Data Estimation

Based on Easton & Harris model (1991), this study aims to investigate the relationship between accounting information reported in financial statements and stock returns. We collected the sample of 108 listed firms on the Ho Chi Minh stock market - the most developmental economic zone in Vietnam during the period of 4 years, from 2010 to 2013. In order to examine the relationship, this paper principally used quantity approach and data estimation techniques of Pooled Regression Model, Fixed Effects Model (FEM) and Random Effects Model (REM). We then utilized the Hausman Test to choose an appropriate model between FEM and REM. The results indicate that there is an association between accounting information and stock returns in Vietnam, but this association is considerably weak. It implies that the accounting information is less useful to make investment decisions in the Vietnamese stock market.

The Relationship

Context Infant colic is a common and distressing disorder of early infancy. Its etiology is unknown, making treatment challenging. Several articles have suggested a link to migraine. Objective The objective of this article was to perform a systematic review and, if appropriate, a meta-analysis of the studies on the relationship between infant colic and migraine. Data sources Studies were identified by searching PubMed and ScienceDirect and by hand-searching references and conference proceedings. Study selection For the primary analysis, studies specifically designed to measure the association between colic and migraine were included. For the secondary analysis, studies that collected data on colic and migraine but were designed for another primary research question were also included. Data extraction Data were abstracted from the original studies, through communication with study authors, or both. Two authors independently abstracted data. Main outcomes and measures The main outcome measure was the association between infant colic and migraine using both a fixed-effects model and a more conservative random-effects model. Results Three studies were included in the primary analysis; the odds ratio for the association between migraine and infant colic was 6.5 (4.6–8.9, p < 0.001) for the fixed-effects model and 5.6 (3.3–9.5, p = 0.004) for the random-effects model. In a sensitivity analysis wherein the study with the largest effect size was removed, the odds ratio was 3.6 (95% CI 1.7–7.6, p = 0.001) for both the fixed-effects model and random-effects model. Conclusions In this meta-analysis, infant colic was associated with increased odds of migraine. If infant colic is a migrainous disorder, this would have important implications for treatment. The main limitation of this meta-analysis was the relatively small number of studies included.

The Relationship

Using the data of 68 Malaysian listed firms, this study attempts to examine the relationship between accounting standards and the value relevance of financial statements. It also explores the difference in accounting treatment between accruals accounting and cash accounting, and evidence of supplies. This process confirmed that accruals accounting provided a more transparent picture of accounting information when compared with cash accounting aspect. Our findings are quite consistent with our hypothesis which clearly states that in economies wherein strong and secure protection mechanisms for shareholders exist, tend to apply the use of accruals accounting with confidence, assuming that the value relevance of accounting information would not be compromised at any stage.

The Relationship

This paper aims to investigate the relationship between current ratio, earnings to price, net profit margin and stock returns in İstanbul Stock Exchange over the period 2008-2016 by employing panel data analysis. Due to the existence of heteroskedasticity, cross sectional dependence and autocorrelation in sample data, two-way fixed effects model is estimated by robust estimators. Both Parks-Kmenta and Beck-Katz methods are conducted to check whether the results are consistent or not. According to Park-Kmenta estimation model, the results show that earnings to price and net profit margin are significant to explain stock returns in İstanbul Stock Exchange while current ratio is found insignificant.  Moreover, the test based on Beck-Katz model produces the similar results. Earnings to price and net profit margin are strong determinants of stock returns in Istanbul Stock Exchange. Stocks with higher E/P ratios and profit margins generate higher returns for the next period.

Purpose Merton’s model of capital market equilibrium under incomplete information predicts that contemporaneous stock returns are positively related to investor recognition and that future stock returns are negatively related to investor recognition. The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate whether Merton’s theory holds true for the Chinese stock market. Design/methodology/approach This paper proposes the degree of shareholder base growth (SBG) as a proxy for investor recognition and examines the relationship between investor recognition and stock returns through a univariate analysis and Fama-Macbeth cross-sectional regressions based on A-Share listed firms. Findings The results show that investor recognition is nonlinearly and positively related to contemporaneous stock returns and is negatively related to future stock returns in contrast to the conclusions of Merton’s theory. A long-short trading strategy that involves buying stocks with the lowest SBG rate and that sells stocks with the highest SBG rate will earn an average monthly return of 3.615 percent. Research limitations/implications Though Merton’s theory is not fully reflected in the Chinese stock market, investor recognition is considered an important risk factor in the Chinese stock market. Originality/value No works have yet investigated the validity of Merton’s “investor cognition hypothesis” in relation to the Chinese stock market. This paper strives to fill this gap.

The objective of the study is to examine the impact of audit committee (AC) characteristics on corporate biodiversity disclosure by using the data of Japanese listed firms. For this purpose, the empirical data has been collected from corporate reports. The study develops hypotheses about the relationship between corporate biodiversity disclosure and AC characteristics such as size, independence, gender diversity, independent chair, frequency of meetings, and financial expertise.  We use panel regression (fixed effects model) to test the proposed hypotheses. The empirical results depict that the AC size, gender diversity, AC meetings, and financial expertise significantly impact corporate biodiversity disclosure. However, the AC independence and independence of the chair are not significant. The findings of this study may help regulators, policymakers, investors, shareholders, and managers in assessing and monitoring the corporate biodiversity disclosure in light of AC characteristics.

The Relationship

The 2008 international financial crisis triggered a heated discussion of the relationship between public health and the economic environment. We test the relationship between the credit cycle and happiness using the fixed effects model and explore the transmission channels between them by adding the moderating effect. The results show the following empirical regularities. First, the credit cycle has a negative correlation with happiness. This means that credit growth will reduce the overall happiness score in a country/region. Second, the transmission channels between the credit cycle and happiness are different during credit expansion and recession. Life expectancy and generosity can moderate the relationship between the credit cycle and happiness only during credit expansion. GDP per capita can moderate this relationship only during credit recession. Social support, freedom, and positive affect can moderate this relationship throughout the credit cycle. Third, the total impact of the credit cycle on happiness will become positive by the changes in the moderating effects. In general, we can improve subjective well-being if one of the following five conditions holds: (1) with the adequate support from the family and society, (2) with enough freedom, (3) with social generosity, (4) with a positive and optimistic outlook, and (5) with a high level of GDP per capita.

The Relationship

This study examines the connection between governance, financial performance, and financial difficulties of 27 conventional private banks during the pe3riod of 2015-2018. In order to meet the accuracy of the model in the regression analysis, the Lagrange Multiplier test was previously performed so that the Fixed Effects model was chosen. The relationship of insider ownership with ROA tends to be in the shape of inversed-U and the relationship between institutional ownership and ROA is significantly positive. The relationship between ROA and financial difficulties is significantly negative. Older or established large scale banks tend to have high ROA. This happens because the greater the assets, the healthier the cash flow of the bank, so that the potential for return of asset is quite high and financial difficulties tend to be low or avoidable.
