As political information becomes more ambiguous, investors trade more lottery-type (low-priced, high-volatility, high-skewness) stocks in the hope of hitting the investment \u2018jackpot\u2019. In parallel, they trade fewer non-lottery-type stocks. This trading volume differential between top and bottom deciles of lottery-type investors is statistically and economically significant in number and dollar volume. Our findings are robust after controlling for economic policy uncertainty, VIX, and macroeconomic variables, and after including other measures of lottery stocks, political signal quality, and controls for federal lottery jackpots.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ECR\/PGR Development Event<\/strong> \u2013 Editorial Insights<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time<\/strong>: 15:30-16:30<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to attend, please register using the following link:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.office.com%2Fe%2Fibr00Bt6R2&amp;data=05%7C02%7CAlison.Brown%40newcastle.ac.uk%7C104e23eb59064c7cc7da08dc00779ecd%7C9c5012c9b61644c2a91766814fbe3e87%7C1%7C0%7C638385760951785226%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=9XvDi3f6KvjgQ%2BpCPp9qzBO2BBRY%2BYhqZFycivlwmxg%3D&amp;reserved=0\">ECR\/PGR Development Event \u2013 editorial insights<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Abstract<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>The editorial session will discuss pathways to publication, crafting research papers etc. and include an informal Q&amp;A.
