Difference in monthly long short excess returns following high against low readings of a composite sentiment index. Sentiment measured July 1965 to December 2007 and anomaly returns August 1965 to January 2008. Four of the eleven individual anomalies are not significant on their own; the combination is. Standard errors are heteroskedasticity consistent.

Across eleven anomalies, long short spreads following high sentiment exceed those following low sentiment by 0.93 per cent a month with a t statistic of 4.25. Decomposed, the short leg contributes all of it and the long leg none.
