This study considers two causes—inexperience and overreaction to price movements—of a well-established phenomenon on the stock market called “excessive trading”: large trading volumes leading to decreased net portfolio returns via increased transaction costs. Creating a stylized hold or trade-scenario in a computer laboratory experiment, I confirm both inexperience and overreaction as robust drivers of trading activity. The 2 × 2 experimental design featuring overlapping treatments enables me to disentangle the two direct effects from their interaction. The results show no signs of dependencies between the two channels, suggesting that psychological distortions are immutable personal characteristics that cannot be unlearned.

We examine the link between simulation experience and the performance in real money accounts. We find that more active simulator users, simulator users who take on more risk, and simulator users with the best stock-level performance (but not portfolio-level performance) are more likely to open real money accounts. These users are also likely to be more active real money traders and significantly underperform in their real money trades. These results suggest that without proper education regarding the hazards of active trading and accurate performance evaluation, stock simulator users may draw incorrect inferences regarding their trading skill and experience real-money underperformance.

We examine whether investors display a lack of attention by not incorporating relevant public information into equity valuations. Beginning in 2019, ASC 842 requires the recognition of operating leases, which were previously only disclosed in the financial statement footnotes. This change in accounting standard results in firms with significant operating leases recognizing a considerable increase in debt. We find that firms with significant operating leases, on average, earned negative stock returns around the initial recognition of their operating leases. We find that the negative reaction to operating lease recognition does not vary with firm-level proxies for investor attention, which suggests a pervasive lack of attention to operating lease disclosures prior to ASC 842. Our results provide new evidence consistent with investors suffering from limited attention and equity prices reflecting a lack of fundamental analysis.
