The extant literature has employed various methods to assess the presence of herding behavior, mobilizing variables such as the cross-sectional dispersion of returns and the cross-sectional dispersion of assets' sensitivities to the market (beta herding). However, these detection models may not exclusively detect herding behaviors. They may also identify rational reactions to the arrival of new information or changes in investors' risk-aversion. To test this proposition, we incorporate factors accounting for new information arrival and time-varying investors' risk-aversion in classical herding models. Our results do not provide support for the presence of herding behaviors in cryptocurrency markets; rather, they underscore the significant impact of informational and risk aversion factors in explaining the cross-sectional deviation of returns.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12167,"journal":{"name":"Finance Research Letters","volume":"85 ","pages":"Article 107915"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144613196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using an experiment, we study whether and why investors generalize a single robo-advisor’s performance more than that of a human financial advisor. Drawing on social categorization theory, we predict and find that investors perceive robo-advisors as more homogeneous than human financial advisors. This “all robo-advisors are the same” perception leads to greater transference of both success and failure across robo-advisors compared to human advisors.
