We study the information content of credit and debit card transactions, showing that consumer spending data positively predict various measures of a company’s future earnings surprises and are closely correlated with future returns. A long-short portfolio that was built on the basis of a real-time sell signal generates statistically and economically significant net returns of 16% per annum, net of transaction costs and after controlling for the common sources of systematic factor returns.
