate follows a random walk.
我们使用从利率期限结构推断的短期利率预期来测试几个著名的行为偏差和信息摩擦模型。我们根据获取成本对有关未来短期利率的信号进行分类,并找到对高成本信号反应过度和对低成本信号反应不足的证据,为过度自信偏见提供支持。我们表明,我们的结果不太可能受到时变风险溢价的驱动。偏差如此之大,以至于市场在所有视界上的预测误差都大于假设短期利率遵循随机游走的预测。

Portfolio selection, faced with large volatile data sets of strongly correlated asset returns, is prone to unstable portfolio weights and serious estimation error. To attenuate this problem, our work proposes a new latent factor model equipped with both a suitable robust estimator to deal with cellwise data contamination and a diagonally-dominant (DD) covariance structure to account for cross-sectional dependence among residual returns. The proposed robust DD model is found to compare favorably with various competitors from the literature in terms of out-of-sample portfolio performance across real-world data sets.
投资组合选择面对的是由资产收益强相关的大量波动数据集,容易产生不稳定的投资组合权重和严重的估计误差。为了减轻这个问题,我们的工作提出了一个新的潜在因素模型,该模型配备了一个合适的鲁棒估计器来处理单元数据污染,以及一个对角主导(DD)协方差结构来解释剩余收益之间的横截面依赖性。在真实世界数据集的样本外投资组合表现方面,发现所提出的鲁棒DD模型与文献中的各种竞争对手相比具有优势。

High frequency online inflation and term structure of interest rates: Evidence from China 高频在线通货膨胀与利率期限结构:来自中国的证据
IF 2.1 2区 经济学 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-05-23 DOI: 10.1016/j.jempfin.2025.101626

In the digital era, the information value of online prices, characterized by weak price stickiness and high sensitivity to economic shocks, deserves more attention. This paper integrates the high-frequency online inflation rate into the dynamic Nelson-Siegel (DNS) model to explore its relationship with the term structure of interest rates. The empirical results show that the weekly online inflation significantly predicts the yield curve, especially the slope factor, whereas the monthly official inflation cannot predict the yield curve and is instead predicted by the yield curve factors. The mechanism analysis reveals that, due to low price stickiness, online inflation is more sensitive to short-term economic fluctuations and better reflects money market liquidity, thereby having significant predictive power for short-term interest rates and the slope factor. Specifically, online inflation for non-durable goods and on weekdays shows stronger predictive power for the slope factor. The heterogeneity in price stickiness across these categories explains the varying impacts on the yield curve.
在数字时代,网络价格具有价格粘性弱、对经济冲击高度敏感的特点,其信息价值值得更多关注。本文将高频在线通货膨胀率整合到动态Nelson-Siegel (DNS)模型中,探讨其与利率期限结构的关系。实证结果表明,每周在线通货膨胀率显著预测收益率曲线,尤其是斜率因子,而月度官方通货膨胀率不能预测收益率曲线,而是由收益率曲线因子预测。机制分析表明,由于价格粘性较低,在线通货膨胀对短期经济波动更敏感,更能反映货币市场流动性,因此对短期利率和斜率因子具有显著的预测能力。具体而言,非耐用品和工作日的在线通货膨胀对斜率因子显示出更强的预测能力。这些类别之间价格粘性的异质性解释了对收益率曲线的不同影响。

Improving information leadership share for measuring price discovery 提高衡量价格发现的信息领导份额
IF 2.4 2区 经济学 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-08-26 DOI: 10.1016/j.jempfin.2025.101638

We propose an improvement to the information leadership (IL) measure of price discovery of Yan and Zivot (2010), and the information leadership share (ILS) measure of Putniņš (2013). Our improved PIL and PILS measures integrate the price discovery share (PDS) of Shen et al. (2024) with the component share (CS) measure. Our improved PIL measure accurately reflects the ratio of initial responses of competing markets to a permanent shock in the presence of correlated reduced-form vector error correction model residuals, thereby substantially generalizing the IL measure for practical applications. Simulation evidence strongly supports the superiority of our improved PIL measure over a wide spectrum of existing price discovery metrics (Lien and Shrestha, 2009; Putniņš, 2013; Sultan and Zivot, 2015; Patel et al., 2020). We demonstrate the effectiveness of our improved measure by examining price discovery for various Chinese stocks cross-listed in Shanghai and Hong Kong (SH-HK) both before and after the initiation of the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect.
我们提出了对Yan和Zivot(2010)的价格发现的信息领导(IL)度量和Putniņš(2013)的信息领导份额(ILS)度量的改进。我们改进的PIL和PIL指标将Shen等人(2024)的价格发现份额(PDS)与组件份额(CS)指标相结合。我们改进的PIL测量准确地反映了在相关的简化形式矢量误差校正模型残差存在的情况下,竞争市场的初始反应与永久冲击的比率,从而在实际应用中大大推广了IL测量。模拟证据有力地支持了我们改进的PIL措施优于现有价格发现指标的广泛范围(Lien和Shrestha, 2009; Putniņš, 2013; Sultan和Zivot, 2015; Patel等人,2020)。我们通过研究沪港通启动前后在上海和香港交叉上市的各种中国股票(SH-HK)的价格发现来证明我们改进措施的有效性。

Strategic implications of corporate disclosure via Twitter 通过Twitter进行企业信息披露的战略意义
IF 2.1 2区 经济学 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-06-23 DOI: 10.1016/j.jempfin.2025.101635

