(see the archive,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/alphaarchitect.com\/category\/architect-academic-insights\/turnkey-behavioral-finance\/\">here<\/a>). But we understand that reading a bunch of dense blogs can be tedious and time-consuming. Luckily, we sometimes run across research pieces that serve as \u2018meta-analysis\u2019 pieces, which essentially amount to studies of all the studies on a specific topic. In this particular case, we ran across a gem by Profs. Barber and Odean<sup>(1)<\/sup>, which summarizes a lot of their life\u2019s work (and others\u2019) on the topic of individual investor behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors tackle some key research questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The performance of individual investors.<\/li><li>Why do individual investors underperform?<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-academic-insights\">What are the Academic Insights?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The answers to the question above are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Individual investors tend to have poor performance and this effect is robust across all research on the topic.<\/li><li>Why they underperform is complex, and still up to debate, but can be boiled down into the following: high transaction costs, poor security selection, and under diversification driven by overconfidence, sensation seeking, and disposition effects (and many more!)<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-does-it-matter\">Why does it matter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many market commentators, financial advisors, and professionals are quick to point that that individuals are terrible investors. Of course, it\u2019s not exactly clear that professionals are much better than individuals, but it is certainly true that most investors should simply buy low-cost index funds (or factor funds!) and gets their hands out of the cookie jar. What\u2019s nice about this paper is that the assertions that individuals are poor investors \u2014 and exactly why they fail to do well \u2014 are backed by peer-reviewed research. One can leverage these insights to help investors find solutions that will solve their problems and put them in a better position to be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paper-s-conclusion\">Paper\u2019s Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The investors who inhabit the real world and those who populate academic models are distant cousins. In theory, investors hold well-diversified portfolios and trade infrequently so as to minimize taxes and other investment costs. In practice, investors behave differently. They trade frequently and have perverse stock selection ability, incurring unnecessary investment costs and return losses. They tend to sell their winners and hold their losers, generating unnecessary tax liabilities. Many hold poorly diversified portfolios, resulting in unnecessarily high levels of diversifiable risk, and many are unduly influenced by media and past experience. Individual investors who ignore the prescriptive advice to buy and hold low-fee, well-diversified portfolios, generally do so to their detriment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>References<br><\/strong>1. the \u201cOGs of investor behavior research\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Luckily, we sometimes
