Abstract

We examine the dynamics of long-short factor returns on FOMC announcement days and the role of sentiment. We find that factor returns are negative on FOMC announcement days. Moreover, on these days returns are significantly lower following low sentiment periods. Hence, investor sentiment is a key driver of factor returns on FOMC days and this effect emanates mainly from the short portfolio leg of each factor.
