Link 2. At the top of the mind : peak prices and the disposition effect
abstractThe disposition effect is the reluctance to sell assets at a loss relative to a salient point of reference, typically assumed to be the purchase price. Using data on stocks and housing sales, we show that the peak price achieved by an asset during the investor's period of holding constitutes an additional salient reference point for asset owners that overlaps, and interacts, with the purchase price reference point. Peaks occurring before the investor purchased the asset do not affect future sales, indicating that ownership affects how investors form reference points.

6. Does Pension Automatic Enrollment Increase Debt? Evidence from a Large-Scale Natural Experiment
abstractDoes automatic enrollment into retirement saving increase household debt? We study the randomized roll-out of automatic enrollment pensions to ~160,000 employers in the United Kingdom with 2-29 employees. We find that the additional savings generated through automatic enrollment are partially offset by increases in unsecured debt. Over the first 41 months after enrollment, each additional month increases the average automatically enrolled employee's pension savings by £32-£38, unsecured debt (such as personal loans and bank overdrafts) by £7, the likelihood of having a mortgage by 0.05 percentage points, and mortgage balances by £118. Automatic enrollment causes loan defaults to fall and credit scores to rise modestly

7. Covid, work-from-home, and securities misconduct
abstractWe consider whether traders are more likely to commit securities violations when trading at home, a new form of working induced by the Covid pandemic. We examine data pre- and post-Covid, during which some traders were unexpectedly forced to work at home. The data indicate the presence of both a treatment and a selection effect, where work at home exhibits fewer misconduct cases. Work at home is associated with fewer cases of trading misconduct, although no difference in communications misconduct. The economic significance of working from home on trading misconduct is large for both the treatment and selection effects.

10. Tapping Out : The Effect of Contactless Payments on Expenditure Recall
abstractDifferent payment methods have been found to affect how much people spend and how well they are able to recall the amount spent, tendencies that have been attributed to differences in the pain of paying and payment transparency. We investigate whether these effects extend to contactless payments in two studies that measured the accuracy with which expenditures can be recalled. Study 1 measured expenditure recall immediately after a shopping trip, and found that contactless payments were associated with decreased accuracy of expenditure recall relative to cash, but not to PIN-verified payment methods, which had the highest expenditure recall error. In Study 2, participants were randomly assigned a payment method for one of their usual shopping trips. Those assigned to a contactless card showed worse expenditure recall than those assigned to cash or PIN-verified debit cards. The reported pain of paying did not differ between payment methods, nor did it relate to expenditure recall, either directly or as a mediator. We discuss how reduced expenditure recall may have important implications, as it may lead to larger issues in personal finance management
