Professor Frank Shuman Recognized In Ima Magazine, Usu Jon M. Huntsman School Of Business

Jon M. Huntsman School of Business News Collection

The student chapter at Utah State University is one of IMA’s ongoing success stories. For 18 consecutive years, the chapter has achieved the Gold Level Award of Excellence. For five of those years, including 2013, it’s been named an Outstanding Student Chapter, which is granted to only a few schools each year. That’s quite a track record – and although he’s too modest to admit it, a large portion of the credit goes to Frank Shuman, CMA, pictured here, who’s been the chapter’s faculty advisor (now an IMA Campus Advocate) since that long, successful run began.

Frog In The Pan: Continuous Information And Momentum, Zhi Da, Umit G. Gurun, Mitch Warachka Feb 2014

Frog In The Pan: Continuous Information And Momentum, Zhi Da, Umit G. Gurun, Mitch Warachka

Business Faculty Articles and Research

We test a frog-in-the-pan (FIP) hypothesis that predicts investors are inattentive to information arriving continuously in small amounts. Intuitively, we hypothesize that a series of frequent gradual changes attracts less attention than infrequent dramatic changes. Consistent with the FIP hypothesis, we find that continuous information induces strong persistent return continuation that does not reverse in the long run. Momentum decreases monotonically from 5.94% for stocks with continuous information during their formation period to –2.07% for stocks with discrete information but similar cumulative formation-period returns. Higher media coverage coincides with discrete information and mitigates the stronger momentum following continuous information.

Are Your Cellars Safe?, James Peter Murphy

Conference papers

Bar owners have to be more concerned about health, safety and security issues. This is the result of a variety of factors, most notably recent legislative changes at national and international level and the subsequent high costs of accidents (including costs relating to litigation and compensation).

Recent research studies indicate that customers and individuals are drinking no more than their parents were drinking 15 years ago but the frequency, strength of drinks, and amount of drinks consumed per session has increased.
