Identifying Expectation Errors in Value/Glamour Strategies: A Fundamental Analysis ApproachJoseph D. PiotroskiStanford University - Graduate School of Business Eric C. SoMassachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) - Sloan School of Management May 9, 2012 Review of Financial Studies (RFS), Forthcoming Abstract: It is well established that value stocks outperform glamour stocks, yet considerable debate exists about whether the return differential reflects compensation for risk or mispricing. Under mispricing explanations, prices of glamour (value) firms reflect systematically optimistic (pessimistic) expectations; thus, the value/glamour effect should be concentrated (absent) among firms with (without) ex ante identifiable expectation errors. Classifying firms based upon whether expectations implied by current pricing multiples are congruent with the strength of their fundamentals, we document that value/glamour returns and ex post revisions to market expectations are predictably concentrated (absent) among firms with ex ante biased (unbiased) market expectations.
