While adverse health effects of ambient air pollution have been well documented, there is scarce evidence on the impact of household air pollution (HAP) on mental health. We investigated the causal link between HAP exposure from the use of solid fuel on depressive symptoms using a nationally...

Measuring the information environment of firms using analyst (price) forecast bias and forecast dispersion before listing, we empirically examine the interactive influence of the information environment and market-wide sentiment on the initial returns of initial public offerings (IPOs). We find...

This paper studies the predictive power of the trend strategy in the international stock market. Using data from 49 markets, we find that a trend signal exploiting the short-, intermediate-, and long-term price information can predict stock returns cross-sectionally in the international market....

Signs of the gender gap are ubiquitous in society. Psychological theory suggests that when gender stereotypes are associated with competition, men exert greater effort against women (dominance effect) and women exert less effort against men (submissive effect), which implies that women are at a...

We study how derivatives (with nonlinear payoffs) affect the liquidity of the underlying asset. In a rational expectations equilibrium, informed investors expect low conditional volatility and sell derivatives to the others. These derivative trades affect investors’ utility differently,...

This study investigates the impact of managerial myopia on corporate financialization based on the upper echelons and time orientation theories. We examine a sample of 20,914 Chinese A-share non-financial enterprises from 2007 to 2019. The results indicate that managerial myopia can improve the...
