Description

We investigate whether an investor sentiment factor explains the cross-section of stock returns. The average return differential is 1.48% (0.75%) per month between the decile portfolios with the highest positive sentiment beta and that with negative sentiment beta. The sentiment factor, LMS, has statistically significant average returns of 1.71% per month, and shows a positive and statistically significant market price. The sentiment-augmented asset-pricing models explain the size effect, and conditional models often capture the size, value and momentum effects.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
