This study examines the impact of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on oil markets by analyzing the sentiment and intensity of Russia-related discussions in business media. Using topic modeling, we identify 12 distinct topics of articles published in The Wall Street Journal during the 2014–2024 period and compute their sentiment and hype scores. The sentiment and hype of these topics exhibit varying relations with oil returns under different market conditions. Notably, the Global Economy and Oil topics show the strongest positive association with oil returns in both sentiment and hype, particularly during bullish oil markets.
本研究通过分析商业媒体中与俄罗斯有关的讨论的情绪和强度,探讨俄乌冲突对石油市场的影响。通过主题建模,我们确定了 2014-2024 年期间《华尔街日报》上发表的 12 个不同的文章主题,并计算了它们的情绪和炒作得分。在不同的市场条件下,这些话题的情绪和炒作与石油收益率呈现出不同的关系。值得注意的是,"全球经济 "和 "石油 "这两个主题在情绪和炒作方面与石油收益率的正相关性最强,尤其是在石油市场看涨的时候。

This research focuses on examining the connection between digital transformation (DT) and enterprise innovation performance (EIP). It uncovers that DT plays a crucial role in enhancing EIP, with artificial intelligence (AI) serving as a significant intermediary in this process. When comparing enterprises based on their ownership, it is observed that DT has a more profound effect on the EIP of state-owned enterprises than on non-state-owned ones. The findings of this study offer valuable theoretical foundations and practical guidance for developing digital business strategies, advancing DT, and boosting EIP.
本研究侧重于探讨数字化转型(DT)与企业创新绩效(EIP)之间的联系。研究发现,数字化转型在提高企业创新绩效(EIP)方面发挥着至关重要的作用,而人工智能(AI)则是这一过程中的重要中介。在根据企业所有权对企业进行比较时,可以发现 DT 对国有企业 EIP 的影响比对非国有企业 EIP 的影响更为深远。本研究的结论为制定数字化商业战略、推进 DT 和促进 EIP 提供了宝贵的理论基础和实践指导。

Can AI beat a naive portfolio? An experiment with anonymized data

Using anonymized data from the United States (U.S.) market, we evaluate the performance of Google’s main LLM (Large Language Model) Gemini 1.5 Flash in making investment decisions. Unlike other studies, we query the LLM for different investment horizons (1 to 36 months) and types of financial information (financial data, price data, and a combination of both). Running a total of 30,000 simulations for 1,522 companies over 20 years of data, we find that Gemini does not consistently outperform a naive portfolio and the S&P 500 index in terms of returns and Sharpe ratios. Additionally, our findings indicate a decline in risk adjusted investment performance as the investment horizon extends.

Macro-banking stability, sovereign debt and the inflation channel

We investigate the impact of inflation on banking stability. Using granular U.S. data from 1997 to 2014, we show that higher inflation induces a significant deterioration of banks’ capital position because of the maturity mismatch of banks’ assets and liabilities. Quantitative analysis reveals that the elasticity of banking capital to long-term inflation expectations is high, as a 1% increase to long-term inflation expectations leads to a 15% decrease in banks’ Tier 1 capital. The analysis suggests that the use of inflation to reduce sovereigns’ real debt burden could aggravate the sovereign-bank loop during debt crises.

Population aging, unemployment rate and regional innovation

This study reports whether population ageing and unemployment rates have an impact on regional innovation outputs. Based on empirical analyses with relevant data for 2010 and 2020, the study finds that an increase in population ageing leads to an increase in regional innovation output, which is partly mediated by the unemployment rate, population ageing contributes indirectly to an increase in regional innovation output by reducing the unemployment rate. The study also shows the heterogeneity of this effect across regions.

Environmental taxes, political connections, and firm financialization: Evidence from China's environmental tax reform

This study identifies the impact of environmental taxes on firm financialization. Using a triple-differences (DDD) strategy, we find that the enactment of the Environmental Protection Tax Law significantly inhibits firm financialization, which is primarily driven by firms with political connections. The decline in firm financialization can be attributed to increased investments in R&D and environmental protection, especially for politically connected firms. Further analyses suggest that environmental enforcement and legal environments amplify the inhibitory effect. We argue that the fee-to-tax reform leads environmental protection to the rule of law and reduces potential government-business collusion, which is conducive to long-term environmental governance.

A new quality factor adjusted by fraud probability 按欺诈概率调整的新质量系数

Owing to potential financial fraud by companies, we propose a new quality factor that is mitigated by the probability of financial fraud. We estimate fraud probability using a bivariate probit model that allows for unobservable companies that actually committed fraud but were not detected. Our empirical results show that the fraud-mitigated quality-minus-junk (fmQMJ) portfolio earns significant average excess returns in both China and the United States. Furthermore, it outperforms the original quality factor within the quintile groups of low size and low book-to-market ratio. A series of Fama–MacBeth regressions show that fmQMJ contributes a new pricing factor to the value-investing strategy widely advocated in practice and academia.

Kick down the ladder? The impact of cryptocurrency bans on company legal risks and employee structure

This paper investigates the impact of cryptocurrency bans on company legal risks using a Difference-in-Differences framework. We find that such bans significantly reduce both the frequency and monetary value of lawsuits, lowering companies' legal exposure. Additionally, our analysis reveals that employees with financial backgrounds play a crucial role in helping companies mitigate legal risks in response to the ban's impact. However, as cryptocurrency-related financial activities are gradually phased out, the importance of these financially-skilled employees diminishes. Consequently, companies tend to "kick down the ladder" by dismissing these employees, highlighting an unintended consequence of the regulatory shift.

Labor productivity, internal pay disparity, and organizational resilience

Organizational resilience is essential for firms navigating volatile business environments. This study examines the impact of labor productivity on resilience, emphasizing the moderating role of internal pay disparity. Using a panel dataset of Chinese listed firms (2010–2022), the results show that labor productivity enhances resilience, but excessive pay disparity weakens this effect by undermining employee morale. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that firm ownership, life cycle stage, and industry classification influence this relationship. These findings emphasize the need for balanced human capital management strategies to enhance resilience, providing valuable insights for managers and policymakers to optimize workforce efficiency and pay structures.
组织复原力对于在动荡的商业环境中生存的企业来说至关重要。本研究探讨了劳动生产率对复原力的影响,强调了内部薪酬差距的调节作用。通过使用中国上市公司的面板数据集(2010-2022 年),研究结果表明,劳动生产率会增强企业的抗风险能力,但过大的薪酬差距会削弱员工士气,从而削弱这种影响。异质性分析表明,企业所有权、生命周期阶段和行业分类会影响这种关系。这些发现强调了平衡人力资本管理战略以增强复原力的必要性,为管理者和政策制定者优化劳动力效率和薪酬结构提供了有价值的见解。

Regulatory inquiry letters and green M&As of heavily polluting firms

Inquiry letters serve as a nonadministrative regulatory measure employed by Chinese stock exchanges to oversee listed firms. This study examines the impact of inquiry letters related to green and environmental protection issues on the green transformation of heavily polluting firms, focusing on mergers and acquisitions (M&As). The findings indicate that inquiry letters addressing green concerns encourage heavily polluting firms to pursue green M&As, primarily driven by the spotlight effect and the governance effect. Further analysis reveals that stronger government environmental regulations and increased public environmental awareness amplify this positive relationship. Moreover, green M&As prompted by regulatory inquiries represent a strategic shift toward green transformation. This study offers new insights into the economic consequences of inquiry letters.
