Download or read book The Liquidity Effects of S P 500 Additions written by John B. McDermott and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We argue that the addition of a stock to the Samp;P 500 index leads to an increase in the volume of liquidity-motivated trading in the stock by index investors. This, in turn, lowers the cost of supplying liquidity and generates abnormal returns. Consistent with this argument, we document a permanent increase in the liquidity of stocks added to the Samp;P 500 index. Specifically, the median quoted and effective spreads decrease and the median quoted depth, trading volume and trade frequencies increase over three months following listing. The improvement in liquidity is due primarily to a decrease in the median direct cost of transacting and a smaller decline in the median asymmetric information cost of transacting. Further, we find that the event period cumulative abnormal returns are strongly associated with the decrease in the direct cost of transacting. These findings provide strong support for a liquidity-based explanation for the observed wealth effect due to Samp;P 500 listing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate the long-term effects of S&P 500 index additions and deletions on a sample of stocks from 1962 to 2003 and find a significant long-term price increase for both added and deleted stocks, with deleted stocks outperforming added stocks. The long-term price increase for added stocks can be attributed to increases in institutional ownership, liquidity, and analyst coverage, and a decrease in the shadow cost in the long-term. However, while deletion has no significant effect on analyst coverage and shadow cost, we find a rebound in the institutional ownership and liquidity of deleted stocks. The difference in the long-term price increase of added and deleted stocks can be explained by analyst coverage and operating performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liquidity and Asset Prices reviews the literature that studies the relationship between liquidity and asset prices. The authors review the theoretical literature that predicts how liquidity affects a security's required return and discuss the empirical connection between the two. Liquidity and Asset Prices surveys the theory of liquidity-based asset pricing followed by the empirical evidence. The theory section proceeds from basic models with exogenous holding periods to those that incorporate additional elements of risk and endogenous holding periods. The empirical section reviews the evidence on the liquidity premium for stocks, bonds, and other financial assets.

Download or read book Information Volatility and the Cost of Capital written by Tanguy de Launois and published by Presses univ. de Louvain. This book was released on 2009 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have in mind a couple of dramatic examples of how information released by some economical or political entity resulted in tremendous consequences for a private company or, worst, for the whole financial market. This is the purpose of this dissertation to investigate the relations between information,stock volatility and the cost of capital. After the extension of the standard CAPM model to a more realistic world where some investors are “constrained” and deviate from their optimal CAPM quantities, we confront our theoretical model to the empirical reality by investigating the so-called “index effect”. Thanks to econometric specifications robust to endogeneity, we test different hypotheses proposed by the literature to explain this well known value premium of firms belonging to large indices. In a next step, we investigate how the quality and quantity of micro and macro public signals impact the main determinants of our pricing equation initially developed. We show that in a world of constrained investors, firms benefiting from a high deviation have less incentive to communicate than others. Finally, we study the link between public information and conditional volatility thanks to an original sample of several tens of thousands of Reuters and Dow Jones news releases on both the French and US markets. Thanks to various econometric specifications like GARCH models and Markov Switching Regressions, we conclude that a larger daily number of news releases increases the probability to be in the high probability regime and that the impact ofinformation is strongly dependent on the topic and the timing of the release of this information.
Download or read book Additions to Market Indices and the Comovement of Stock Returns Around the World written by Yishay Yafeh and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using newly-constructed data covering the last decade, we document that, in most of forty markets, when added to the main index, firms’ returns experience an increase in comovement with the rest of the index, reflected in higher beta and greater explanatory power of the market return. Stock turnover and analyst coverage also typically increase upon inclusion. Using various tests, we find the demand-based view of comovement (the category/habitat theories of Barberis, Shleifer and Wurgler, 2005) to provide a good explanation for many of our findings. Some results, though, suggest that information-related factors are also important in explaining the increased comovement.
