Predicting Anomalies
We show that stock returns follow predictable patterns before the publication of anomaly trading signals. Moreover, anomaly trading signals derived from financial data are themselves predictable, making it possible to trade before financial statements are released. A trading strategy based on predicted signals earns an annualized return of 3.65% in the quarter before the signal is released.
