Abstract
This paper investigates the mean–variance relation during different time periods within trading days. We reveal that there is a positive mean–variance relation when the stock market is closed (i.e., overnight), but the positive relation is distorted when the market is open (i.e., intraday). The evidence offers a new explanation for the weak risk-return tradeoff in stock markets.
