We theoretically demonstrate that if investors can learn firms’ future performances based on all of the noisy signals, systematic volatility would substantially decrease, even when incremental information for each firm is modest. Using China’s data, we empirically find that systematic volatility is lower in the earnings season, when information disclosure intensity dramatically increases, and this pattern is more pronounced for portfolios with small size and low book-to-market firms. Finally, we demonstrate that stock return synchronicity is also lower in the earnings season, which has important implications for the R-squared puzzle.
