Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Hamburg, language: English, abstract: This study uses OLS regressions to analyze the impact of institutional ownership (IO) investment horizons on stock price synchronicity and crash risk for a sample of U.S. companies. Two main hypotheses are tested: (1) long-term (short-term) IO (LTIO) (STIO) are negatively (positively) related to stock price synchronicity, and (2) long-term (short-term) IO are negatively (positively) related stock price crash risk. Stock price synchronicity (SYNCH) measures how much firm-specific returns align with overall market returns, while crash risk (NCSKEW, DUVOL, COUNT) indicates the likelihood of a sudden, significant price drop. The theory posits that short-term investors, more prone to sell shares, provide weaker oversight, giving managers more freedom to influence cash flows and increasing synchronicity. In contrast, long-term investors establish stronger management relationships, reducing synchronicity through enhanced oversight. The findings reveal that both long-term and short-term IO positively impact synchronicity, contradicting the hypothesis for long-term IO. This aligns with literature suggesting institutional investors use superior information mainly for trading rather than management engagement. For crash risk, results support the agency theory: long-term IO is associated with reduced crash risk due to better monitoring, while short-term IO correlates with higher crash risk due to frequent trading and weaker oversight. These findings align with prior research, indicating that bad news is disclosed under long-term monitoring, causing abrupt price drops. During the 2008 financial crisis, average crash risk was significantly higher, especially for financial firms. The interaction between IO horizons and the crisis suggests complex dynamics needing further study, particularly the negative interaction of long-term and aggregated IO during recessions. Robustness checks, including firm fixed-effects regressions and variable changes, confirm primary findings but suggest cautious interpretation for long-term IO results. Limitations include a relatively short observation period (2000-2017), potential measurement biases in tax avoidance proxies (long-run cash effective tax rate (LRETR)), and unaddressed endogeneity concerns. Future research should explore evolving ownership structures, corporate social responsibility, and impacts of recent disruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic on crash risk.

Download or read book Capitalizing China written by Joseph P. H. Fan and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : "Despite a vast accumulation of private capital, China is not embracing capitalism. Deceptively familiar capitalist features disguise the profoundly unfamiliar foundations of "market socialism with Chinese characteristics." The Chinese Communist Party (CCP), by controlling the career advancement of all senior personnel in all regulatory agencies, all state-owned enterprises (SOEs), and virtually all major financial institutions state-owned enterprises (SOEs), and senior Party positions in all but the smallest non-SOE enterprises, retains sole possession of Lenin's Commanding Heights. The chapters in this volume examine China's high savings rate, banking system, financial markets, financial regulations, corporate governance, and public finances; and consider policy alternatives the CCP might consider if its goal is China's elevation into the ranks of high income countries."
Download or read book Why Stock Markets Crash written by Didier Sornette and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scientific study of complex systems has transformed a wide range of disciplines in recent years, enabling researchers in both the natural and social sciences to model and predict phenomena as diverse as earthquakes, global warming, demographic patterns, financial crises, and the failure of materials. In this book, Didier Sornette boldly applies his varied experience in these areas to propose a simple, powerful, and general theory of how, why, and when stock markets crash. Most attempts to explain market failures seek to pinpoint triggering mechanisms that occur hours, days, or weeks before the collapse. Sornette proposes a radically different view: the underlying cause can be sought months and even years before the abrupt, catastrophic event in the build-up of cooperative speculation, which often translates into an accelerating rise of the market price, otherwise known as a "bubble." Anchoring his sophisticated, step-by-step analysis in leading-edge physical and statistical modeling techniques, he unearths remarkable insights and some predictions--among them, that the "end of the growth era" will occur around 2050. Sornette probes major historical precedents, from the decades-long "tulip mania" in the Netherlands that wilted suddenly in 1637 to the South Sea Bubble that ended with the first huge market crash in England in 1720, to the Great Crash of October 1929 and Black Monday in 1987, to cite just a few. He concludes that most explanations other than cooperative self-organization fail to account for the subtle bubbles by which the markets lay the groundwork for catastrophe. Any investor or investment professional who seeks a genuine understanding of looming financial disasters should read this book. Physicists, geologists, biologists, economists, and others will welcome Why Stock Markets Crash as a highly original "scientific tale," as Sornette aptly puts it, of the exciting and sometimes fearsome--but no longer quite so unfathomable--world of stock markets.
