We develop a return variance decomposition model to separate the role of different types of information and noise in … stock price movements. We disentangle four components: market-wide information, private firm-specific information revealed … through trading, firm-specific information revealed through public sources, and noise. Overall, 31% of the return variance is …

Using matched employer-employee-contract data for Portugal - a country with near-universal union coverage - we find evidence of a sizable effect of union affiliation on wages. Gelbach's (2016) decomposition procedure is next deployed to ascertain the contributions of worker, firm, match, and...

Motivated by the Kyle-Back model of “insider trading”, we consider certain classes of linear transformations of two independent Brownian motions and study their canonical decomposition as semimartingales in their own filtration. In particular we characterize those transformations which...
