Investor sentiment and cross-section of cryptocurrency returns
This study investigates the cross-sectional pricing of sentiment risk in cryptocurrencies, defined as price sensitivity to changes in the Crypto Fear and Greed Index, from November 2018 to July 2024. Controlling for market, size, reversal, and liquidity factors, cryptocurrencies with intermediate sentiment risk yield a risk-adjusted weekly return 3.57% higher than those with low or high risk, revealing a negative sentiment risk premium in cryptocurrencies with high positive sentiment beta. This negative risk premium is partially attributed to overpayment for lottery-like cryptocurrencies. These findings remain robust across cross-sectional regressions, various quantile portfolios, alternative risk factors, and diverse illiquidity measures.
期刊介绍:
Behavioral and Experimental Finance represent lenses and approaches through which we can view financial decision-making. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality research in all fields of finance, where such research is carried out with a behavioral perspective and / or is carried out via experimental methods. It is open to but not limited to papers which cover investigations of biases, the role of various neurological markers in financial decision making, national and organizational culture as it impacts financial decision making, sentiment and asset pricing, the design and implementation of experiments to investigate financial decision making and trading, methodological experiments, and natural experiments.
Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance welcomes full-length and short letter papers in the area of behavioral finance and experimental finance. The focus is on rapid dissemination of high-impact research in these areas.
