  • INVESTOR SENTIMENT,EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION, AND CORPORATE INVESTMENTDr Hui (Michael) LiDepartment of Economics and FinanceLa Trobe University

  • AgendaContribution of the paperLiterature reviewThe modelThe empirical testConclusion

  • Contribution of the paperTheoretical contributionThe paper develops a model that incorporates ownership structure, investor sentiment, and executive compensation into the investigation for corporate investment decisions.

  • Empirical contributionThe paper shows that when managerial compensation only includes options and vested shares, for the sample of CEOs, the investment level is significantly associated with the weight on options, and generally increases with the proxies for investor sentiment. For the sample of all top executives, the investment level generally increases with the proxies for investor sentiment, but is not significantly associated with the options and shares. when managerial compensation includes options, restricted shares and vested shares, for both the sample of CEOs and top executives, the investment level generally increases with the proxies for investor sentiment, but is not significantly associated with the executive compensation.

    Stein (1996)If the manager is interested in maximizing current tock price, she must cater to the investors sentiment.

    If the manager is interested in maximizing long run tock price, she will use a hurdle rate that reflects the

    fundamental risk. Share issues and repurchases also affect the hurdle rate.

    SV(2003)Firm with overvalued equity might be able to acquire firms with undervalued or less overvalued equity

    PS (2004)When the firm is overpriced (underpriced), the manager overinvests (underinvests). The incentive to

    overinvest (underinvest) increases with the duration of the mispricing and decreases with the horizon

    of the average shareholder.

    GHH(2004)An increase in dispersion in shareholder's beliefs increases the size of the bubble, new share issue

    and the investment level.

    BSX(2005)The speculative component of stock price can create distortion in CEO compensation leading to

    overinvest in short-term speculative projects at the expense of long-term fundamental value.

    Narayan (1985)The manager may have incentives to make decisions that will increase the short-term share price at the expense of long-term value.

    The long-term contract cannot totally eliminate this short-term incentives.

    BS (1993)Short-term objective of the manager plus the information asymmetry may lead not only to underinvestment but also to overinvestment

    in long-run projects. When the market cannot observe the investment level, underinvestment occurs. When the market cannot observe

    the productivity of the investment, overinvestment occurs.

    Narayan (1996)If the managerial ability and the investment level are unknown to shareholders, then cash-only contract results in underinvestment in

    long-term projects. Stock-based contract results in overinvestment in long-term projects.

    AS (1999)If there are private benefits, an increase in incentives is associated with an increase in investment. If there are private costs, an increase

    in incentives is associated with a decrease in investment.

    Salary plus long-term options plus vested shares

  • The empirical testThe hypothesesHypothesis 1: If a managers compensation contract only includes options and the managers have vested shares, then the investment level can be increasing or decreasing with the weight on options (shares), and the investment level should increase with investor sentiment. Hypothesis 2: If a managers compensation contract includes options and restricted shares and if the manager has vested shares, then the investment level can be increasing or decreasing with the weight on options (shares), and the investment level should increase with investor sentiment.
