In particular, when the turnover of city heads occurs, SOEs are able to obtain a larger amount of external financing at lower costs than non-SOEs. Additionally, SOEs that file invention patents at the height of local policy uncertainty have better product market performances.

Moreover, the effect is much stronger in small firms. We demonstrate that the tax-loss selling and window dressing hypotheses cannot explain the turn-of-the-year effect in China. Instead, the turn-of-the-year effect in trading volume and buy orders help to explain the strong lunar January effect. As a falsification test, we examine the B-share market that is predominantly composed of foreign investors and find no evidence of the lunar January effect.

Our cross-sectional analyses show that peers' innovation tone strongly affects R&amp;D investments when the focal firm operates in a non-high-tech or highly competitive industry, or is readily willing to adjust its innovation strategy.

Our results show that the trading information flow among these three markets has changed significantly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The strength of volatility spillover is increasing during this momentous period. The Hong Kong stock market plays a pivotal role in volatility transmission.
