Highlights

Professor Cohen and his co-authors find that the stocks that the active managers display the most conviction towards ex ante, their best ideas, outperform the market as well as the other stocks in those managers' portfolios, by approximately 1 to 2.5 percent per quarter depending on the benchmark employed.
