Abstract

We examine the asynchronous price movements of the same assets traded on multiple markets, each of which has its unique characteristics. Differently from the existing literature, we use a dynamic structural Vector Autoregressive (VAR) setting to explore the effects of market-wide and idiosyncratic shocks on both home and host listings. We find strong evidence that foreign prices lead home prices, but not the reverse effect. Contrary to theory predictions, investors in the firms’ home market respond to idiosyncratic fluctuations in the stock returns in the host markets. Our results suggest that investors pay attention to fluctuations in the stocks listed on the more institutionally developed markets.
