This study examines the nominal price anomaly in the Vietnamese stock market, that is, whether stocks with low nominal price outperform stocks with high nominal price. Using a sample of all 351 companies listed on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) from June 2009 to March 2018, we confirm our hypothesis and document that cheaper stocks yield higher subsequent abnormal returns. The results are robust after controlling for various stock characteristics that have been documented to be value-relevant in prior literature, including firm size, book-to-market ratio, intermediate-term momentum, short-term reversal, skewness, market risk, idiosyncratic risk, illiquidity and extreme daily returns, using both the portfolio analysis and the Fama-MacBeth cross-sectional regression. The negative effect persists in the long term (i.e., after up to 12 months), implying a slow adjustment of stock prices to their intrinsic value. Further analysis show that the observed nominal price anomaly is mainly driven by mispricing but not a latent risk factor proxied by stock price, thus the observed anomaly reflects a mispricing but not a fundamental risk. The study highlights the irrational behaviour of investors and market inefficiency in the Vietnamese stock market and provides important implication for investors in the market.

R&D 연구 투자의 문제점의 하나는 불확실성이 크다는 점이다. 이러한 불확실성이 기업에는 많은 부담을 주는 요인이 될 수 있다. 이러한 면에서 R&D 투자가 기업 가치에 양(+)의 영향을 미치기까지의 시간을 측정할 수 있는 연구의 필요성이 있다고 보여진다. 본 연구는 GMM-PVAR(Panel Vector Autoregression) IRF(Impulse Response function)를 사용하여 1900년부터 2015년까지 한국거래소의 코스피와 코스닥시장에 상장된 기업을 대상으로 R&D 투자가 기업가치에 양(+)의 영향을 미치기까지 걸리는 시간을 측정 하였다. 또한 기업의 재무적 특성 변수 중 기업의 크기, 성장 가능성, 그리고 산업 집중율이 R&D 투자가 기업가치에 양(+) 영향을 미치기까지 걸리는 시간을 단축시킨다는 점을 발견하였다. 그것은 이들 재무적 특성변수 들이 R&D 투자와 기업가치간의 관계에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠수록 즉 경쟁이 심화될수록 크기가 클수록 시간이 단축되며 작은 기업의 경우는 성장 가능성이 높을수록 시간이 단축되는 경향을 보였다. 흥미 있는 점은 큰 기업들의 경우에는 성장가능성이 낮은 기업들이 성장가능성이 높은 기업들보다 더 큰 양의 결과를 보였다.

전환사채는 주식과 채권의 성격을 모두 가지고 있기 때문에 주주와 채권자 모두의 이해관계와 관련되어 있을 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 기존연구는 전환사채 발행과 주주의 부와의 연관성에만 주로 초점을 맞추어 왔다. 따라서 본 연구는 전환사채 발행의 공시효과가 주주는 물론 나아가서 채권자의 부에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴본다. 또한 이들 부의 변화를 발행기업의 특성-특히 기업의 성장성-과 연관하여 살펴봄으로써, 전환사채 발행유인과 관련된 기존가설을 재검증하고자 한다. 먼저 실증분석 결과를 보면, 전환사채 발행공시일 전후의 주가반응은 대부분의 국내 논문의 결과들처럼 유의하지 않았지만, 채권가격은 코스닥기업의 경우에 유의적으로 상승하였다. 이는 주주의 부는 전반적으로 변하지 않는 반면에 채권자의 부는 코스닥기업의 경우에 증가한다는 것을 의미하여, 전환사채는 주식보다 정도는 덜 하지만 기업가치가 과대평가되었을 때 발행되기 때문에 발행기업의 주가가 하락한다는 외국의 연구결과들을 역시 지지하지 않는다. 다음으로, 주주와 채권자의 부의 변화에 영향을 미치는 기업특성변수들에 대한 회귀분석결과, 장부가/시장가비율이 낮아 성장성이 높을수록 주주와 채권자의 부가 모두 증가하였다. 또한 신용등급은 채권자의 부와 양(+)의, 기업규모는 채권자의 부와 음(-)의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 성장성이 높은 기업이 전환사채를 발행하는 경우에 주주와 채권자의 부는 비례적으로 증가하였다. 이들 결과는 전환사채의 발행유인으로 성장성이 높은 기업이 부채의 대리인비용을 줄이기 위함이라고 하는 기존의 국내외 연구결과를 지지하는 것으로 보인다.

