| Tiivistelmä: | It is shown in this paper that the puzzling negative cross-sectional relation btw. dispersion in analysts' earnings forecasts and future stock returns may be explained by financial distress. Focusing on a sample of firms rated by Standard & Poor's (S&P), it is shown that the profitability of dispersion-based trading strategies concentrates in a small number of the worst-rated firms, being significant only during periods of deteriorating credit conditions etc. The results are robust to previously proposed explanations for the dispersion effect, e.g. short-sale constraints and leverage. |
