Navigating Stock Price Crashes B. Korcan Ak Steven Rossi Richard Sloan Scott Tracy

Abstract

If it seems like earnings announcements are the bane of stock prices, that’s probably because they often are: About 70% of all price crashes in 2014 were related to earnings announcements.

That’s the chilling finding reported by Richard Sloan , a professor at the University of California, Berkeley ’s Haas School of Business and his co-authors Korcan Ak, Steven Rossi and Scott Tracy.

To help asset managers defend their portfolios—and their reputations—from stock price crashes, the authors identified five “crash-risk flags.” They find that holdings with three or more flags warrant serious concern.

“It’s not only about avoiding crashes, but earning higher returns and lowering risk,” explains Sloan.
