| Abstract |
|
This study analyzes investors’ trading patterns, and investment and arbitrage opportunities by examining the trading data of preemptive right certificates, which are issued from seasoned right offerings. The major findings of this paper are as follows: First, investors can earn 9.70% returns over approximately a one month period (annualized return of 95.69%) by selling stocks short and purchasing certificates. This stock-certificate arbitrage suggests that certificates are undervalued in the market. Second, during the certificate trading period, institutional investors show a selling trading imbalance whereas personal investors show a buying trading imbalance, compared to past trading patterns. Third, existing investors earn the same returns either by selling certificates or by participating in right offerings. Overall, the listing of preemptive right certificate makes the market more efficient not only by protecting minor shareholders’ wealth but also by providing new investment and arbitrage opportunities. |
