We argue alternating liquidity exposures depict two distinct investment preferences-hedging against aggregate … liquidity risk or betting on it. A three-factor model capturing these return variations is developed. Results show that our …

A recent theory of information uncertainty (IU) postulates a negative (positive) relationship between IU and future returns (momentum returns). We extend this theory by showing that its predictions could be conditioned by differences in behavioral biases induced by culture. We find that greater...

Four new prominent asset pricing factors have recently been proposed. We test whether these factors fulfill necessary conditions for qualifying those as risk factors. We show that the investment and betting-against-beta factors fulfill these conditions. However, the profitability and quality...
