In this paper, the authors examine the illegal insider trading volume and cumulative abnormal return by the relative variables of the amendment, the change of the securities price, the number of defendants, the penalty and the fine for insider who committed a crime, and the quality of concealed important information. Illegal insider trading is prohibited by the article 157-1 of Securities and Exchange Act in Taiwan. It has been amended three times to provide a sound and rigorous law and completely protect investors. The authors examine the illegal insider trading volume after the amendment to explore whether the Securities and Exchange Act is efficient enough to lower illegal insider trading. The authors find that the change of the securities price and the quality of concealed important information are the critical factors which affect the illegal insider trading volume and cumulative abnormal returns. Nevertheless, the relative variables of the amendment do not show significant effects

The aim of this article is to examine, on the example of companies whose shares are to be included into the WIG20 index portfolio, whether the index effect occurs on the Polish stock market. Based on the study event conducted in 2010–2014 (first quarter) it was demonstrated that abnormal positive returns of new index participants occurred mainly before the announcement of the information about the new index composition. Cumulative abnormal returns were observed for 9 out of 11 analysed companies and the average cumulative abnormal return amounted to 3.38%. This means that on the Polish stock market, like on the foreign markets examined earlier, there is an anomaly in the form of the index effect.

This study aims to examine the spillover effect of right offerings to the industry on the Indonesian Stock Exchange in the period 2009-2016. This study is designed using event study methodology. In total, there are 96 issuing companies (issuers) and 1205 non-issuing companies (non-issuers) used as the sample which was obtained using a purposive sampling technique. The test for information content on the right issues was conducted using standard t-test on the average cumulative abnormal return of issuers and non-issuers in the period t-10 to t+10 around the issuance. The research found positive abnormal returns for issuers in t0 to t+4 but did not confirm the spillover effect to non-issuers over the observed (window) periods. The average cumulative abnormal returns are randomly distributed during the window period. These results confirm the absence of intraindustry effect of right issues on the non-issuers’ performance

The study explores the correlation between the immediate and the longer-term stock returns following large daily price moves. Following the previous literature, which documents a tendency for price reversals after initial large price moves, I suggest that if a large stock price move is immediately followed by a short-term price drift, then it may indicate that the company-specific shock is more completely incorporated in the stock price, significantly increasing the probability of subsequent longer-term price reversal. Analyzing a vast sample of large stock price moves, I document that negative (positive) longer-term stock price reversals after large price increases (decreases) are significantly more pronounced if the latter are immediately followed by relatively high (low) short-term cumulative abnormal returns, that is, by short-term price drifts. The effect remains significant after accounting for additional company-specific (size, market model beta, historical, or conditional volatility) and event-specific (stock’s return and trading volume on the event day) factors.

This paper investigates whether insider purchasing or selling before Season equity offerings (SEO) announcement have the impact on the cumulative abnormal returns (CAR) around SEO announcement in Taiwan. We find that there are negative announcement effects around the SEO announcement, which is not consistent with the argument that there are usually positive announcement effects around the SEO announcement in Taiwan. Moreover, long-run abnormal returns following SEOs are negative. Therefore, the motivation of SEO has changed from investment to overvaluation.. Although there is net buying prior to SEO announcement, the outside investors still regard SEO announcement as a signal of overvaluation instead of growth potential.
