Abstract
In this article, I examine whether a behavioral salience bias can explain analysts’ underreaction to inflation. Using a sample of U.S. analysts, I found that analysts incorporate both expected and unexpected inflation in their earnings forecasts when forecasts are more salient. I further found that efficient earnings forecast is a dominant channel that affects the inclusion of inflation in analysts’ earnings forecasts.
