This book was released on 2008 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We document a change in the nature of trading volume reactions to quarterly earnings announcements over the time period 1976-2005. Consistent with Landsman and Maydew (2002), we find that the magnitude of abnormal trading volume around quarterly earnings announcements has increased over time and that this increase is greater for large firms than small firms. We show, however, that this trend has reversed the negative relation between firm size and trading volume documented by Bamber (1987). Applying insights from recent trading volume theory, we predict and provide evidence that the increase in abnormal trading volume across time and firm size is due to increases in pre-announcement private information. Specifically, we show that the component of abnormal trading volume associated with price change, which theory suggests reflects pre-announcement private information, is increasing across time and firm size. Our results suggest that investors are motivated to acquire private information prior to earnings announcements about firms that have relatively high quality information environments. Thus, our results have implications for policies aimed at reducing information asymmetry between investors by increasing public disclosure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Profit from earnings announcements, by taking targeted, short-term option positions explicitly timed to exploit them! Based on rigorous research and huge data sets, this book identifies the specific earnings-announcement trades most likely to yield profits, and teaches how to make these trades—in plain English, with real examples! Trading on Corporate Earnings News is the first practical, hands-on guide to profiting from earnings announcements. Writing for investors and traders at all experience levels, the authors show how to take targeted, short-term option positions that are explicitly timed to exploit the information in companies’ quarterly earnings announcements. They first present powerful findings of cutting-edge studies that have examined market reactions to quarterly earnings announcements, regularities of earnings surprises, and option trading around corporate events. Drawing on enormous data sets, they identify the types of earnings-announcement trades most likely to yield profits, based on the predictable impacts of variables such as firm size, visibility, past performance, analyst coverage, forecast dispersion, volatility, and the impact of restructurings and acquisitions. Next, they provide real examples of individual stocks–and, in some cases, conduct large sample tests–to guide investors in taking advantage of these documented regularities. Finally, they discuss crucial nuances and pitfalls that can powerfully impact performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I investigate whether firms with higher abnormal trading volume (ATV) around earnings announcements (EAs) outperform those with lower ATV over the short and long terms following the EA. In addition, I address whether any positive relation between ATV around EAs and future firm performance is weaker for firms with a higher proportion of shares held by sophisticated investors. Consistent with theories that attribute ATV around public announcements primarily to differing investor interpretations of the news and that link differential interpretation to future returns, I find that, for several years after an EA, firms in the highest decile of ATV significantly outperform those in the lowest decile. Further, I find that ATV and earnings surprises explain future returns incremental to the three Fama and French (1993) and momentum risk-factors. Next, consistent with the proportion of ATV driven by lack of consensus regarding the price being lower when the presence of rational investors is higher, I document that the level of investor sophistication-a proxy for investor rationality-attenuates the positive relation between ATV and future returns. Taken together, my study lends support to and links two streams of theories from financial economics, and demonstrates that trading volume reactions to EAs provide information about future returns and firm financial performance that cannot be deduced from the price reactions or the magnitudes of earnings surprises. My study also documents that the positive relation between ATV and future firm performance is sensitive to the level of security holdings of sophisticated investors.
