Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Return-chasing involves investing in assets that have realized a high rate of return in the past. Recency bias could explain return-chasing. Recency bias leads people to mistakenly believe that recent past trends and patterns will continue into the future, leading people to chase recent historical returns. As discussed in the Evidence-Based Economics feature in the chapter, research has shown that return-chasing does not usually benefit investors. At 154 of the largest U.S. corporations, employees did not benefit from return chasing.
