Indonesian stock market is dominated by young and relatively inexperienced traders who often depend on the recommendations of influencers or bloggers in social media. This will then make them dependent and conduct frequent trading, which also means higher transaction costs that diminish their profits and increase their risks, thus decreasing investor satisfaction. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the impact of perceived investor sophistication and social media influence on investment satisfaction mediated with perceived investment return as a mediating element. The analysis focused on young investors aged 18 to 30 who have invested in shares on the Indonesian Stock Exchange for at least one year. A quantitative method was adopted using questionnaires to collect data from 344 respondents. Furthermore, data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling – Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) with SMART PLS 4.0 software. The results showed that both perceived investor sophistication and investment return significantly affected investment satisfaction with beta coefficients of 0.416 and 0.358, respectively. Perceived investor sophistication also significantly influenced perceived investment return with a beta coefficient of 0.557. Additionally, social media influence significantly affected perceived investment return with a beta coefficient of 0.103. This social media influence did not directly impact investment satisfaction but through the perceived investment return, which was further found to fully mediate the impact of social media influence on investment satisfaction. Perceived investment return also partially mediated the effect of investor sophistication on Investment Satisfaction.

Investment Management and Financial Innovations Volume 19, 2022 Issue #4 pp. 309-326 Views: 325 Downloads: 172 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯBuilding on a prior study that documents that stock price crashes are positively associated with firm-specific investor sentiment (hereafter, the sentiment), this study further investigates the moderating effect of foreign investors on Korea’s stock market. This study hypothesizes that foreign investors as sophisticated participants are indifferent of the significant relationship between the sentiment and the stock price crashes. For firms listed on the KSE over the period of 2011–2019, the analysis findings show that the high stock crash risk attributable to the high sentiment is attenuated for firms with high foreign ownership. However, such moderating effect of foreign ownership disappears when taking foreign investment horizon into consideration. This implies that future stock crash risk reduction under the high sentiment is due to the corporate monitoring role of foreign investors, who are targeting a long-term investment horizon. This study adds to the literature on the role of foreign investors by suggesting that foreign investors act as a rigorous monitor helpful for managing stock price, rather than a price maker who is rational under the high sentiment.

Investment Management and Financial Innovations Volume 21, 2024 Issue #4 pp. 35-48 Views: 163 Downloads: 41 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯBitcoin remains a popular investment choice despite the regulatory obstacles and failures of many crypto firms. This intriguing behavior of investors necessitates calls for more in-depth research. This study explores the underlying motivations behind the intention to invest in Bitcoin by considering inaction regret aversion, overconfidence bias, herding, risk affinity, profit expectancy, perceived ease of investing, and social media influence in shaping the investors’ attitude towards investing in Bitcoin and consequently on behavioral intention to invest in Bitcoin. The study employs PLS-SEM and mediation analysis on a sample of 439 individuals from India with no history of cryptocurrency trading or investment. Path analysis demonstrates that inaction regret aversion, risk affinity, profit expectancy of Bitcoin, perceived ease of investing in Bitcoin, and social media influence are significant positive predictors of attitude toward investing in Bitcoin. Notably, profit expectancy remains the most relevant variable in the stated context. Attitude toward investing in Bitcoin positively and significantly influences the behavioral intention to invest in Bitcoin. The current study also indicates the significance of attitude as a mediator in the mentioned context.
