We suggest a procedure to predict individual stock liquidity and study the relation between stock liquidity forecasts … and average stock returns. Our forecast model reduces the root-mean-squared error by 12% for the Amihud (2002) liquidity … measure compared to realized stock liquidity in the previous month. Our liquidity forecasts capture economically large changes …

This paper studies the dynamics of stock market volatility and retail investor attention measured by internet search queries. We find a strong co-movement of stock market indices’ realized volatility and the search queries for their names. Furthermore, Granger causality is bi-directional: high...
