| Tiivistelmä: | This study tests whether the observed patterns in stock returns after quarterly earnings announcements are related to the level of multinationality, a variable used to proxy for earnings predictability. The sample is comprised of all the firms incl. in the 1990-1999 Forbes' 100 largest U.S. multinationals. The findings show that the level-of-multinationality variable is negatively correlated with the observed post-announcement abnormal returns. The findings suggest that the level of multinationality as proxy for earnings predictability underlies the predictability of stock returns after earnings announcements. |
