Abstract
Using a sample of CSI300 over the 2006–2021 period to establish liquidity spillover networks, we find a significantly negative relationship between liquidity connectedness and stock price crash risk. Further analysis shows that liquidity connectedness depresses stock price crash risk through two potential channels: increased conditional conservatism and decreased stock price synchronicity. Moreover, this effect is more prominent for firms with effective external monitoring, firms with lower risk-taking, and state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Overall, our paper shows that liquidity connectedness is an important factor influencing crash risk and provides useful guidance for corporate management and investor decision-making.
期刊介绍:
The focus of the North-American Journal of Economics and Finance is on the economics of integration of goods, services, financial markets, at both regional and global levels with the role of economic policy in that process playing an important role. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcome. Empirical and policy-related papers that rely on data and the experiences of countries outside North America are also welcome. Papers should offer concrete lessons about the ongoing process of globalization, or policy implications about how governments, domestic or international institutions, can improve the coordination of their activities. Empirical analysis should be capable of replication. Authors of accepted papers will be encouraged to supply data and computer programs.
