讲座简介:We investigate whether management earnings forecasts reflect the biases captured by anomaly signals and subsequent implications for capital market efficiency. We discover that management earnings forecasts are more pessimistic for stocks that are undervalued based on anomaly signals, suggesting anomaly signals capture biases in managers' forecasts. Furthermore, the biases in management forecasts are more severe than those in analyst forecasts. The findings are stronger when managers are overconfident and when they make long-term forecasts, and during high sentiment periods, but not influenced by the trading activities of insiders or firms. This suggests that behavioral issues, rather than strategic manipulation, drive the biases in management forecasts. Moreover, the biases in management forecasts are predominantly captured by underreaction and short-term anomalies. Finally, anomaly returns are significantly amplified and prolonged when managers issue forecasts that are inconsistent with the anomaly signals, suggesting these forecasts exacerbate the errors in investor expectation of future cash flowing.
