XING HUANG

I am an Associate Professor of Finance at Washington University in St. Louis.​ 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 received the Dimensional Fund Advisors Distinguished Paper Prize from the Journal of Finance. I have also received best paper awards at the Financial Research Association (FRA) Conference, the Utah Winter Finance Conference, and the 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 a B.A. and an M.A. in Finance from Peking University. I have held faculty positions at Cornell University and Michigan State University.