Download or read book Stock Price Crash Risk written by Ahsan Habib and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We survey the burgeoning literature on the determinants of future stock price crash risk in the US, as well as in countries outside the US. Stock price crash risk, a manifestation of extreme negative values in the distribution of firm-specific returns, has attracted considerable research interests. According to Jin and Myers (2006), when cash flow is lower than investors expect, managers hide the bad news in an effort to protect their jobs. However, when the accumulated bad news finally crosses a tipping point, managers release all the bad news at once, which then results in a stock price crash. We synthesize a vast body of literature on the determinants of crash risk, identify weaknesses, and offer future research opportunities. We categorize the determinants into: (i) financial reporting and corporate disclosures, (ii) managerial incentives and managerial characteristics, (iii) capital market transactions, (iv) corporate governance mechanisms, and (v) informal institutional mechanisms. Despite a large body of research into the determinants of crash risk, very little research attention has been directed towards understanding the consequences of stock price crash.

Download or read book The Equity Risk Premium written by Bradford Cornell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1999-05-26 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Thema Risikoprämie für Aktien (Equity Risk Premium) wird hier zum ersten Mal verständlich erklärt. Die Risikoprämie für Aktien stellt einen Renditeausgleich dar für das erhöhte Risiko, das ein Anleger bei der Investition in Aktien eingeht, im Vergleich zu einer Investition in risikofreie Staatsanleihen. Die Risikoprämie ist zwar von der Theorie her einfach, jedoch in der Praxis ein sehr komplexes Phänomen. Für Finanzentscheidungen ist es von größter Bedeutung, daß man das Prinzip der Risikoprämie versteht und es anwenden kann. Cornell erläutert das Thema Schritt für Schritt sehr anschaulich und ohne terminologischen Ballast. Zunächst wird die Risikoprämie im Zusammenhang mit der Geschichte des Aktienmarktes betrachtet. Der Haussemarkt der 90er dient dabei als Fallstudie. Cornell zeigt, welche Rückschlüsse man durch die Analyse der Risikoprämie im historischen Verlauf für den Aktienmarkt ziehen kann, z.B. ob Aktienkurse steigen oder fallen oder ob sich der Aktienmarkt verändert. Vorausschauende Schätzungen der Risikoprämie werden anhand verschiedener konkurrierender Modelle analysiert, wobei die Vorzüge der jeweiligen Methode mitbewertet werden. 'Equity Risk Premium' ist das erste Buch, das dieses wichtige Prinzip der Risiko-Nutzen-Analyse erschöpfend behandelt. Es vermittelt einen tiefen Einblick und deckt alle Grundlagen ab, damit Investoren fundierte Finanzentscheidungen treffen können. Ein absolutes Muß für institutionelle Anleger, Geldmanager und Finanzvorstände, die auf eine fundierte Marktanalyse zurückgreifen müssen. (06/99)
Download or read book Corporate Hedging Information Environment and Stock Price Crash Risk written by Jeong-Bon Kim and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the effect of corporate hedging on stock price crash risk. We test two competing hypotheses. Under the transparency hypothesis, hedging reduces a firm's information asymmetry and lowers crash risk. Under the opacity hypothesis, hedging decreases financial reporting quality and increases crash risk. Using a comprehensive sample of firms from 1996 to 2015, we find evidence in support of the transparency hypothesis. This result is robust to various sensitivity checks, including treatment model, difference-in-differences test, and subsample analysis. We further show that curbing bad news hoarding, curtailing overinvestment, and increasing breadth of ownership are potential channels through which hedging mitigates crash risk. Additional tests on securities class-action litigations provide consistent results.
