论文摘要：

We find that institutional trading in aggregate cannot positively predict stock returns after 2000, suggesting that institutional investors as a group no longer have an information advantage after the adoption of Regulation Fair Disclosure (Reg FD). Furthermore, we show that both the short-term and local institutional investors, who are documented to have an information advantage over their counterparts, lose their advantage in post-Reg FD period. By contrast, institutional investors who have skills in generating precise private information from public sources demonstrate a persistent and even greater information advantage. Last, we find that skilled institutional investors change their appetite for the information advantage to large and value stocks in post-Reg FD period. These findings imply that institutional investors rely heavily on selective disclosure to possess private information while Reg FD effectively levels the playing field and blocks their backdoors. Only the information advantage created from open sources is sustainable on the leveled playing field. Consequently, skilled institutional investors love the leveling of playing field but non-skilled institutional investors hate that.
