  • Do Fund Managers Identify and Share Profitable Ideas?1
    Do Fund Managers Identify and Share Profitable Ideas?1 by Wesley R. Gray2 and Andrew E. Kern3 ABSTRACT We study data from an organization where fundamentals-based fund managers privately share investment ideas. Evidence suggests the professional investors in our sample have stock-picking skills. A strategy of going long (short) buy (sell) recommendations earns monthly calendar-time abnormal returns of 1.38% (- 2.91%) over the January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2008 sample period. Interestingly, these skilled investors share their profitable ideas. We test predictions from private information sharing theories and determine that our sample investors share ideas to receive constructive feedback, gain access to a broader set of actionable ideas, and to attract additional arbitrager capital to their asset market.

    12 May 16, 2006 THE RETRIEVER WEEKLY Arts & Entertainment Pearl Jam returns to their roots The semester is just about over, seniors are graduating (congratulations!), and many students are making their plans for the summer. Some students will vacation at the beach, move back in with their families, or even use their time to travel overseas. Quite a few students will also be looking for jobs and internships to gain experience, a little extra money, or both. Other students may not have even started their job search for the summer, and upon reading this article, may suddenly have a sinking feeling in the pit of their stomach. There is some good news though; it’s not too late to get a summer internship position! The Shriver Center has lots of opportunities for students in all majors, and can help students find a summer position that is relevant to their major where they can earn credit and get paid at the same time. Many academic departments at UMBC offer courses that coincide with internship experience and are geared toward students earning credit for internships. The Shriver Center also provides students the opportunity to convert their current jobs into a credit-bearing internship. If a summer job relates to a student’s area of study, and if the job provides opportunities to use skills students learned in the classroom in a hands-on [amazon.com] Back to Basics: Pearl Jam’s new record will please fans. nature, then chances are it’s a position that can be converted to an internship for credit.
