    Författare :Stefan Anchev; Jörgen Hellström; Rickard Olsson; Juha-Pekka Kallunki; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Information; dissemination of information; production of private information; information disadvantage; investor base; stock return anomalies; stock price informativeness; quantity of firm disclosure; less sophisticated individual investors;

Overall, the thesis provides new empirical evidence about the role of information in financial markets. LÄS MER
