Title in English
Essays on stock price crash risk
Keywords in English
Crash risk
Financial analysts
Shareholder meetings
Abstract in English
Firm-specific stock crashes could be devastating for investors, with significant wealth implications. The economic significance of stock crashes has attracted increasing attention from academia to stock price crash risk' potential drivers. This dissertation comprises two related but different essays on potential stock price crash risk' drivers unexplored by literature, to my knowledge. In the first essay, I extend the existing literature by examining the relationship between evasive shareholder meetings and stock price crash risk, an unexplored question. I argue that evasive shareholder meetings could increase stock price crash risk through two potential mechanisms, namely Deterrence and Attention. To test my hypotheses, I construct a hand-collected dataset on annual shareholder meetings scheduling' characteristics. In the second essay, I extend the existing literature by examining the relationship between sell-side analysts' busyness and stock price crash risk. Mainly grounded on the busy directors' literature, I argue that the relationship between analysts' busyness and stock price crash risk reflects the net effect of two opposing perspectives: Busyness and Networking.

Abstract in Portuguese
Uma queda acentuada no preço de uma ação em particular (i.e., um crash individual) pode ser devastadora para os acionistas, com implicações patrimoniais significantes. A relevância econômica de crashes individuais tem atraído a atenção da academia para os potenciais fatores que podem vir a aumentar ou diminuir o risco de crash de uma determinada ação. Essa tese compreende dois ensaios relacionados, mas separados, sobre dois potenciais fatores ainda não explorados pela literatura, para o meu conhecimento. No primeiro ensaio, procuro expandir a literatura existente ao examinar a relação entre assembleias gerais de acionistas evasivas e o risco de crash individual por meio de dois potenciais mecanismos, nomeados Dissuasão e Atenção. Para testar as minhas hipóteses, construí uma base de dados manual com informações sobre localização e horário para assembleias gerais de acionistas de firmas norte-americanas. No segundo ensaio, eu procuro expandir a literatura existente ao avaliar a relação entre o grau de ocupação de analistas sell-side e o risco de crash de uma determinada ação. Alicerçando-se na literatura sobre conselheiros com participação em múltiplas diretorias, eu argumento que a relação entre o grau de ocupação de analistas e o risco de crash reflete o efeito líquido de duas perspectivas opostas: Busyness e Networking.
