Import competition and stock price crash risk

open access: yesJournal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
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. Based on a sample of US manufacturing firms from 1974 to 2019, we find that firms whose products
