In the first essay, I create a hedge fund informed trading measure (ITM) that separates information related trades from liquidity driven trades.

The second essay exploits the expiring nature of hedge fund lockups to create …

Relative to open market repurchases, preset plans provide an expanded repurchase window and increased legal cover, albeit at the cost of reducing repurchase flexibility and the option to time repurchases. These costs and benefits are significantly associated with Rule 10b5-1 adoption. Consistent with preset plans signaling commitment, Rule 10b5-1 repurchase announcements are associated with greater and faster completion …
