摘要

本研究考察了股票流动性与企业现金持有量之间的关系，并探讨了驱动这种关系的一种新的经济机制。采用基于罗素1000/2000指数年度重构的回归不连续设计方法，我们发现股票流动性对企业现金持有量具有正因果效应。这种效应对于拥有更多投资机会的公司更为明显。这些结果表明，股票流动性的增强通过扩大投资机会集来增加企业的现金持有量。我们的证据支持真实投资动机优于回购动机。

The effect of stock liquidity on corporate cash holdings: The real investment motive

This study examines the relationship between stock liquidity and corporate cash holdings and explores a new economic mechanism driving this relationship. Using a regression discontinuity design approach based on the annual reconstitution of the Russell 1000/2000 indices, we find that stock liquidity has a positive causal effect on corporate cash holdings. This effect is more pronounced for firms with more investment opportunities. These results suggest that enhanced stock liquidity increases corporate cash holdings by expanding the set of investment opportunities. Our evidence supports the real investment motive over the repurchase motive.
