“…Notable exceptions are Mamaysky, Spiegel, and Zhang (2008) who find evidence for market timing using Kalman filtering techniques, and Bollen and Busse (2001) and Elton, Gruber, and Blake (2011) who find evidence of market timing using higher frequency holdings data. Our finding that some managers have skill is consistent with a number of recent papers in the empirical mutual fund literature, e.g., Pástor and Stambaugh (2002), Kacperczyk, Sialm, andZheng (2005, 2008), Kacperczyk and Seru (2007), Christoffersen, Keim, and Musto (2007), Cremers and Petajisto (2009), Koijen (2010), Baker, Litov, Wachter, and Wurgler (2010), Huang, Sialm, and Zhang (2011), Amihud andGoyenko (2011), andCohen, Polk, andSilli (2011).…”
