Trading in twilight: sleep deprivation makes you a worse investor

“We test whether mental alertness, as proxied by sleep disruption, impairs investor trading performance. Using four complementary approaches, we document that retail investors who experience a later sunset time on average earn lower abnormal returns on their trades.”

I did my postdoc research on sleep and discovered new genetic variants for sleep duration and timing (when you want to wake up and go to bed)

the one sleep advice I have is don’t try to change what your natural rhythm is to meet some weird Saratoga water ideal—if you work best late then just wake up late

doing what feels “natural” is the deceptively hard thing under societal pressure

if you are up for re-discovering/calibrating to your natural state

here’s an experiment similar to what is recommended for meditation retreats

sleep without minding the alarm or schedule for a few days to catch up on sleep debt

then see where you naturally land

that might be closer to one’s natural rhythm

what if your natural state is anxiety induced insomnia

i've heard that means everyone gets to follow their natural rhythms 😅
