Book Price Reactions to Public Announcements

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We employ a parametric rational expectations equilibrium model to study the impact of public information releases on private information acquisition and asset prices in a large economy. We demonstrate that investors treat public information as a substitute for privately acquired information. Their attempts to substitute public for private information can amplify or even reverse the effect of public information releases on price volatility. The direction of the resulting change in price volatility is dependent on the level of public information regarding asset payoffs, the variance of asset payoffs, and the extent of supply shocks, implying that firms may differ in their optimal information release policies.

Book Stock Price Reaction to Quarterly Earnings Announcements with respect of outlook changes and deviation to consensus forecast

Download or read book Stock Price Reaction to Quarterly Earnings Announcements with respect of outlook changes and deviation to consensus forecast written by Benjamin Schmitt and published by GRIN Verlag. 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.

Book Effect of Option Listing on Price Reactions to Earnings Announcements

Download or read book Effect of Option Listing on Price Reactions to Earnings Announcements written by Sunyoung Kim and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effect of option listing on the stock-price response to quarterly earnings announcements. We find that option trading reduces the magnitude of the pre-earnings announcement drift. We also present evidence that firms with options exhibit more intensive price reactions to earnings news than firms without options. In addition, we show that the magnitude of the post-earnings announcement drift is smaller for option firms than non-option firms. These results suggest that the existence of traded options increases the speed of stock price adjustment. Overall, our results reinforce the notion that option listing improves the informational efficiency in equity markets. In addition, our results are consistent with the view that transactions costs cause a delayed price response in the post-earnings announcement period.

Book Exchange Rate Dynamics

Download or read book Exchange Rate Dynamics written by Martin D. D. Evans and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-14 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive and in-depth look at exchange-rate dynamics Variations in the foreign exchange market influence all aspects of the world economy, and understanding these dynamics is one of the great challenges of international economics. This book provides a new, comprehensive, and in-depth examination of the standard theories and latest research in exchange-rate economics. Covering a vast swath of theoretical and empirical work, the book explores established theories of exchange-rate determination using macroeconomic fundamentals, and presents unique microbased approaches that combine the insights of microstructure models with the macroeconomic forces driving currency trading. Macroeconomic models have long assumed that agents—households, firms, financial institutions, and central banks—all have the same information about the structure of the economy and therefore hold the same expectations and uncertainties regarding foreign currency returns. Microbased models, however, look at how heterogeneous information influences the trading decisions of agents and becomes embedded in exchange rates. Replicating key features of actual currency markets, these microbased models generate a rich array of empirical predictions concerning trading patterns and exchange-rate dynamics that are strongly supported by data. The models also show how changing macroeconomic conditions exert an influence on short-term exchange-rate dynamics via their impact on currency trading. Designed for graduate courses in international macroeconomics, international finance, and finance, and as a go-to reference for researchers in international economics, Exchange-Rate Dynamics guides readers through a range of literature on exchange-rate determination, offering fresh insights for further reading and research. Comprehensive and in-depth examination of the latest research in exchange-rate economics Outlines theoretical and empirical research across the spectrum of modeling approaches Presents new results on the importance of currency trading in exchange-rate determination Provides new perspectives on long-standing puzzles in exchange-rate economics End-of-chapter questions cement key ideas

Book The Effect of Short Selling on Market Reactions to Earnings Announcements

Download or read book The Effect of Short Selling on Market Reactions to Earnings Announcements written by Dennis Lasser and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the effect of the inherent demand implied by short interest by observing price reactions to earnings announcements based on the level of short interest. We find that for extreme good- and bad- news events, the inherent demand increases stock prices around the earnings announcement date, with the effect being stronger for good news relative to bad news. Specifically, the initial market reaction to an extreme positive earnings surprise is larger for firms with high levels of short interest. On the other hand, for an extreme negative earnings surprise event, the initial market reaction is smaller for heavily shorted firms. Furthermore, the initial rightward demand curve shift caused by the short sellers' reaction to an extreme good (bad) news event also results in a smaller (larger) post-earnings-announcement drift.

