Estimating Shareholder Risk Premia Using Analysts' Growth Forecasts
Robert S.Harris, Felicia C. Marston
This paper presents estimates of shareholder required rates of return and risk premia which are derived using forward-looking analysts' growth forecasts. We update through 1991 earlier work which,...
Stock Splits and Information: The Role of Share Price
Robert M. Conroy, Robert S. Harris
Managers appear to design stock splits to return the price of the company's shares to the price level achieved after the last split. Reducing the share price below the price achieved in the last...