We investigate the information and strategic aspects of corporate tweets. Despite limits on message length, tweets stimulate information acquisition by investors, as indicated by post-tweet downloads from the SEC-EDGAR website. Corporations appear to be effective at leveraging tweets to enhance their information environment. Specifically, tweets are associated with reduction in firms’ earnings surprise and stock return volatility. There is a decrease in negative skewness of stock returns, suggesting a more uniform release of favorable and unfavorable news, especially in high litigation industries. These effects are more evident when the CEO has greater equity incentives and when firms are smaller and less visible.
我们调查了企业推文的信息和战略方面。尽管消息长度有限制,但推文刺激了投资者的信息获取,这一点从SEC-EDGAR网站的推文后下载量可以看出。企业似乎能够有效地利用微博来改善他们的信息环境。具体而言,推文与公司盈利意外和股票回报波动性的降低有关。股票收益负偏度下降,利好和负面消息的发布更加统一,特别是在高诉讼行业。当首席执行官拥有更大的股权激励,以及公司规模较小、知名度较低时,这些影响更为明显。

On the profitability of influential carry-trade strategies: Data-snooping bias and post-publication performance 有影响力的套息交易策略的盈利能力:数据窥探偏差与发表后绩效

This study examines whether 13 influential carry-trade strategies retain profitability after being published in the academic literature. We first implement several bootstrap methods to correct for the presence of data snooping and find that the pre-publication profitability of these strategies is not due to selection bias, demonstrating their original capacity to exploit market inefficiencies. On the other hand, their profitability has declined since their publication years. Our empirical evidence suggests that, although academic researchers may sometimes uncover market anomalies, their publication reduces inefficiencies in currency markets.
本研究考察了13种有影响力的套利交易策略在发表学术文献后是否仍能保持盈利能力。我们首先实施了几种bootstrap方法来纠正数据窥探的存在,并发现这些策略的出版前盈利能力不是由于选择偏差,证明了它们利用市场低效率的原始能力。另一方面,自出版以来,它们的盈利能力有所下降。我们的经验证据表明,尽管学术研究人员有时可能会发现市场异常,但他们的发表减少了货币市场的低效率。

Bear factor and hedge fund performance 熊市因素与对冲基金业绩
IF 2.1 2区 经济学 Q2 BUSINESS, FINANCE Pub Date : 2025-06-01 Epub Date: 2025-03-20 DOI: 10.1016/j.jempfin.2025.101611

We find that hedge funds that have low (negative) return covariance with the return of a bear spread portfolio (i.e., Bear factor) after controlling for the market factor, earn significantly higher returns in the cross-section. The return spread does not reflect bear risk premia; instead, it represents a low risk-high return relation. We decompose the Bear factor into different components to identify the one driving the bear beta effect on fund performance and show that the return spread can be attributed to the differential ability of low bear beta funds to reduce their market exposures when the market declines and the VIX increases (i.e., downside timing). Further analysis suggests that these fund managers are more skilled at selling overpriced insurance during volatile market periods. Overall, we propose a simple option-implied predictor of hedge fund returns and unravel a novel economic mechanism that associates the Bear factor exposure with fund performance.
我们发现,在控制了市场因素后,对冲基金与熊市价差投资组合(即熊市因素)的收益协方差较低(负)的对冲基金在横截面上的收益显著较高。收益差不能反映风险溢价;相反,它代表了一种低风险-高回报关系。我们将熊市因素分解为不同的组成部分,以确定驱动熊市贝塔效应对基金业绩的因素,并表明收益差可归因于低熊市贝塔基金在市场下跌和VIX上升时(即下行时机)减少市场敞口的不同能力。进一步的分析表明,这些基金经理更善于在市场波动时期出售定价过高的保险。总体而言,我们提出了一个简单的期权隐含预测对冲基金收益的方法,并揭示了一个新的经济机制,将贝尔斯登因素暴露与基金业绩联系起来。

Overall, we propose a simple option-implied predictor of hedge fund returns and unravel a novel economic mechanism that associates the Bear factor exposure with fund performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Empirical Finance","volume":"82 ","pages":"Article 101611"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143705250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper examines the relationship between a firm's long-term managerial orientation and in-firm pay inequality. We exploit two exogenous shocks to firms’ long-term orientation, in the form of inheritance and estate tax changes in Taiwan in 2008 and 2017. Using over a decade's worth of pay inequality data, we demonstrate that a more (less) long-term managerial orientation in a firm, driven by decreases (increases) in estate tax, leads to an increase (decrease) of in-firm pay inequality. Further analysis suggests that changes in-firm pay inequality are associated with changes in executive compensation, rather than with changes in ordinary employee compensation. Furthermore, our results are more pronounced in firms with higher degrees of family ownership and firms in more competitive industries. This paper suggests policy implications for amendments to estate tax since in-firm pay inequality will increase as a result of decreases in estate tax, via effects on firms’ long-term managerial orientation.
本文考察了企业长期管理取向与企业内部薪酬不平等之间的关系。我们利用2008年和2017年台湾遗产税和遗产税变化对企业长期导向的两个外生冲击。利用十多年来的薪酬不平等数据,我们证明了在遗产税的减少(增加)驱动下,企业中更(更少)长期的管理导向会导致企业内薪酬不平等的增加(减少)。进一步的分析表明,企业内部薪酬不平等的变化与高管薪酬的变化有关,而与普通员工薪酬的变化无关。此外,我们的结果在家族所有权程度较高的公司和竞争更激烈的行业中更为明显。本文提出了修改遗产税的政策含义,因为遗产税的减少会通过对企业长期管理取向的影响而增加企业内部薪酬不平等。
