The Mill Run #1: seven finance papers and what we would test next

Which papers deserve a closer look—and which are useful tools rather than trading strategies? This edition examines seven studies, separates the authors’ findings from our assessment, and explains what we would test next.

A free research digest. These seven selections are paper assessments and proposed research, not seven completed house replications or trading recommendations.
