Stock Liquidity, Mergers, and Valuation
主讲人 An Yan(美国福特汉姆大学 简介 In the paper, we study the relation between stock liquidity and firm value in relation to the mergers and acquisitions. We find that a firm&rsquo;s value on average is positively related to its stock liquidity. However, the positive relation becomes less pronounced when the firm has a higher likelihood of being a bidder. A firm&rsquo;s value could even be negatively related to stock liquidity when the firm has a sufficiently high likelihood of being a bidder. We also find that once a liquid firm does become a bidder, investors react negatively upon the takeover announcement. These results suggest that there could exist a dark side of stock liquidity on firm value in relation to the firm&rsquo;s takeover activities. Finally, we study the monitoring explanation and the overinvestment-based agency cost explanation on this dark side of stock liquidity.<br />
