Abstract:The authors investigate the short-run price adjustment around acquisition announcements and the long-run upward bias of cross-sectional average buy-and-hold returns. The geometric Brownian motion model is applied to decompose the cross-sectional average lon-run returns into transformed mean and volatility components. The most surprising finding is that the long-run abnormal return after three years is not significantly different from zero.
