Information Content When Mutual Funds Deviate from BenchmarksHao JiangErasmus University - Rotterdam School of Management Marno VerbeekErasmus University - Rotterdam School of Management; Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM); Netspar Yu WangIMC Financial Markets & Asset Management; Erasmus University - Rotterdam School of Management December 1, 2011 AFA 2012 Chicago Meetings Paper Abstract: A stock-level measure that aggregates the over- and underweighting decisions of actively managed mutual funds strongly and positively predicts future stock returns. The return premium on stocks heavily overweighted by mutual funds, relative to their underweighted counterparts, reaches more than 7% per year even after adjustments for their loadings on the market, size, value, momentum, and liquidity factors. A significant portion of this premium occurs around corporate earnings announcements. These results point to an informational link between active mutual fund investing and asset prices.
