We find that the stock market underreacts to stock level liquidity shocks: liquidity shocks are not only positively associated with contemporaneous returns, but they also predict future return continuations for up to six months. Long-short portfolios sorted on liquidity shocks generate...

Institutional investors have increased their allocation to private assets to capture a potential return premium over public assets and diversification benefits. However, an allocation to private assets, which typically are less liquid than public assets, raises questions: “How does an...
