AMEX-to-NYSE Transfers, Market Microstructure, and Shareholder Wealth
Each year some corporate managers decide to change the listing of their firm's common stock from the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). In making this decision to switch auction markets, managers presumably act in the best interests of their shareholders. The potential implications of this managerial decision are far-reaching because differences between the AMEX and NYSE may affect security returns and share value. Little empirical research is available about whether shareholders benefit if a firm switches the trading location of its common stock from the AMEX to the NYSE.
