摘要
We find that stocks with low investor attention show a more substantial return-idiosyncratic volatility puzzle than stocks with high investor attention. We also document that high idiosyncratic volatility stocks with high investor attention at the end of the month when portfolios are formed are responsible for the puzzle, but they lose investor attention and have negative returns at the beginning of the next month. We further show that the idiosyncratic volatility puzzle exists only in the first half of the following month after portfolios are formed. It holds even for stocks with low investor attention.
