报告摘要
Traditional asset pricing theory posits a positive risk-return relation while empirical studies find a negative relation between risk and expected returns. In this paper, we find that the risk-return relation is negative among stocks with prices far from their 52-week high prices while positive among stocks with prices near their 52-week high prices. We argue that anchoring on the psychological barrier of 52-week extreme prices leads to such cross-sectional heterogeneity in the risk-return trade-off.We also consider several explanations but none of them are empirically supported. Overall, our results provide a new psychological perspective to understand the risk-return trade-off.
