The same approach could be extended from physical to psychological cues if evolutionary psychology built stronger ties with personality psychology, psychometrics and behavioral genetics. A major challenge for mate choice research is to develop more explicit computational models at three levels, specifying: (1) the perceptual adaptations that register sexual cues given sensory input, (2) the judgment adaptations that integrate multiple cues into assessments of overall attractiveness, and (3) the search strategies that people follow in trying to form mutually attracted pairs.

Design/methodology/approach – This study uses messages posted on TheLion.com, which reports a real time list of the ten most actively discussed stocks. The stocks in this list at the daily market close during 2005-2006 are examined. An event study is performed to estimate the daily abnormal returns on these stocks. Contemporaneous and lead–lag regressions of abnormal returns against message posting activities are performed. Findings – Online posters prefer thinly traded micro-cap stocks. On average, there is an abnormal return of 19.4 per cent on a stock the day it is one of the ten most talked about stocks. The number of messages posted about a stock on a given day is not only positively related with the stock's abnormal return on that day but it also positively predicts the next day's abnormal return. Research limitations/implications – It may be interesting to examine if the investor sentiment expressed in online messages has predictive power for micro-cap stocks. Practical implications – The results provide evidence to regulators that online talk affects stock prices. They show investors that there are inefficiencies in the stock market. They also suggest that corporate managers, especially of small firms, should monitor the stock message boards. Originality/value – This study focuses on the micro-cap stocks favored by online posters and finds that online talk has the power to predict the next-day returns. }, added-at = {2009-03-03T13:53:18.000+0100}, author = {Sabherwal, Ying Zhang Sanjiv}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/27e7ad81c587fd53bc83fd978392633f8/enterldestodes}, interhash = {0446eb02bc49727e882905a6bd033802}, intrahash = {7e7ad81c587fd53bc83fd978392633f8}, keywords = {d3}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T13:53:18.000+0100}, title = {Online talk: does it matter?}, year = 2008 } @article{fanga2007, abstract = {We examine the relation between media coverage and the cross-sectional dispersion of stock returns.

Dennoch können die bisherigen Ansätze im Rahmen des neoklassischen, rationalen Theoriegebäudes das Geschehen auf Finanzmärkten weder erklären noch prognostizieren. Daher wurden in der jüngeren Vergangenheit neue Theorien im Feld "Behavioral Finance" entwickelt, die zum Ziel haben, das Verhalten von Investoren auf Finanzmärkten realistischer zu modellieren und vom Ideal eines vollkommen rationalen Investors - angesichts psychologischer und informatorischer Beschränkungen - abzurücken. Die fünf Kapitel dieser Dissertation beinhalten empirische Tests von grundlegenden Erkenntnissen der Behavioral Finance und untersuchen, ob die Annahme irrationaler oder beschränkt rationaler Investoren sinnvoll ist, um Finanzmarktprozesse und das beobachtete Verhalten von Investoren zu verstehen. Hinsichtlich der Ergebnisse können zwei zentrale Schlussfolgerungen gezogen werden. Erstens wird gezeigt, dass nicht-rationale Entscheidungsprozesse einen signifikanten Einfluss auf Finanzmarktbewegungen und Investorenverhalten ausüben. Dieses Ergebnis zieht sich durch alle fünf Kapitel der Arbeit und zeigt sich in der Prognosekraft von Investorenstimmungen für zukünftige, langfristige Renditen, der empirischen Erklärungskraft von Kurzfristorientierung und Verlustaversion für das Verhalten von erwarteten Querschnittsrenditen und den systematischen Verzerrungen im Anlageverhalten von institutionellen Investoren und Privatanlegern. Eine zweite Schlussfolgerung betrifft die Rolle von institutionellen und privaten Anlegern. Wie die empirischen Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigen, verhalten sich diese beiden Gruppen von Marktteilnehmern signifikant unterschiedlich. Während institutionelle Anleger dem Ideal des rationalen Investors deutlich näher kommen, unterliegen private Anleger stärker systematisch verzerrtem Verhalten und stellen durch ihr Verhalten tendenziell ein Hindernis für effiziente Märkte dar.

