Numerical findings illustrate that firms with different learning speeds exhibit distinct investment strategies: those with slower learning speeds tend to invest large proportion in the early time of first stage and invest the rest of small proportion in the later time of second stage, whereas firms with faster learning speeds invest small proportion in the early time of first stage and invest the rest of large proportion in the later time of second stage, compared to traditional one-stage investments. Leveraging the flexibility provided by two-stage learning investment, firms can effectively utilize timing and scale options, as emphasized in previous research. Furthermore, the proposed model addresses instances of learning investments with losses that cannot be accounted for by one-stage approaches.</p>","PeriodicalId":47688,"journal":{"name":"Review of Quantitative Finance and Accounting","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141611476","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}

Among DAs, cryptocurrencies (CCs) have emerged as the most liquid asset class, holding this distinction for almost a decade. However, while CCs offer a high level of liquidity, investors must be aware of the potential risks and rewards associated with investing in this asset class, and should conduct a thorough evaluation before making any investment decisions. Our study examines the risk profile of CCs through portfolio analysis, utilizing Spectral Risk Measures (SRMs) as the commonly applied method. In this study, we investigate the application of SRMs in assessing the risk structure of CC portfolios, and their alignment with investors’ risk preferences. We employ SRMs to evaluate the CC index CRIX and portfolios constructed from the most liquid 10 CCs from the Blockchain Research Center (BRC), optimizing different SRMs.Our empirical findings suggest that various optimal portfolio allocations can be formulated to meet the unique risk appetites of individual investors.

Meanwhile, insurers reshuffling their underwriting and investments significantly change their capital.

Top tier advisors are more likely to be employed in debt financed and cross-border deals. We also find that most European bank mergers are managed in-house, contrary to prior findings reporting mostly externally managed deals attributed to the certification effect.

Both theories are required to fully explain stock buybacks. As per the signaling theory, we find that the announcement period returns are positive for stock buybacks, which indicates that the buyback firms’ stock is undervalued. Furthermore, consistent with agency theory, we also find that the announcement period returns are higher for firms with low growth opportunities and high free cash flow. We also examine buyback firms' long-run stock price performance for 12 months, 24 months, and 36 months following the buyback. We use the Fama–French five-factor model to study the long-run stock performance of buyback firms because of its better explanatory power than the three-factor model. Low growth-high free cash flow firms tend to outperform their benchmark portfolios during this period. Recent regulations such as the Stock Buyback Tax can discourage low growth firms from conducting stock buybacks, which could increase agency costs.</p>","PeriodicalId":47688,"journal":{"name":"Review of Quantitative Finance and Accounting","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141501041","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}

In this study, we investigate the impact of carbon emissions on the market reaction to announcements of corporate restructuring activities.

Our results indicate that emissions are negatively associated with cumulative abnormal returns (CAR), cumulative total returns (CTR), and buy and hold abnormal returns (BHAR) around announcements. This effect is more pronounced for firms with a lower risk of bankruptcy, those financially constrained, and those with lower growth opportunities.

We employ both a stock’s extreme return momentum and extreme trading volume to capture firm-level investor favoritism (neglect), which reflects firm-level investor overpricing (underpricing) due to investor sentiment. We find that both external financing and capital expenditure decisions are positively (negatively) associated with favoritism (neglect) and that the previously documented negative association between future stock returns and external financing is more pronounced in periods of favoritism. However, we find no association between future stock returns and capital expenditures after controlling for external financing.
