Professor Lin's research centers on Behavioral Finance, Empirical Asset Pricing, and Financial Markets. He investigates how cognitive limitations, psychological biases, and information asymmetry influence investor decisions and market dynamics. His work frequently employs large-scale datasets and natural experiments to document phenomena like social media's impact on local information advantages, psychological barriers in cross-firm return predictability, and behavioral drivers of trading anomalies. His methodologies often bridge experimental design with real-world market data to isolate causal relationships.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals consistent focus on behavioral mechanisms in financial markets, with increasing emphasis on societal implications (e.g., stock market losses linked to domestic violence) and novel data sources (e.g., social media). His work demonstrates methodological rigor through repeated natural experiments and large-sample analyses, contributing significantly to understanding market inefficiencies and investor psychology.
Professor Lin has advised doctoral students including Vesa Pursiainen (co-author on crowdfunding research). As Finance Area Head, he leads academic strategy and curriculum development. His research program reflects sustained funding through HKU appointments and collaborative projects with international scholars.