The data is provided by Media Tenor, a research institute which collects and rates all corporate news from the most important German daily newspapers and TV news. Our analysis is based on roughly 300,000 corporate news on 125 large- and medium-sized companies in 5 large daily newspapers and 7 TV news shows from Germany between July 1998 and October 2006. Since analysts rate the news, we have an exogenous measure whether news are good or bad news for a company. Based on this data we can show that the incorporation of information in prices is fairly fast. The main price reaction occurs on the day of the arrival of the new information. This price jump is especially large if the news coverage in the media is accompanied by ad hoc announcements made by the corporation itself. While there is only a very short-term post-event drift after good news, prices tend to drift for several days after bad news. The post-event trading volume is significantly higher than before the news for several days for good as well as bad news. To provide a test of the model of Hong and Stein (1999) we define several proxies for the speed of the information diffusion through different investor groups. We find that for smaller companies with lower abnormal media coverage the information diffusion is indeed slower, as predicted by theory. We further combine the media coverage data with individual investors transaction data in stocks and bank-issued warrants from a large German online broker. Our results indicate that individual investors, especially stock investors, as compared to warrant investors, react slower to new information as the market does. A tendency to react to bad news by buying put warrants, because selling stocks short was impossible for private investors during our sample period, could not be observed. }, added-at = {2009-03-03T12:54:50.000+0100}, author = {Schmitz∗, Philipp}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2f6a10fc29661debb295a96f478343943/enterldestodes}, interhash = {8de0eac18df84eeabf8e9386fec152ab}, intrahash = {f6a10fc29661debb295a96f478343943}, keywords = {d3}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T12:54:50.000+0100}, title = {Market and Individual Investors Reactions to Corporate News in the Media}, year = 2007 } @article{myaew2008, abstract = {Abstract In this study, we measure managerial affective states during earnings conference calls by analyzing conference call audio files using vocal emotion analysis software. We hypothesize and find that negative affect displayed by managers discussing their firms’ results and prospects is informative about the firm’s financial future. In particular, we find that managers exhibiting negative affect are less likely to meet or beat earnings expectations over each of the three subsequent quarters. However, market participants do not immediately impound these implications. Negative affect is not associated with analyst forecast revisions of next quarter’s earnings. Over the subsequent 180 trading days, cumulative abnormal returns are negatively associated with negative affect, revealing that the market eventually impounds the implications of negative affect into price. Together our findings suggest that vocal cues contain useful information about firms’ fundamentals, incremental to, and of comparable magnitude to, qualitative information conveyed by the linguistic content. }, added-at = {2009-03-03T12:52:13.000+0100}, author = {Mayew, Mohan Venkatachalam William J.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/21bb9e10c609dea18cda0bcc08bc2ed8a/enterldestodes}, interhash = {5052a15a7e453a1573a63f4ffafbab39}, intrahash = {1bb9e10c609dea18cda0bcc08bc2ed8a}, keywords = {d3}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T12:52:13.000+0100}, title = {The Power of Voice: Managerial Affective States and Future Firm Performance}, year = 2008 } @inproceedings{conf/isi/ZhouMWG08, added-at = {2009-03-03T12:49:31.000+0100}, author = {Zhou, Yingjie and Magdon-Ismail, Malik and Wallace, William A. and Goldberg, Mark}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2838085ef04c30731aaa9dc4cfaf95292/enterldestodes}, booktitle = {ISI Workshops}, crossref = {conf/isi/2008w}, date = {2008-06-16}, description = {dblp}, editor = {Yang, Christopher C. and Chen, Hsinchun and Chau, Michael and Chang, Kuiyu and Lang, Sheau-Dong and Chen, Patrick S. and Hsieh, Raymond and Zeng, Daniel and Wang, Fei-Yue and Carley, Kathleen M. and Mao, Wenji and Zhan, Justin}, ee = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-69304-8_33}, interhash = {85cfb23ccb9180abe93cd4037f71b4ed}, intrahash = {838085ef04c30731aaa9dc4cfaf95292}, isbn = {978-3-540-69136-5}, keywords = {d3}, pages = {331-342}, publisher = {Springer}, series = {Lecture Notes in Computer Science}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T12:49:31.000+0100}, title = {A Generative Model for Statistical Determination of Information Content from Conversation Threads.}, url = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/isi/isiw2008.html#ZhouMWG08}, volume = 5075, year = 2008 } @inproceedings{conf/kes/TakahashiTTT06, added-at = {2009-03-03T12:48:38.000+0100}, author = {Takahashi, Satoru and Takahashi, Masakazu and Takahashi, Hiroshi and Tsuda, Kazuhiko}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2f58d10d12aa8d00b98ad81be20680183/enterldestodes}, booktitle = {KES (2)}, crossref = {conf/kes/2006-2}, date = {2006-11-15}, description = {dblp}, editor = {Gabrys, Bogdan and Howlett, Robert J. and Jain, Lakhmi C.}, ee = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/11893004_40}, interhash = {a61ea349a4dbf198272cf77124e56157}, intrahash = {f58d10d12aa8d00b98ad81be20680183}, isbn = {3-540-46537-5}, keywords = {d3}, pages = {310-316}, publisher = {Springer}, series = {Lecture Notes in Computer Science}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T12:48:38.000+0100}, title = {Analysis of Stock Price Return Using Textual Data and Numerical Data Through Text Mining.}, url = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/kes/kes2006-2.html#TakahashiTTT06}, volume = 4252, year = 2006 } @article{mizrach2005, abstract = {We analyze the trading activity in an Internet chat room with approximately 1,300 participants.

This work can drive targeted advertising on the web as well as facilitate understanding community evolution in the blogosphere. We describe the communication dynamics by several simple contextual properties of communication, e.g. the number of posts, the number of comments, the length and response time of comments, strength of comments and the different information roles that can be acquired by people (early responders / late trailers, loyals / outliers). We study a “technology-savvy” community called Engadget (http://www.engadget.com). There are two key contributions in this paper: (a) we identify information roles and the contextual properties for four technology companies, and (b) we model them as a regression problem in a Support Vector Machine framework and train the model with stock movements of the companies. It is interestingly observed that the communication activity on the blogosphere has considerable correlations with stock market movement. These correlation measures are further cross-validated against two baseline methods. Our results are promising yielding about 78% accuracy in predicting the magnitude of movement and 87% for the direction of movement. }, added-at = {2009-03-03T09:52:53.000+0100}, author = {Choudhury, Munmun De and Sundaram, Hari and John, Ajita and Seligmann, Dorée D.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/287f74809a04b6de6a4cc7f34400d8bc9/enterldestodes}, booktitle = {Hypertext}, crossref = {conf/ht/2008}, date = {2008-06-30}, description = {dblp}, editor = {Brusilovsky, Peter and Davis, Hugh C.}, ee = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1379092.1379106}, interhash = {93724f712ac12828e64f6d5de04f790a}, intrahash = {87f74809a04b6de6a4cc7f34400d8bc9}, isbn = {978-1-59593-985-2}, keywords = {d3}, pages = {55-60}, publisher = {ACM}, timestamp = {2009-03-03T09:52:53.000+0100}, title = {Can blog communication dynamics be correlated with stock market activity?}, url = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/ht/ht2008.html#ChoudhurySJS08a}, year = 2008 }
