Abstract: | There is a long history of research which examines the relation between unexpected earnings and unexpected returns on common stock. Early literature used simple linear regression models to describe this relation. Recently, a number of authors have proved nonlinear models. These authors find that the earnings-returns relation is approximately linear for small changes but is S-shaped globally. However, unexpected earnings are generated by the sum of a measurement error and a true earnings innovation. |
