Abstract: | Previous studies have looked at the relation between stock price and two proxies for the degree of predisclosure information availability. This study uses the source of security behavior (dispersion) rather than stock price in order to analyze the relative ability of market value of equity and number of analysts to proxy for predisclosure information. The results are consistent with the expectation that greater NOA or greater MV correspond to lower analyst forecast dispersion. |
