    Market Liquidity as a Sentiment Indicator

    By: Malcolm Baker and Jeremy Stein
    We build a model that helps to explain why increases in liquidity—such as lower bid–ask spreads, a lower price impact of trade, or higher turnover—predict lower subsequent returns in both firm-level and aggregate data. The model features a class of irrational... View Details

    The Cheater's High: The Unexpected Affective Benefits of Unethical Behavior

    By: N. E. Ruedy, C. Moore, F. Gino and M. Schweitzer
    Many theories of moral behavior assume that unethical behavior triggers negative affect. In this paper, we challenge this assumption and demonstrate that unethical behavior can trigger positive affect, which we term a "cheater's high." Across six studies, we find that... View Details
