Expected earnings and stock price are important determinants of investors’ decision. This research is conducted to estimate earnings persistence and examine the relationship between sustainable earnings on price-to-earning (P/E) ratio based on financial statements’ information of 631 publicly listed non-financial companies on Vietnam’s stock market, by using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Logit function. The results show that earnings persistence depends on net operating assets growth, profit margin changes, operating asset turnover changes and past profitability. Besides, both the sustainable and unsustainable components of earnings growth are proved to empirically affect P/E ratio, even though investors underreact to sustainable earnings and overreact to unsustainable earnings. This study helps to improve investors’ perception of their future earnings, investment value and companies’ sustainable growth, particularly in the context of developing stock market of Vietnam which is full of market anomalies.

Based on province-level data on China’s local institutional environment from 2008 to 2014, we explore the relationship between the local institutional environment and stock price crash risk. We find that a stronger local institutional environment curbs stock price crash risk. Furthermore, we explore the relationship between local institutional environment and stock price crash risk for state-owned versus privately owned enterprises. We find that a stronger local institutional environment is more likely to curb stock price crash risk in state-owned enterprises than in privately owned enterprises. Our results are robust to additional tests. These findings suggest that it is necessary to accelerate the progress of local marketization in China to ensure the development of the stock market and a strong economy.

There has been constant debate about the predictability of the security markets. We examine the relationship between the prices of a stock and its convertible bond during the Hong Kong stock market bubble of 1997 and its subsequent crash. We find that the price behavior of the share and the convertible bond not only gave a clear signal of the market reversal, but also the minimum range of the stock price change. This example offers concrete evidence that the market becomes highly predictable at times and gives us a chance to understand the relationship of the underlying stock and its derivatives during market bubbles.

The main target of this study is to measure the relationship of macroeconomic factors to the volatility of the stock market in Vietnam (through stock price VN-index). There are four factors including the consumer price index (measure of inflation), the exchange rate of USD/VND and money supply M2. Research shows that the stock price VN-Index has a positive relationship with the money supply M2 and the domestic gold price in long term. On the contrary, it has a negative relationship with the inflation while it does not have any connection to the exchange rate and stock price index. In short term, the current stock price index has proportional to the stock price index last month and inversely proportional to the exchange rate. The estimated speed of adjustment indicates that the Vietnam stock market converges to the equilibrium about 8 months (adjusted approximately 13.04% per month) to reach equilibrium in the long term.

The role of institutional ownership in the financial markets became very important. However, until today there is no consensus among researchers about the influence of institutional ownership on the characteristic of stock market. Therefore, researchers are motivated to conduct further research the influence of institutional ownership on the characteristic of stock market. The research conducted at the Indonesian Stock Exchange with traded spread and adverse selection costs as dependent variable and institutional ownership as independent variable. In addition to institutional ownership, also used standard deviation of common stock price and trading volume as a control variable to clarify the relationship of institutional ownership on the characteristic of stock market. The study was conducted on 120 firms with observations in the period 2010-2011. All the required data obtained from the Indonesian Capital Market Directory. The results showed that: First, institutional ownership has a negative and significant effect on traded spread. Second, the variability of traded spread is able to be explained by the variability of institutional ownership, standard deviation of the stock price, and trading volume 24.8 percent. Third, institutional ownership has a negative and significant effect on adverse selection costs. Fourth, the variability of adverse selection costs is able to be explained by the variability of institutional ownership, standard deviation of the stock price, and trading volume 26.2 percent. Fifth, the relationship between institutional ownership to traded spread and adverse selection cost before and after entering the control variables remain negative and significant.

This study explores the relationship between Korean listed companies’ corporation social responsibility (CSR) activities and their sustainable growth and valuation, focusing specifically on the nonlinear aspect. The nonlinear quantile regressions used in this study reported that CSR activities increased corporation value exclusively in the middle-range groups (i.e., τ_25, τ_50, τ_75) of Tobin’s q, a proxy for corporation growth and value. However, the linear ordinary least squares (OLS) regression did not indicate similar results. Our findings also showed that CSR activities affect the valuation of Korean listed corporations in a nonlinear, rather than in a linear way. Considering that most prior studies are devoted to reporting linear results from classical ordinary least squares estimations between CSR activities and corporation value, our study fills the gap in the literature. The findings of this study may provide corporation managers and researchers with valuable data concerning a corporation’s optimal investment point for their CSR activities for sustainable growth and the maximization of corporation value.

We investigated whether post-earnings announcement drift (PEAD) in the Korean stock market is related to investor inertial behavior under a directional trend in market sentiment. Given that investors tend to procrastinate due to their belief in the persistence of the current market’s condition and thus underreact to earnings information, we examined whether this investor inertia influences the drift in stock price following an earnings announcement. Our findings show that when the market sentiment continues to shift upwardly (downwardly) over the pre- and post-earnings announcement period, positive (negative) drift occurs. Note that these results are robust to control for the effect of market sentiment at a specific point in time. We suggest that investors do not fully respond to new earnings information due to investor inertial behavior under the market sentiment with a consistent trend. Overall, our study sheds light on a determinant of PEAD as one of the market anomalies in terms of investors’ cognitive bias by documenting the relation between PEAD and investor inertia.

Nowadays, the internet changes the way for information searching and processing. Along with that, Google search had become the most popular search engine on the web since it allows users access to the information at a minimal cost. This study intends to investigate the relationship between Google search volume and the Malaysian stock market performance in the aspects of returns, volatility, and trading volume. The sample of this study consisted of 29 listed companies from the Malaysian stock market. The sample period of this study covered the period from 2016 to 2018. The data related to the stock market were downloaded from Investing.com, whereas the data related to Google search were downloaded from the database of Google Trend. The results indicated that the Google search volume index (GSVI) of the previous week tends to have significant positive impacts on the stock price changes. Thus, a higher search volume of the specific company name tends to increase the stock price of the particular company in the following week. Besides that, this study also revealed that the stock market performance tends to be affected by stock market performance in the previous week. Lastly, this study suggested that signals of GSVI need to be included in the investment strategies.

This research has two objectives: (1) to model and analyze the momentum effect and (2) to propose a portfolio-reconstruction algorithm that uses the momentum effect to obtain excess return. The momentum effect tends to be present in the stock market and describes the phenomenon whereby rising (declining) stocks tend to continue to rise (decline). However, because existing research does not separate momentum effects from stock price fluctuations, it is not always possible to obtain an excess return when working with an unknown dataset that contains a momentum effect. In this research, we define a new external-force momentum-effect (EFME) model based on bias in stock price rises (declines). We prepared an artificial stock dataset that contained this momentum effect and constructed a portfolio with the proposed algorithm. Then, we analyzed the relationship between the EFME model and excess return and verify that excess return is obtained. Additionally, we confirmed that the proposed method yields higher excess return than the existing method when applied to artificial and real stock datasets.