Download or read book The Changing Behavior of Trading Volume Reactions to Earnings Announcements written by Orie E. Barron and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increase in investor diversity over the last 35-40 years (ICI 2014) prompted us to revisit trading volume reactions to earnings announcements and how these reactions vary with firm size. This increase in investor diversity would likely lead to an increase in differences in the precision of pre-announcement information and potentially increase the importance of earnings announcements to resolve investor disagreement. We find that the nature of trading volume reactions to earnings announcements has fundamentally changed over the 35-year time period 1977-2011. There has been a dramatic increase in the magnitude and frequency of volume reactions to earnings announcements over this time period, and this effect is more pronounced in large firms where volume reactions were previously infrequent. The increase in large firms' trading volume reactions is so pronounced that the relation between volume reactions and firm size has turned positive in recent years, thereby reversing Bamber's (1986, 1987) previously documented negative relation. We provide intuition and empirical evidence that our results are attributable to the resolution of differential prior precision among an increasingly diverse set of investors following large firms.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study provides evidence regarding the effects of online trading on stock market reactions to quarterly earnings announcements. We test for differences in stock price and volume reactions to quarterly earnings announcements between a period with a significant amount of online trading (1996-1999) and a period without online trading (1992-1995). We conjecture that online trading has increased the proportion of naive investors in the market. Based on noisy rational expectations models of trade, we predict that this will result in larger stock price and trading volume reactions to earnings announcements. We find strong evidence in support of these predictions. The stock price results suggest that the advent of online trading has decreased average prior precision and the trading volume results suggest that online trading has increased differential belief revisions around earnings announcements. An analysis of the relation between volume reactions and price reactions in both periods suggests that the increase in differential belief revisions is primarily due to an increase in the differential interpretation of earnings announcements in the online trading period. Our findings are relevant for assessing the validity of concerns about online trading expressed by regulators and the validity of theoretical models of trade with asymmetrically informed investors.
Download or read book A Theory of Trading Volume Around Earnings Announcements written by Seok Woo Jeong and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kim and Verrecchia (1994) provide a model of trade to explain trading volume around public disclosure which is assumed to be earnings announcement. However, their characterization of information is too general and has no relationship with the accounting information structure. Ohlson (1995) provides a fundamental valuation model that exploits the accounting relationship of earnings, book value, and dividends, but no implication can be made on the trading volume around earnings announcements from his model. We impose an information structure on the Kim and Verrecchia (1994) model whereby some market participants estimate fundamental value of the firm according to Ohlson's (1995) valuation model but differ in their assessment of permanent and transitory components of earnings. Our results demonstrate a positive relation between abnormal earnings and both trading volume and price changes around earnings announcements.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically examines the incremental relation between trading volume surrounding quarterly earnings announcements and institutional holdings. Consistent with Cready (1988) and Lee (1992), we find a significant positive relation between abnormal trading volume and the fraction of institutional ownership during the period immediatly following an earnings announcement, after controlling for the magnitude of the associated price reaction and the dispersion of analysts' EPS forecasts.

This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1.1, EBS European Business School gGmbH (Finance), language: English, abstract: Many authors have already studied about stock price reactions after earnings announcements yet, which is because of the importance of earnings announcements, in particular quarterly earnings announcements, for many investors. However, all major studies concerning this topic deal with long-term scenarios, the stock’s price performance is measured for a time period of at least three quarters. Due to the fact that there are many investors, especially institutional investors such as hedge funds that trade stocks much more frequently, the existing studies are not relevant for them. This paper studies stock price reactions around quarterly earnings announcements for companies listed in Deutscher Aktienindex (DAX) or Midcap DAX (MDAX) with respect to changes of the company’s full-year outlook and of earnings surprise regarding analyst consensus forecast within ten days before and after the announcement date. Hence, this paper aims to analyse short-term reaction to quarterly earnings announcements, which are of relevance for all investors, whose investment strategy is, at least partially, focussing on the short-term performance. The main target group of this analysis are therefore hedge funds and investors that run short-term strategies. Due to the fact that the widespread Event Study Methodology is focused on the long-term, it is irrelevant for this analysis.

This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the association between disagreement coincident with earnings announcements and investors' trading decisions. Theory suggests that trading volume arises because of investor disagreement, but disagreement is a multi-faceted construct. We find that three distinctlydifferent aspects of disagreement each play an incremental role in explaining trading volume around earnings announcements, even after controlling for the magnitude of the contemporaneous price change. These aspects of disagreement are: dispersion in prior beliefs, divergence in beliefs, and belief jumbling. Dispersion in prior beliefs is the cross-sectional variation in expectations before the earnings announcement, divergence in beliefs is the change in the dispersion in beliefs, and belief jumbling occurs when investors' beliefs change positions relative to each other. Our results indicate that each of these three aspects of disagreement coincident with earnings announcements affects investors' real economic (i.e., trading) decisions.
