Compared to the typical smile regression with moneyness alone, about 50% of the remaining errors can be attributed to movements in the underlying index.A Simple Way to Estimate Bid-Ask Spreads...

| Published / Preprint: Rollover Risk and Credit Risk Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTOur model shows that deterioration in debt market liquidity leads to an increase in not only the liquidity premium of corporate bonds but also credit risk. The latter effect originates from firms’ debt rollover. When liquidity deterioration causes a firm to suffer losses in rolling over its maturing debt, equity holders bear the losses while maturing debt holders are paid in full. This...

| Published / Preprint: Are Stocks Really Less Volatile in the Long Run? Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTAccording to conventional wisdom, annualized volatility of stock returns is lower over long horizons than over short horizons, due to mean reversion induced by return predictability. In contrast, we find that stocks are substantially more volatile over long horizons from an investor’s perspective. This perspective recognizes that parameters are uncertain, even with two centuries of... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
| Published / Preprint: The Secondary Market for Hedge Funds and the Closed Hedge Fund Premium Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTRational theories of the closedâ€end fund premium puzzle highlight fund share and asset illiquidity, managerial ability, and fees as important determinants of the premium. Several of these attributes are difficult to measure for mutual funds, and easier to measure for hedge funds. This paper employs new data from a secondary market for hedge funds, discovers a closedâ€hedge fund premium... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
| Published / Preprint: Hedge Funds and Chapter 11 Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTThis paper studies the presence of hedge funds in the Chapter 11 process and their effects on bankruptcy outcomes. Hedge funds strategically choose positions in the capital structure where their actions could have a bigger impact on value. Their presence, especially as unsecured creditors, helps balance power between the debtor and secured creditors. Their effect on the debtor manifests...

| Published / Preprint: Don't Believe the Hype: Local Media Slant, Local Advertising, and Firm Value Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTWhen local media report news about local companies, they use fewer negative words compared to the same media reporting about nonlocal companies. We document that one reason for this positive slant is the firms’ local media advertising expenditures. Abnormal positive local media slant strongly relates to firm equity values. The effect is stronger for small firms; firms held predominantly... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
| Published / Preprint: Selective Publicity and Stock Prices Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTI examine how media coverage of good and bad corporate news affects stock prices, by studying the effect of investor relations (IR) firms. I find that IR firms “spin†their clients’ news, generating more media coverage of positive press releases than negative press releases. This spin increases announcement returns. Around earnings announcements, however, IR firms cannot spin the... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
| Published / Preprint: Individual Investor Trading and Return Patterns around Earnings Announcements Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTThis paper provides evidence of informed trading by individual investors around earnings announcements using a unique data set of NYSE stocks. We show that intense aggregate individual investor buying (selling) predicts large positive (negative) abnormal returns on and after earnings announcement dates. We decompose abnormal returns following the event into information and liquidity... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
| Published / Preprint: Carry Trades and Global Foreign Exchange Volatility Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTWe investigate the relation between global foreign exchange (FX) volatility risk and the cross section of excess returns arising from popular strategies that borrow in low interest rate currencies and invest in high interest rate currencies, soâ€called “carry trades.†We find that high interest rate currencies are negatively related to innovations in global FX volatility, and thus...

| Published / Preprint: A Simple Way to Estimate BidâAsk Spreads from Daily High and Low Prices Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTWe develop a bidâ€ask spread estimator from daily high and low prices. Daily high (low) prices are almost always buy (sell) trades. Hence, the highâ€"low ratio reflects both the stock's variance and its bidâ€ask spread. Although the variance component of the highâ€"low ratio is proportional to the return interval, the spread component is not. This allows us to derive a spread estimator...

| Published / Preprint: Share Issuance and Factor Timing Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT ABSTRACTWe show that characteristics of stock issuers can be used to forecast important common factors in stocks' returns such as those associated with bookâ€toâ€market, size, and industry. Specifically, we use differences between the attributes of stock issuers and repurchasers to forecast characteristicâ€related factor returns. For example, we show that large firms underperform after years... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |

| Published / Preprint: Liquidity, the Value of the Firm, and Corporate Finance* Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT The theory of corporate finance has been based on the idea that a company's market value is determined mainly by just two variables: the company's expected aftertax operating cash flows or earnings, and the risk associated with producing them. The authors argue that there is another important factor affecting a company's value: the liquidity of its own securities, debt as well as equity. The...

| Posted: 05 Apr 2012 11:37 PM PDT Cash reserve requirements are useful as a broadly conceived prudential tool, not just as a narrowly focused means of limiting the risks associated with illiquidity. Indeed, illiquidity risk is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for establishing bank liquidity requirements. The primary means of mitigating the systemic costs of bank illiquidity risk is the creation of an effective... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article.    |
