摘要
We explore analysts' earnings forecast data to improve upon one popular disagreement measure- the analyst forecast dispersion measure-proposed by Diether, Malloy, and Scherbina (2002). Our analysis suggests that changes in the standard deviations of forecasted earnings can work as a complementary disagreement measure that is comparable across stocks and immune from other return-predictive information contained in the normalization scalars of analyst forecast dispersion measures. We also document evidence that the change-based disagreement measure predicts future cross-sectional returns significantly only when changes in the mean forecasts are negative. This finding suggests that the interaction between disagreement and underreaction to earnings news affects asset prices. © 2017 INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences.
