DESCRIPTION:Oliver SPALT (Tilburg University)\nLearning by doing matters f
 or professional investors. We develop a new methodology to show that mutua
 l fund managers outperform in industries where they have obtained experien
 ce on the job. The key to our identification strategy is that we look “i
 nside" funds and exploit heterogeneity in experience for the same manager 
 at a given point in time across industries. As fund managers become more e
 xperienced\, they pick better stocks\, and their trades become better pred
 ictors for abnormal stock returns around subsequent earnings announcements
 . Our approach identifies experience as a first-order driver of observed m
 utual fund manager skill.
