      Value-weighted indexes must rebalance in response to stock market composition changes, e.g., issuance, buybacks, and IPOs. In doing so, existing index funds implicitly engage in market timing. Index funds’ long-short rebalancing portfolios have a -3.5% annual return... View Details

      Bank Financing of Global Supply Chains

      By: Laura Alfaro, Mariya Brussevich, Camelia Minoiu and Andrea Presbitero
