Transaction-level (TRACE) data shows that momentum profitability crucially depends on outliers. Outlier trimming vanishes momentum returns, whereas winsorization yields a robust but conservative assessment of the momentum effect. Consistent with bond prices being more responsive to unfavorable shocks, negative (positive) outliers tend to increase (decrease) momentum profitability, indicating that outliers are not data errors that should simply be trimmed. Volume filters show that momentum profits during the 2007-2009 crisis were due to the activities of small investors. The results will be put in the context of recent discoveries on the effect of information diffusion in corporate bonds (Li and Galvani, RF, 2021).  主办单位: 经济与金融学院 2021年4月30日
