Book Synopsis Trading on Corporate Earnings News by : John Shon
Download or read book Trading on Corporate Earnings News written by John Shon and published by FT Press. This book was released on 2011-03-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Profit from earnings announcements, by taking targeted, short-term option positions explicitly timed to exploit them! Based on rigorous research and huge data sets, this book identifies the specific earnings-announcement trades most likely to yield profits, and teaches how to make these trades—in plain English, with real examples! Trading on Corporate Earnings News is the first practical, hands-on guide to profiting from earnings announcements. Writing for investors and traders at all experience levels, the authors show how to take targeted, short-term option positions that are explicitly timed to exploit the information in companies’ quarterly earnings announcements. They first present powerful findings of cutting-edge studies that have examined market reactions to quarterly earnings announcements, regularities of earnings surprises, and option trading around corporate events. Drawing on enormous data sets, they identify the types of earnings-announcement trades most likely to yield profits, based on the predictable impacts of variables such as firm size, visibility, past performance, analyst coverage, forecast dispersion, volatility, and the impact of restructurings and acquisitions. Next, they provide real examples of individual stocks–and, in some cases, conduct large sample tests–to guide investors in taking advantage of these documented regularities. Finally, they discuss crucial nuances and pitfalls that can powerfully impact performance.
Book Synopsis Option Strategies for Earnings Announcements by : Ping Zhou

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By trading on corporate earnings, investors can reliably profit in both up and down markets, while avoiding market risk for nearly the entire quarter. In this book, two leading traders and portfolio managers present specific, actionable techniques anyone can use to capture these sizable profits. Ping Zhou and John Shon have performed an unprecedented empirical analysis of thousands of stocks, reviewing tens of millions of data points associated with option prices, earnings announcement returns, and fundamentals. Their massive analysis has identified consistent opportunities associated with focusing on the magnitude of the market’s reaction to earnings, not its direction. Option Trading Set-Ups for Corporate Earnings News offers concrete guidance for improving the likelihood of making correct forecasts, and managing the risks of incorrect forecasts. It introduces several ways to exploit option trading opportunities around earnings news, discuss crucial issues that most retail investors haven’t considered, and explore aspects of earnings-related option trading that have never been empirically examined and documented before. For example, they identify hidden patterns and potential opportunities based on valuation, industry, volatility, analyst forecasts, seasonality, and trades that immediately follow earnings announcements. Simply put, trading on earnings reports offers immense profit opportunities, if you know how. This book provides incontrovertible facts and detailed strategies, not just theories and anecdotes!

Book Synopsis Stock Price Reaction to Quarterly Earnings Announcements with respect of outlook changes and deviation to consensus forecast by : Benjamin Schmitt
Download or read book Stock Price Reaction to Quarterly Earnings Announcements with respect of outlook changes and deviation to consensus forecast written by Benjamin Schmitt and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1.1, EBS European Business School gGmbH (Finance), language: English, abstract: Many authors have already studied about stock price reactions after earnings announcements yet, which is because of the importance of earnings announcements, in particular quarterly earnings announcements, for many investors. However, all major studies concerning this topic deal with long-term scenarios, the stock’s price performance is measured for a time period of at least three quarters. Due to the fact that there are many investors, especially institutional investors such as hedge funds that trade stocks much more frequently, the existing studies are not relevant for them. This paper studies stock price reactions around quarterly earnings announcements for companies listed in Deutscher Aktienindex (DAX) or Midcap DAX (MDAX) with respect to changes of the company’s full-year outlook and of earnings surprise regarding analyst consensus forecast within ten days before and after the announcement date. Hence, this paper aims to analyse short-term reaction to quarterly earnings announcements, which are of relevance for all investors, whose investment strategy is, at least partially, focussing on the short-term performance. The main target group of this analysis are therefore hedge funds and investors that run short-term strategies. Due to the fact that the widespread Event Study Methodology is focused on the long-term, it is irrelevant for this analysis.

