🎙️ Welcome everyone into our latest episode of "Revise and Resubmit"—the place where research comes alive, one question at a time!

🤓 Today, we're diving into an extraordinary paper: "A Theory of Investors' Disclosure" by Pingyang Gao and Jinzhi Lu. Published on November 7, 2025, in none other than Contemporary Accounting Research—a journal so prestigious, it's on the FT50 list! 📚✨

What happens when investors hold secret evidence on a firm, tiptoe between transparency and strategy, and shake up the market? Our authors reveal a world where investors always disclose their initial evidence, but when it comes to additional clues, they play a clever game—showing the extremes, hiding the middle, and leaving markets guessing. Their disclosure doesn't just move the price—it can mislead it, intentionally.

So here’s the puzzle: If investors can profit from volatility rather than certainty, are disclosures designed to inform... or to disrupt? 💡

A heartfelt thanks to the brilliant authors, Pingyang Gao and Jinzhi Lu, and big appreciation to the Canadian Academic Accounting Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. for publishing such impactful research.

Here’s our curious question to take with you: In a market where investors disclose to drive volatility, not truth, can we ever really trust what’s revealed?
