Does Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting Lead to Less Speculative Trading?

Abstract

I compare speculative bubble formation between a group of corporations in the S&P 500 that score high on corporate social responsibility versus the S&P 500 as a whole. I find that a portfolio of highly ranked CSR firms have a smaller sample likelihood of exhibit speculative bubbles.
