Korea Exchange (KRX) has adopted several measures to ease temporary overheating of short-selling stocks in the market since March 27, 2017. These measures aim to curb excessive volatility and unfair trade, promoting efficient price discovery. This study examines the effect of overheated short-selling halts using the sample data from these KRX measures during the period of September 2017 to October 2019. The major empirical results are: first, the drop in prices of overheated short-selling stocks on a downward trend slows significantly after KRX announcement. Moreover, the stock price rise on the triggering day shows no additional increase in the period after the trigger. Second, for the stocks so triggered, the volatility in the period after the halt announcement shows no significant difference from the pre-halt period. This can be attributed to the resolution of the information asymmetry by calling investors’ attention to overheated short-selling. Third, the ratio of short-selling to trading after halt suggests no statistically significant difference from the period before the trigger. These results imply that the measures to ease overheated short sale of stocks in KRX are effective in controlling excessive temporary volatility and unfair trading.

We use a regulatory shock to examine whether the prospect of short selling affected tax disclosures. From May 2005 to August 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission initiated a pilot program under Regulation SHO, temporarily exempting one-third of the Russell 3000 index firms from short sale price tests, reducing short selling costs. Before the pilot program, we find that pilot firms' income tax footnote disclosures are similar to non-pilot firms. During the pilot program, we find that pilot firms have more readable income tax footnotes than non-pilot firms. The words describing tax activities also changed for tax aggressive pilot firms. In further tests, we observe greater readability among pilot firms led by senior executives whose personal wealth is more sensitive to stock price changes. After the pilot program ends, the differences between pilot and non-pilot firms disappear. These results suggest that the prospect of short selling affects tax disclosures.

The coronavirus pandemic has spread all over the world, affecting both the health and economic sectors. The aim of this research was to observe stock prices of customer goods before and after the COVID-19 pandemic using event study and the comparison test. The sample included data of daily closing stock prices and volume of stock trade during the three months before (−90 days) and after (+90 days) the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic ongoing, totaling 2670 observation data both before and after the COVID-19 pandemic, for a total of 5340. The research findings indicate a significant difference between the daily closing stock price and volume of stock trade before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The current research has both theoretical and practical implications: the findings strengthen the efficient market hypothesis, which states that the more complete the provided information, the more efficient the market. The practical implication is that investors should be careful when choosing to invest. Investors should choose customer goods sector companies that provide products that are much needed by customers, for example, pharmacy, food, beverages, etc. Future research is needed to investigate the long-term impact of the pandemic on the economy.

The first Covid-19 case in Indonesia was announced on March 2, 2020. This study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in stock prices, stock transaction volume and stock returns due to the COVID-19 pandemic (case study at PT. Agung Podomoro Land, Tbk). This research data was taken 90 days before and 90 days after the announcement of the first case of COVID-19 in Indonesia. The data was processed by paired sample t-test, using SPSS version 20. From the results of data processing, it was shown that there was a significant difference in stock prices before and after the announcement of the first case of covid-19 in Indonesia. This is indicated by a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05 where the stock price has decreased compared to before the Covid-19 case. Meanwhile, the volume of stock transactions also showed a significant difference with a significance value of 0.007 <0.05, where the volume of stock transactions after the announcement showed a decrease. Likewise, stock returns show a significant difference with a significance value of 0.025 < 0.05 where stock returns have decreased after the announcement of the first case of covid-10 in Indonesia.

Property Markets

Asset pricing models have been used extensively in the recent real estate literature to evaluate real estate performance and estimate required rates of return of properties. In this paper, we show that the CAPM and its variants will derive a biased result when short sales are not allowed in the market. This problem is particularly serious for Asian property markets where investors are not able to short sell real estate indexes as a substitute for short selling real properties. We also demonstrate that the bias resulting from the short-sale constraint is related to the supply-and-demand conditions in the local market.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) has been correlated to body mass index (BMI) increase. The present study was done in a Brazilian population to compare BMI values in the following groups: first, CTS vs. controls subjects, and, second CTS groups of increasing median sensory latency (MSL). According to MSL > or = 3.7 ms (wrist-index finger, 14 cm), median/ulnar sensory latency difference > or = 0.5 ms (ring finger, 14 cm) or median palm-to-wrist (8 cm) latency > or = 2.3 ms (all peak-measured), 141 cases (238 hands) had CTS confirmation. All were symptomatic; previous surgery and polyneuropathy were excluded; mean age 50.3; 90.8% female. Controls subjects (n=243; mean age 43.0; 96.7% female) and CTS cases had BMI calculated (kg/m²). Controls subjects had a mean BMI of 25.43±4.80 versus 28.38±4.69 of all CTS cases, a statistically significant difference (p < 0.001). The CTS groups of increasing MSL severity do not show additional increase in BMI (28.44 for incipient, 28.27 for mild, 28.75 for moderate and 29.0 for severe). We conclude that CTS cases have a significant correlation with higher BMI when compared to controls subjects; however, higher BMI do not represent a statistically significant increasing risk for more severe MSL.