Modern investment theory has empirically proved that stock returns can be explained by several factors such as market risk, firm size, and book-to-market ratio. Other unknown factors affecting stock returns are also believed to still exist yet to be found. We believe that one of such factors is the operational efficiency of firms in transforming inputs to outputs, considering the fact that operations is a fundamental and primary function of any type of businesses. To support this belief, this study intends to empirically study the relationship between firm efficiency and stock price performance. Firm efficiency is measured using data envelopment analysis (DEA) with inputs and outputs obtained from financial statements. We employ cross-efficiency evaluation to enhance the discrimination power of DEA with a secondary objective function of aggressive formulation. Using the CAPM-based performance regression model, we test the performance of equally weighted portfolios of different sizes selected based upon DEA cross-efficiency scores along with a buy & hold trading strategy. For the empirical test, we collect financial data of domestic firms listed in KOSPI over the period of 2000~2016 from well-known financial databases. As a result, we find that the porfolios with highly efficient firms included outperform the benchmark market portfolio after controlling for the market risk, which indicates that firm efficiency plays a important role in explaining stock returns.

Purpose - This paper explores whether overnight returns measured from the last closing price to today's opening price explain the cross-section of stock returns. Design/methodology/approach - This study is conducted using the Korean stock market data from 1998 to 2018, obtained from DataGuide database. The analysis begins with portfolio-level tests, followed by firm-level cross-sectional regressions. Findings - First, when decile portfolios sorted on the daily average of overnight returns in the previous months, the highest decile portfolio exhibits a significant negative risk-adjusted return. This suggests that stocks with higher average overnight returns are temporarily overvalued due to buying pressure from investors. Second, at least 6 months of persistence exists in average overnight returns, which is in line with the results reported by Barber, Odean and Zhu (2009) that investor sentiment persists over several weeks. Finally, Fama-MacBeth cross-sectional regression of expected returns after controlling for a variety of firm characteristic variables such as firm size, book-to-market ratio, market beta, momentum, liquidity, short-term reversal, the slope coefficient for overnight returns remains negative and statistically significant. Research implications or Originality - Overall, the evidence consistently suggests that overnight return is considered as a new priced factor in the cross-section of expected returns. The findings of this paper not only adds to finance literature, but also could be useful to practitioners in making stock investment decision.

This paper examines the impact of foreign ownership on stock price volatility in an emerging market, namely, Thailand. The data were obtained from SETSMART, the database of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET). After removing financial firms, banks, and insurance companies as well as filtering outliers, the final sample covers 1,755 firm-year observations from 371 nonfinancial firms listed on the SET over the five-year period from 2014 to 2018. The regression model consists of stock price volatility, measured by two methods, as the dependent variable, foreign ownership as the main independent variable, and firm characteristics including firm size, leverage, market-to book ratio, and stock turnover as the control variables. The pooled OLS, fixed effects, and random effects estimations are employed to examine the relationship between foreign ownership and stock price volatility. The results reveal that foreign ownership has a negative and significant impact on stock price volatility. The two-stage least squares (2SLS) are also performed to address potential endogeneity problem. The results still indicate a negative relationship between foreign ownership and stock price volatility. Taken together, the findings of this study suggest that foreign investors help reduce stock price volatility and thus stabilize share price in the Thai stock market.

