摘 要:Two stock exchanges in China imposed a new trading rule with price up-limit of 44% on the first trading day for IPOs after 2013. This event offers a quasi-natural experiment to test Miller (1977)’s theory of investor sentiment on asset pricing. We document that the trading rule significantly magnifies IPO underpricing and short-term price run-up. Initial trading shows a significant reduction with a pronounced divergence between big and small net buy. Post-IPO, the trading rule results in an upward shift of both turnover and volatility over next 6 months. The evidence suggests that the price up-limit restriction imposed by stock exchanges on IPOs exacerbates investment sentiment and widens divergence of opinion among investors.
