The studies of Farris et al (1989), Verbeke et al (1994), Cadeaux and Tan (2004), and Wilbur and Farris (2007) have provided several insights into the distribution-market share relationship for several different product classes. The objective of the present study is to model the relationship between the distribution network and market share of a class of cardio-vascular pharmaceutical drugs. The model proposed is an extension of that of Farris et al (1989), expressing distribution as a function of market share, as the products in question are largely subject to a “pull” effect. The model empirically assesses the “pull” and “push” effects for the given class of products, and allows distribution planning for the same.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"247 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121675893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An important question arises, however, as to whether the TCE framework is equally appropriate for all types of firms in all business settings. In this paper, we argue that TCE is not and suggest that firms with high market power may be able to lower transaction costs under high asset specificity and uncertainty in non-integrated distribution channels, avoiding the need to utilize highly integrated channels as a result. We test our hypotheses with data collected from 40 manufacturers of electronic and telecommunications products in 109 product-markets in the U.S. The results support our hypothesis that transaction cost factors are better at explaining forward channel integration for firms with low market power than for firms with high market power. Our results indicate that the basic TCE framework must be supplemented by the market power construct to adequately explain forward channel integration decisions.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"285 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123099120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find evidence of spillover effects, that is, a ratings change in one country has a significant effect on sovereign credit spreads of other countries. This effect is asymmetric: positive ratings events abroad have no discernable impact on sovereign spreads, whereas negative ratings events are associated with an increase in spreads. On average, a one-notch downgrade of a sovereign bond is associated with a 12 basis point increase in spreads of sovereign bonds of other countries. Interestingly, the magnitude of the spillover effect following a negative ratings change is amplified by recent ratings changes in other countries. We distinguish between common information and differential components of spillovers. While common information spillovers imply that sovereign spreads move in tandem, differential spillovers are expected to result in opposite effects of ratings events across countries. Despite the predominance of common information spillovers, we also find evidence of differential spillovers among countries with highly negatively correlated capital flows or trade flows vis-a-vis the United States. That is, spreads in these countries generally fall in response to a downgrade of a country with highly negatively correlated capital or trade flows. Variables proxying for cultural or institutional linkages (e.g., common language, formal trade blocs, common-law legal systems), physical proximity, or rule of law traditions across countries do not seem to affect estimated spillover effects.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129264716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For such acquisitions, it may be just as important to block competitors from getting the technology as it is to obtain the technology. If a firm will be adversely affected by a competitor's acquisition, then it can rationally \"overpay\" for the target to avoid this outcome within a value-maximizing framework. We study the behavior of two bidders that enter a bidding contest for the target where the contest is modelled as a second-price auction with costly losing. In contrast to most of the existing literature, the model supports various outcomes that are consistent with empirical evidence within a rational and value-maximizing framework. The model reconciles two empirical regularities: Mergers increase value through synergies, and acquirors earn zero or negative returns on average. It also is consistent with the recent empirical evidence suggesting that mergers come in response to an economic change, and tend to cluster within industries.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"161 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124506667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the population of monthly short interest data over the period of June 1988 through December 1994 we find that firms with high short interest experience significant negative abnormal returns ranging from -0.76% to -1.13% per month during the period over which they are heavily shorted. In contrast to results in Aitken et al. (1998) that show that information in short interest is incorporated quickly into prices for Australian stocks, we find that information in short interest is incorporated gradually into prices for Nasdaq stocks. The negative excess returns are increasing in the level of short interest indicating that a higher level of short interest is a stronger signal. Consistent with short interest being a bearish signal, we find that the heavily shorted firms get delisted with a higher frequency relative to their size and industry matched control firms.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121954499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One explanation is that these firms suboptimally invest by subsidizing poor performing business segments with resources from profitable business segments. On average, firms may indeed have internal capital markets that diminish firm value; however, it is also possible that internal capital markets add to firm value by relieving liquidity constraints. We examine the link between firm value and the value of internal capital markets using a relatively new form of corporate restructuring called tracking stock. We present a model that illustrates that the announcement effect of a tracking stock equity restructuring conveys information about the market's assessment of the value of a firm's internal capital market. We develop a direct measure of the profitability of the internal capital market, and we find a strong positive relation between it and tracking stock announcement effects, a finding consistent with our model.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"244 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126827475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Puelz","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.141356","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.141356","url":null,"abstract":"Portfolio selection techniques must provide decision makers with a dynamic model framework that incorporates realistic assumptions regarding financial markets, risk preferences, and required portfolio characteristics. Unfortunately, multistage stochastic programming (SP) models for portfolio selection very quickly become intractable as assumptions are relaxed and uncertainty is introduced. In this paper, I present an alternative model framework for portfolio selection, stochastic convergence (SC), that systematically incorporates uncertainty under a realistic assumption set. The optimal portfolio is derived through an iterative procedure, where portfolio plans are evaluated under many possible future scenarios then revised until the model converges to the optimal plan. This approach allows for scenario analysis over all stochastic components, requires no limitation on the structural form of the objective or constraints, and permits evaluation over any length planning horizon while maintaining model tractability by aggregating the scenario tree at each stage in the solution process. Through focused aggregation schemes, the SC approach allows for the implementation of a lower partial variance riskmetric, which is preferred in investment selection. In simulated tests, the SC model, with scenario aggregation, generated portfolios exhibiting performance similar to those generated using the SP model form with no aggregation. Empirical tests using historical fund returns show that a multiperiod SC decision strategy outperforms various benchmarkstrate gies over a long-term test horizon under both asset-liability matching and return maximization frameworks.","PeriodicalId":254025,"journal":{"name":"SMU Cox School of Business Research Paper Series","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116201497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
