This Ph.D. dissertation consists of three chapters in behavioral finance, financial intermediation, and labor and finance. The first chapter explores the shock of school closures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic to study the effect of domestic responsibilities on analyst forecasts and identifies the negative effect of unequal division of housework between gender on female analysts' work. The second chapter uses hand-collected data from Gallup surveys that cover more than 50 years to create a direct measure of counter-stereotypical female role models and shows that admiring counter-stereotypical female role models is associated with better career outcomes in terms of labor market participation and occupational choices. The third chapter analyzes how mutual funds' trading experiences bias their future repurchasing decisions and finds that mutual funds are less likely to repurchase a stock if they previously sold the stock for a loss rather than for a gain. We also find evidence that female fund managers are slightly less likely to suffer from this repurchasing bias.
