Motivation• Saunders (1993), Hirshleifer and Shumway(2003)
Sunshine/Daylight (measured by cloudiness) → Mood → Bias → Returns (low returns on rainy days)
• Kamstra, Kramer, and Levi (KKL, 2003)Sunshine/Daylight (measured by length of day) → SAD
→ Risk Aversion → Returns (high returns on short days)
• The implication of seasonal risk aversion for returns– Static effect: higher risk aversion in fall and winter →
higher required returns in fall and winter– Dynamic effect: risk aversion decreases in winter and
spring → price ↑ → high realized returns in W and Sp– Which effect dominates? Not clear in previous study

This Paper’s Contribution
• Dynamic effect should dominateOur model shows that it is the change, not the level, of
daylight or risk aversion that determines the pattern of SAD-induced seasonal returns (Winter, Spring > Summer, Fall)
• Others:– Concavity (diminishing marginal impact of daylight:
W>Sp, Su>F)– Cross-sectional differences (size, beta, STD)– Empirical Evidence

The Model
• Assets– Zero net supply of bond, rf normalized to 0.
– A single risky asset with a terminal payoff DT,.
dDt / Dt = μD dt + σD dBt
• Agent– A representative agent with CRRA utility
– Objective function: Max E { U(WT) }

Equilibrium Returns• Return from time t to t+d
log (St+d / St)
= (γt-0.5) σD2d +(γt – γt+d)σD
2(T–t-d) +σD(Bt+d–Bt)
where γ: risk aversion.
• Concavity: γt = -g(lt), where lt is length of day at t, and g(lt) is concave.

Summary of Implications
• Winter > Spring > Summer > Fall
• Cross-sectional:– Risk: riskier firms have larger amplitudes– Size: smaller firms tend to have more
ownership by individual investors, who are more susceptible to behavioural factors

Summary
• Theory– Dynamic Effect Should Dominate: W,Sp>Su,F– Concavity Effect: W>Sp; Su>F
• Further Inferences– Cross-sectional Differences: Size/Risk
• Tests– Strongly supportive (size premium is even
reversed in fall)
