Many anomalies are based on firm characteristics and are rebalanced yearly, ignoring any information during the year. In this paper, we provide dynamic trading strategies to rebalance the anomaly portfolios monthly. For eight major anomalies, we find that these dynamic trading strategies...

We investigate the effect of ETF ownership on stock market anomalies and market efficiency. We find that low ETF ownership stocks exhibit higher returns, greater Sharpe ratios, and highly significant alphas in comparison to high ETF ownership stocks. We show that high ETF ownership stocks...

We find that anomaly returns are generally unchanged during FOMC days, though a small group of anomalies may have substantial changes. But if they do, their changes exacerbate pricing errors. Hence, our evidence challenges existing studies that find that the CAPM performs better over the FOMC...

Using a large hand-collected dataset, we provide novel evidence on the additional information embedded in the designs and graphs of financial reports. We find that firms that add graphic financial reports experience a positive 2.7% abnormal returns in the following 3 to 6 months. The finding...