본 연구의 배경은 아시아 외환위기 발생시점 기준, 사전 및 사후 기간 상호 간의 국내 대기업들의 부채비율 변화에 대한 차이점을 발견하기 위해 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적은 정부로부터 타인자본 조달 시 상대적으로 우선순위를 유지하였다고 주장되는 재벌기업 중심의 대기업들이, 금융위기 이후에도 연구표본자료에 포함된 대응기업들과 비교에서 지속적으로 높은 부채비율을 유지하는가에 대한 가설을 검증하는 것이다. 재벌에 속하는 기업들은 평균적으로 높은 장부가 대비 그리고 시장가 대비 부채비율을 상대기업들과 비교하여, 표본기간동안 유지하였음이 판명되었고, '시간' 대용 더미변수인 2002년과 2003년의 변수들은 (장부가 기준의) 부채비율과 역(-)의 상관관계를 보였다. 새로운 회계처리기준(K-IFRS)를 고려하여, 현재까지 대차대조표의 부외항목으로만 산정되는 영업리스 금액을 자산과 부채에 새로이 포함하여 산정한 부채비울 기준으로 분석한 결과, 모델에 포함된 설명변수들 기준, 차이가 없음을 통계적으로 발견하였다. 정부는 그 동안 지속적으로 기업회계의 투명성과 기업소유구조를 중심으로 한 기업지배구조의 개선에 관한 정책을 수행하여 왔으며, '새로운' 부채비율에 대한 정의는 기업의 부채를 측정하는 점에 더욱 효율적 일 수 있다고 판단한다. 또한, 현재 진행 중인 한국-미국 간 그리고 한국-중국 간 등의 자유무역협정(FTA)이 시행될 경우, 다국적 기업들의 국내 현지법인 설립 시, 본 논문의 결과는 동 법인들이 적정 부채비울을 구성하는 점에 응용될 수 있음을 시사한다고 판단한다.

The purpose of this study is to assess how accounting conservatism is practiced in the Jordanian pharmaceuticals and medical industry. It assesses the association between accounting conservatism and intellectual capital (IC) in this industry. This study measures IC performance using the market price per share less book value. Accounting conservatism is measured using the book-to-price ratio, and the data was collected from company annual reports and the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) website. The data was collected for the period of six years (2014 to 2019). The sample was made up of four companies in the industry listed in the ASE. The data was analyzed using the SPSS program though the ordinary least squares regression model to assess how accounting conservatism is associated with IC. The findings indicate a negative association with companies having higher IC performance and reporting lower accounting conservatism. IC is applied more in these companies, although it might be lower than in other companies in other sectors. This study provides empirical evidence on how IC is applied in the industry and how it might be negatively associated with accounting conservatism. Findings indicate the need for more effective policies to promote recognition of intangible assets in the sector.

This study suggests a DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) based model to evaluate the value of corporate stock. The model integrating PER(Price-Earning Ratio), PBR(Price-BookValue Ratio), PSR(Price-Sales Ratio) and volatility in DEA structure has an advantage of overcome the limitation of traditional financial ratio based models. In order to show the effectiveness of the suggested model. we compare the performance of portfolio composed by DEA approach with those of portfolios made by traditional approaches such as PER, PBR, and PSR in terms of stock return and volatility. Specifically, we use the data of all the enterprises listed on the S&P 500 in the U.S. in 2007 and 2009 as the sample data for the experiments. The results of the experiments show that the performance of the DEA approach is clearly better than those of other approaches. Particularly, in sharply plummeting market, the performance of the DEA approach is shown to be prominently better than those of other approaches as the DEA approach reflects investment risk as well as profitability and growth. The DEA score combining the existing investment indices may serve as a useful barometer for selecting a stable and profitable portfolio.

This study aims to investigate the effect of the composition of the board and ownership structure on a firm's value in Jordanian firms. Specifically, it aims to determine the effect of board size, (CEO) duality, and family, foreign, institutional, and government ownership on a firm's value. An ordinary least square regression (OLS) was employed to examine the study hypotheses in a sample of 35 Jordanian industrial firms (175 firm-year observation) for a period of five years from 2016-2020. As measured by Tobin's Q (Q ratio) and market-to-book (MB ratio) for Jordanian industrial firms listed on Amman Stock Exchange (ASE). The result found that foreign ownership, institutional ownership, and family ownership have a significant and positive effect on firm value. By contrast, government ownership does not have a significant effect on firm value. With respect to board composition (CEO duality and board size), the study results found no evidence to support the effect of board composition on firm value. The study recommended the concerned authorities with several recommendations, most notably: taking the necessary measures to ensure the continuity and growth of family businesses because of their positive impact on the value of the company and economic growth, spreading awareness about how governance protects the interests of investors.
