1. Abnormal returns, risk, and financial statement data: the case of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait

Author

Subjects
Iraq-Kuwait Crisis, 1990-1991 -- Economic aspects, Transportation industry -- Economic aspects, Risk assessment -- Economic aspects, International offenses -- Economic aspects, Business, Economics
Abstract

The US transportation industry was greatly affected by the six-day Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990 in terms of financial experience. The industry experienced a -2.09% abnormal return and a cross-sectional analysis revealed a 31% variation in abnormal returns due to some significant factors such as firm size, leverage, liquidity and other dummy variables. However, individual firms were barely affected and performance variable was hardly a factor, suggesting the fact that flexible firms cope better with macroeconomic setbacks.
