Popis: | Recent studies show that institutional investors as a whole group are not any different from naive investors in failing to benefit from the book-to-market anomaly. Furthermore, Jiang (2010) illustrates that institutional investors exacerbate the price overreaction contributing to the book-to-market effect. However, we find evidence for a drastic change in hedge funds’ behavior as they change their preferences from growth to value stocks immediately after the book-to-market values of stocks become public knowledge. More importantly, we show that hedge funds detect overpriced growth securities and trade them to their advantage especially when non-hedge funds move aggressively in the opposite direction. This is consistent with Miller (1977) in the sense that hedge funds are the informed investors. |
