Tiivistelmä: | Merton (1987) shows that stocks about which not all investors are informed should yield a return premium which depends on the shadow cost of incomplete information which in turn depends on the shareholder base (here as: s-base), relative market size, and idiosyncratic risk (as: idc-r). Based on a comprehensive database of Swedish shareholdings, it is shown that stock returns are positively related to the shadow cost. It is also found that the s-base is negatively related to returns when controlling for size and idc-r. Zero-cost portfolios based on the shadow cost/s-base yield substantial trading profits being never positively correlated with the market and are only modestly explained by the four-factor model. |
