To address this question, we employ TopicGPT, a prompt-based framework for topic modeling powered by large language models. By analyzing over 238,000 corporate earnings calls and 4300 Federal Reserve speeches over the period from 2002 to 2023, we combine microeconomic and macroeconomic perspectives to forecast key measures of financial stability. TopicGPT’s ability to generate interpretable and tailored topics improves predictions for systemic risk measures, such as the National Financial Conditions Index and a capital shortfall, outperforming traditional models, particularly for long-term horizons. The two data sources complement each other: earnings calls provide dynamic, firm-specific insights critical for short-term forecasts, while Fed speeches highlight systemic risks, offering a long-term perspective. Together, they identify critical themes – such as economic conditions, debt management, and the housing market – and enable real-time risk assessment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48460,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Banking & Finance","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 107598"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145712143","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}

We assess common heuristics such as allocating 100 minus age to stocks, contributing 6–10% of income to a 401k, and withdrawing only the required minimum distribution (RMD) in retirement. Target-date rules lead to moderate welfare losses, with one-time compensating variations ranging from $59–$2514 for 401k allocation and $66–$873 for other savings. Contribution rules cause smaller losses ($22–$772), reflecting the importance of the 401k matching incentives. Withdrawing only the RMD leads to substantial welfare losses, ranging between $1321–$9919 from the perspective of a 66-year-old. But a hybrid rule—taking the maximum of a fixed percentage and the RMD—generates welfare losses about half as large as those associated with the RMD rule. We also compare these rules to more clearly suboptimal behaviors, such as avoiding the stock market, delaying saving, or contributing below the matching threshold. In these cases, rules of thumb look far more attractive, often avoiding substantial welfare losses. Overall, we find mixed support for the effectiveness of rules of thumb. While the welfare losses associated with such rules are modest, there may be substantial benefits to more detailed financial planning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48460,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Banking & Finance","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 107619"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145885274","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}

Numerical results show that DeFi insurance can complement or replace traditional coverage, improving welfare when basis and default risks are moderate or pricing advantages are substantial.

The relation between folklore narratives and IPO pricing is independent of indicators of trust, religion, culture, societal preferences, or institutional democracy. This relation is weaker in countries with a more transparent information environment and following reforms that improve disclosure and corporate governance. Folklore narratives on punishment for antisocial behavior are also related to enhanced information disclosure, lower agency problems, better long-term performance for IPO firms, higher proceeds raised and free float, and overall IPO activity in the market.

Reduced investor risk aversion and binding short-sale constraints amplify the anomaly under the condition of high investor optimism. These findings together align with Atmaz and Basak’s (2018) theory that disagreement combined with expectation biases causes mispricing. Alternative mechanisms, including managerial strategic disclosure, intertemporal hedging demand, credit risk, and analyst self-censorship,fail to subsume this conditional pattern.
