Note(s): This table presents results of the analysis that uses the continuously compounded return as the dependent variable. is stock return over 07/01 of t to 06/30 of t + 1, t = 1966 to 2015. , the continuously compounded return, is the natural logarithm of 1 plus . () is standardized () with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. is the idiosyncratic volatility measure, defined in Appendix 2. is the difference between the natural logarithm of the market value of equity on 06/30 of t and the natural logarithm of the estimated intrinsic value of equity obtained using the latest accounting information available by 06/30 of t (see Appendix 1). is an indicator variable that equals 1 if is in the i-th quintile (0 otherwise), i = 1 to 5. Industry FE stands for industry fixed effects. Controls stands for control variables and are defined in Appendix 2. T-statistics in parentheses are adjusted for Newey-West autocorrelations of three lags. **, *, and † denote statistical significance at the 1, 5, and 10% levels, respectively, using a 2-tailed test
