XING HUANG
Associate Professor of Finance​
I am an Associate Professor of Finance at Cornell University.​ My research lies at the intersection of behavioral finance, investor behavior, and asset pricing, with a particular focus on how individual and institutional investors process information and make financial decisions, and how these behaviors influence market outcomes.
My work has been published in leading academic journals, including the Journal of Finance, Review of Financial Studies, and Journal of Financial Economics, and has been featured in major media outlets, including The Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, and CNBC. I have received multiple best paper awards at major conferences, including the MFA Annual Meeting, Financial Research Association (FRA) Conference, Utah Winter Finance Conference, and Red Rock Finance Conference. My recent research has been supported by the NBER-OFR Financial Frictions and Systemic Risk Research Grant.​​
​
I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of California, Berkeley, and hold both a B.A. and an M.A. in Finance from Peking University. Prior to joining Cornell, I served on the faculty at Michigan State University and Washington University in St. Louis.
