Short-selling probability increases substantially when ESG events are expected within seven trading days. Short positions rise systematically in the five pre-event days, with minimal post-disclosure adjustment. Placebo tests based on bootstrap method confirm these patterns reflect genuine anticipation rather than random variation.

In addition, the degree of equity balance has a significant positive moderating effect on the relationship between the Social Credit System reform and corporate resilience.

The study finds that data assetization significantly enhances the efficiency of corporate capital pricing. Furthermore, financing constraints play a moderating role in the relationship between data assetization and capital pricing efficiency—specifically, the greater the financing constraints, the more pronounced the positive effect of data assetization on capital pricing efficiency.
