摘要

摘要我们使用政党识别语言，如“自由媒体”和“MAGA”，来识别投资者社交平台StockTwits上的共和党用户。使用差异设计，我们发现，在新冠肺炎大流行期间，党派共和党人对股票的信念相对不受影响，而其他用户则变得更加悲观。在横截面测试中，我们发现共和党人对新冠肺炎危机期间遭受最大损失的股票相对更乐观，但对中国股票更悲观。最后，在StockTwits上党派分歧最大的股票在更广泛的市场上有更多的交易，这解释了疫情期间股票成交量增加28%的原因。

Does Partisanship Shape Investor Beliefs? Evidence from the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract We use party-identifying language—like “liberal media” and “MAGA”—to identify Republican users on the investor social platform StockTwits. Using a difference-in-difference design, we find that partisan Republicans remain relatively unfazed in their beliefs about equities during the COVID-19 pandemic, while other users become considerably more pessimistic. In cross-sectional tests, we find Republicans become relatively more optimistic about stocks that suffered the most during the COVID-19 crisis, but more pessimistic about Chinese stocks. Finally, stocks with the greatest partisan disagreement on StockTwits have significantly more trading in the broader market, explaining 28% of the increase in stock turnover during the pandemic.

It evaluates papers based on their original contribution to the understanding of asset pricing. The topics covered in RAPS include theoretical and empirical models of asset prices and returns, empirical methodology, macro-finance, financial institutions and asset prices, information and liquidity in asset markets, behavioral investment studies, asset market structure and microstructure, risk analysis, hedge funds, mutual funds, alternative investments, and other related topics. Manuscripts submitted to RAPS must be exclusive to the journal and should not have been previously published. Starting in 2020, RAPS will publish three issues per year, owing to an increasing number of high-quality submissions.