You use an options trading strategy called a “straddle.”
Book Synopsis The Announcement Waiting Game by : Timothy Harindra De Silva
Download or read book The Announcement Waiting Game written by Timothy Harindra De Silva and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firms and asset pricing anomalies earn large returns around earnings announcements. This paper advances an explanation for this phenomenon based on holding costs, which are costs incurred by investors while maintaining an existing position. Since holding costs raise the marginal cost of holding a position, I hypothesize holding costs cause sophisticated investors to concentrate their positions in stocks and anomalies around earnings announcements, which subsequently induces concentration in price discovery around these announcements. This paper proposes empirical tests to identify (i) how holding costs influence the trading behavior of sophisticated investors and (ii) whether holding costs contribute to the concentration in returns around earnings releases through their effects on trading behavior. In sum, this paper hopes to highlight the importance of considering the objective function and constraints of the investors performing price discovery when studying the relationship between information releases and market outcomes.
Book Synopsis Anticipating Uncertainty by : Chao Gao
Download or read book Anticipating Uncertainty written by Chao Gao and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Straddles on individual stocks generally earn significantly negative returns. However, average at the money straddles from three days before an earnings announcement to the announcement date yield a highly significant 3.34% return. The positive returns on straddles indicate that investors under-estimate the magnitude of uncertainty around earnings announcements. We find positive straddle returns are more pronounced for smaller firms, firms with higher volatility, higher kurtosis, more volatile past earnings surprises and less trading volume/higher transaction costs. This suggests that when firm signals are noisy, and/or when it is costlier to trade, investors underestimate the uncertainty associated with earnings announcements.
Book Synopsis Naive Investors, Earnings Announcements, and Stock Price Movements by : Richard R. Mendenhall
Download or read book Naive Investors, Earnings Announcements, and Stock Price Movements written by Richard R. Mendenhall and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses the issue of whether investors with acirc;not;SnaAtilde;macr;veacirc;not;? earnings expectations (i.e., earnings forecasts that are systematically less accurate than other publicly available predictions) have sufficient market power to affect common stock prices. The results clearly indicate that when security analysts predict quarterly earnings increases (decreases), from the same fiscal quarter of the prior year, that the abnormal return around the upcoming earnings announcement tends to be positive. When the data are formed into 50 portfolios, about 66% of the abnormal return variation around earnings announcements is explained by the predicted earnings change. This is surprising since the forecasts used are dated from one to thirteen weeks before the earnings announcement.

Book Synopsis Institutional Trading Around Earnings Announcements by : Adrian Looi
Download or read book Institutional Trading Around Earnings Announcements written by Adrian Looi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study utilizes a unique database comprising the daily transactions of institutional Australian equity managers to examine whether active investment managers realize abnormal returns from earnings announcements, the nature of the trading strategies employed to generate these abnormal returns, and the magnitude of abnormal returns. We examine three strategies. First, whether fund managers realize abnormal returns from earnings announcements portfolio positions that most likely reflect fundamental analysis. Second, whether fund managers realize abnormal returns from trades immediately prior to the announcement, which most likely reflect short term-profiteering due to information leakage. Third, we examine whether fund managers realize abnormal returns from trades during the announcement period that most likely reflect superior interpretation of the actual earnings announcement. We find that fund managers realize abnormal returns from all three strategies. In addition, we also examine whether fund managers are rational in constructing their trading strategies, and find no evidence of the disposition effect. When investment managers have executed incorrect bets prior to earnings announcements, they subsequently reverse their trades once the public information is released.
Book Synopsis Investors' Trade Size and Trading Responses Around Earnings Announcements by : Neil Bhattacharya
Download or read book Investors' Trade Size and Trading Responses Around Earnings Announcements written by Neil Bhattacharya and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior research suggests that the earnings expectations of a segment of the market can be described by the seasonal random-walk model. Prior research also provides evidence that less wealthy and less informed investors tend to make smaller trades (small traders) than wealthier and better informed investors (large traders).I hypothesize that it is the earnings expectations of small traders that are associated with predictions from the seasonal random-walk model. By directly analyzing the trading activities of small and large traders, this study provides evidence that is largely consistent with the hypotheses.Specifically, small traders' trading response around earnings announcements is increasing in the magnitude of seasonal random-walk forecast errors even after controlling for absolute analyst forecast errors, contemporaneous price changes, and market-wide trading. Supplementary analysis reveals that this effect is largely confined to firms with relatively impoverished information environments (i.e., smaller firms and firms with little to moderate analyst following).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies whether individual investors have information advantage before earnings announcements on an emerging market using a unique data set of TWSE. Consistent with existing research on American market, it is surprising that pre-event individual investor trading is also positively correlated with stock returns on and after earnings announcements dates in Taiwan. However, the sign of correlation between individual investor trading and stock return around earnings announcements shows weak evidence of noise trading rather than information advantage, which is opposite to that of American stock market.

Book Synopsis Investment Intelligence from Insider Trading by : H. Nejat Seyhun
Download or read book Investment Intelligence from Insider Trading written by H. Nejat Seyhun and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2000-02-28 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to profit from information about insider trading. The term insider trading refers to the stock transactions of the officers, directors, and large shareholders of a firm. Many investors believe that corporate insiders, informed about their firms' prospects, buy and sell their own firm's stock at favorable times, reaping significant profits. Given the extra costs and risks of an active trading strategy, the key question for stock market investors is whether the publicly available insider-trading information can help them to outperform a simple passive index fund. Basing his insights on an exhaustive data set that captures information on all reported insider trading in all publicly held firms over the past twenty-one years—over one million transactions!—H. Nejat Seyhun shows how investors can use insider information to their advantage. He documents the magnitude and duration of the stock price movements following insider trading, determinants of insiders' profits, and the risks associated with imitating insider trading. He looks at the likely performance of individual firms and of the overall stock market, and compares the value of what one can learn from insider trading with commonly used measures of value such as price-earnings ratio, book-to-market ratio, and dividend yield.
