We examine the causal effect of limits to arbitrage on 11 well-known asset pricing anomalies using the pilot program of Regulation SHO, which relaxed short-sale constraints for a quasi-random set of pilot stocks, as a natural experiment. We find that the anomalies became weaker on portfolios...

In times when short-term policy rates are at or near the zero lower bound, central banks use unconventional policies such as forward guidance and quantitative easing to influence the slope of the yield curve. In this paper, we analyze the dynamic responses of key U.S. macroeconomic variables to...
