Social responsibility information disclosed by listed companies is an important way to transfer non-financial information to the stock market, which affects the level of stock price synchronicity. In order to explore whether Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) information is valuable in improving capital market pricing efficiency, this paper conducted empirical research based on a sample of China Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies in years 2010–2015. The results showed that: (1) Overall, there is a significant positive correlation between CSR information and stock price synchronicity; (2) under different disclosure motives, there is no significant difference in the impact of CSR on stock price synchronicity; (3) Securities analysts and institutional investors can negatively regulate the positive relationship between CSR and stock price synchronicity, while the media will intensify the positive effect of CSR on stock price synchronicity. This research is of great significance in promoting the fulfillment of CSR and improving capital market pricing efficiency.

The Impact

The stock price crash risk has become the focus of corporate finance and macroeconomics research in recent years because it affects the stock market, listed companies, market investors and the real economy. This paper takes 1822 gem listed companies from 2011 to 2017 as samples, and empirically tests the impact of social responsibility on the risk of stock price collapse and takes into account the regulatory effect of institutional environment. The study finds that social responsibility can inhibit the stock price collapse risk of listed companies on the growth enterprise market, and the institutional environment can also inhibit the risk of stock price collapse of listed companies on the growth enterprise market. Considering the influence of the institutional environment, the influence of social responsibility on the risk of stock price collapse of listed companies on the growth enterprise market is more obvious, which shows that the institutional environment has a moderating effect between social responsibility and the risk of stock price collapse. This conclusion still exists after considering the endogenous influence. Further research shows that the inhibiting effect of social responsibility and the regulating effect of institutional environment are more obvious among gem listed companies in the first year of listing.

The Usa

The spread of the Covid-19 pandemic has an unprecedented and immense impact on the world economy as well as the Indian economy. The stock market, treated as a barometer of the economic activity of any country is adversely affected. Not even in India, countries like Germany, France, the USA, and Spain have been strongly affected. Nationwide lockdown, restriction on the transportation system, demand-supply disequilibrium lead to slow down in the economy and create a fear factor among the participants of the capital market. Rapid fall in the share price and increased volatility are identified during this period.  The present study tries to compare the stock price return volatility, no of the transaction, and delivery percentage of various listed companies listed on BSE during the pre and post COVID 19 periods to examine the effect of this pandemic on the economy as a whole. Period of Study: In this paper, we have consideredthe pre-covid period from 1st September 2019 to 15th March 2020 and post covid period from 16th March 2020 to August 2020. Sample: for this study, we have selected 50 BSE listed Companies covering 5 sectors, viz. Pharma, Automobile, Industrial Products, Banking and Finance, and Consumer Goods. Statistical Method: We have used paired sample t-test for comparing the arithmetical mean of different capital market parameters for these two sub-periods for each sector separately and standard deviation of daily return as a measure of volatility. Conclusion: From the study, we have observed that average daily share price; average daily return; daily no. of transactions and volatility is significantly different from pre and post covid period for most of the sectors. However, we have not perceived any significant difference in the delivery percentage of traded shares of these sectors between two study periods.

The Relationship

We take Chinese A-share listed companies in years 2010–2015 as a sample to examine the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) information disclosure and stock price crash risk using the fixed effect model. The results show that: (1) There is an inverted U-shaped nonlinear relationship between CSR information disclosure and stock price crash risk. That is, as the CSR information disclosure level increases, the CSR information disclosure first aggravates and then reduces the stock price crash risk; (2) under different disclosure motives, there is a significant difference in the impact of CSR information disclosure on stock price crash risk. There is still an inverted U-shaped relationship between mandatory CSR information disclosure and stock price crash risk, but not for the semi-mandatory and voluntary disclosure; (3) the academic independent director has a positive adjustment effect on the relationship between CSR information disclosure and stock price crash risk, while the institutional investor has a negative adjustment effect on the relationship between CSR information disclosure and stock price crash risk. The research is of great significance for promoting the fulfillment of CSR, improving corporate governance and stabilizing the capital market.

The Impact

This paper evaluates the impact of trading locations on equity returns by examining the stock price behaviour of three Anglo-Dutch dual-listed companies which result from mergers where two corporations agree to function as a single operating business, but maintain separate identities. The shares of these stocks are traded not only in their home market but also on several US stock exchanges in the form of American Depository Receipts. Regressing the return differentials on these dual-listed and cross-listed stocks on the relative market index returns and currency changes provides evidence of an apparent violation of the Law of One Price. The regression results show that the return on each part of dual-listed companies is highly correlated with the market on which it is most intensively traded. Similarly, returns on cross-listed stocks have considerably higher co-movement with US market indices and considerably lower co-movement with home-market indices than their home-market counterparts. Market risk premium is not a significant explanatory variable of the location of trade effect.
