我们研究了投资者视野对公司行为的影响。我们认为,较长的投资者视野削弱了公司政策的股票错误定价的影响。与我们的论点一致,我们发现,当一家公司被低估时,更大的长期投资者所有权与更多的投资,更多的股权融资和更少的股东分红有关。我们的研究结果似乎不能用长期投资者的自我选择、监督(公司治理)或集中(大宗持有)来解释。我们的研究结果与市场时机的一个版本是一致的,在这个版本中,错误定价的公司迎合了他们的短期投资者的口味,而不是他们的长期投资者。
We study the effect of investor horizons on corporate behavior. We argue that longer investor horizons attenuate the effect of stock mispricing on corporate policies. Consistent with our argument, we find that when a firm is undervalued, greater long-term investor ownership is associated with more investment, more equity financing, and less payouts to shareholders. Our results do not appear to be explained by long-term investor self-selection, monitoring (corporate governance), or concentration (blockholdings). Our results are consistent with a version of market timing in which mispriced firms cater to the tastes of their short-term investors rather than their long-term investors.
