| Abstract: | This study, utilizing logit and multiple regression models, tests the hypothesis that macroeconomic variables, in particular bond yields, exchange rates and stock prices, influenced the number and direction of cross-border acquisitions between firms in the United States and each of four European countries: Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and France. While the logit model results suggest that bond yields explain the trends in cross-border acquisitions, the regression results show the US stock prices to be a good explanatory variable. |
