Import competition and stock price crash risk
Abstract We investigate how globalization‐induced import competition affects stock price crash risk. Import competition increases price pressure and reduces profit margins, prompting managers to withhold negative information, resulting in higher crash risk.

ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

In a one‐shot game, comparing welfare under the Nash equilibria, it is shown that tradeable permits are superior to emissions taxes.
