Abstract

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to explore fund investors’ patterns with respect to hot vis-à-vis non-hot purchase periods and hot vis-à-vis non-hot redemption periods. To achieve this, we use quantile regression least square dummy variable estimator, and find that the patterns of hot and non-hot behavior are significantly different. For example, higher fees do not deter investors from purchasing funds at hot purchase periods, but they do have a negative impact at non-hot purchase periods. It seems important, therefore, to be mindful of such differences when studying fund investors’ investment behaviors.