Book Informed Short Sellers and Stock Price Reactions to Earnings Announcements

Download or read book Informed Short Sellers and Stock Price Reactions to Earnings Announcements written by Guojun Wang and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the special event of short selling ban removal in the Chinese stock market in March 2010, I study the relationship between short selling activities and future stock returns and the effect of short sale constraints on stock price reactions to earnings announcements. I find strong evidence supporting the Diamond and Verrecchia (1987) hypothesis that an unexpected increase in short interest predicts negative future stock returns. The long-short portfolio that buys stocks with a decline or no change in short interest and shorts stocks with an increase in short interest is able to generate a significant positive return in the following week. The positive return is strongest during the first two days, is most significant in three industries: properties, conglomerates, and industrials, is highest for big firms, growth stocks, and stocks with high short interest. Moreover, I also confirm the Diamond and Verrecchia (1987) prediction that reducing short sale constraints leads to smaller price adjustments on the private information announcement day as the stock price reaction to earnings surprises on earnings announcement day is found to be 70% lower after the short sale ban is removed. However, I don't find evidence supporting their prediction that the reduction in price reaction is larger when negative news is released due to data limitations.

Book Expecting to Be Surprised

Download or read book Expecting to Be Surprised written by Katrina Ellis and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been well-documented that prices respond quickly, if not completely, to the information in quarterly earnings announcements. In this paper we show that after conditioning on past earnings surprises, companies that meet analyst expectations have positive (negative) returns following a prior negative (positive) surprise. We attribute this price response to investors expecting to be surprised, in that they expect past earnings surprises to continue into the future. As meeting expectations is a reversal of the surprise trend, the investors react to this new information by reversing the price trend. The price response to meeting earnings forecasts appears to be due to investor overreaction, with subsequent returns undoing the overreaction.

Book Can Technical Analysis Signals Detect Price Reactions Around Earnings Announcement

Download or read book Can Technical Analysis Signals Detect Price Reactions Around Earnings Announcement written by Dedhy Sulistiawan and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines whether technical analysis signals can detect price reactions before and after earnings announcement dates in Indonesian stock market. Earnings announcements produce reactions, both before and after the announcements. Informed investors may use private information before earnings announcements (Christophe, Ferri and Angel, 2004; Porter, 1992). Using technical analysis signals, this study expects that retail investors (uninformed investors) can detect preannouncements reaction. Technical analysis is selected because it is a powerful strategy, especially in developing stock market (Fifield, Power, and Sinclair, 2005; Ahmed, Beck, and Goldreyer, 2000), including Indonesia (McKenzie, 2007). This study also examines technical analysis signals after earnings announcements. Using the idea that preannouncements reaction absorb post announcements reactions, this study expect that technical analysis signals difficult to detect price reaction after earnings announcements. Using Indonesian data over 2007-2011, the results show that technical analysis signal before earnings announcements can produce profit, but signals after earnings announcements do not produce same results. Using several different measures of return, the results are statistically robust. Based on those results, this study concludes that technical analysis signal can detect reaction before announcements, but the signals don't work after earnings announcements. These findings contribute to accounting and technical analysis literatures.

Book Trading Volume Reactions to Earnings Announcements and Future Firm Performance

Download or read book Trading Volume Reactions to Earnings Announcements and Future Firm Performance written by Doron Israeli and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. 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.

Book Price Formation and Liquidity in the U S  Treasury Market

Download or read book Price Formation and Liquidity in the U S Treasury Market written by Michael J. Fleming and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival of public information in the U.S. Treasury market sets off a two-stage adjustment process for prices, trading volume, and bid-ask spreads. In a brief first stage, the release of a major macroeconomic announcement induces a sharp and nearly instantaneous price change with a reduction in trading volume, demonstrating that price reactions to public information do not require trading. The bid-ask spread widens dramatically at announcement, evidently driven by inventory control concerns. In a prolonged second stage, trading volume surges, price volatility persists, and bid-ask spreads remain moderately wide as investors trade to reconcile residual differences in their private views.
