Abstract
► We examine if retail investors local to a company have an information advantage. ► Large trading imbalances by local investors predict earnings announcement returns. ► Local information advantage is pronounced for small and medium-sized firms. ► Local information advantage is absent for large firms. ► Local investors' information advantage comes at the expense of nonlocal traders.
