Voluntary Disclosure and Strategic Stock Repurchases∗
We study the choice of disclosure and share repurchase strategies of informed managers. Using a model that captures how direct disclosures and share repurchases differentially impact short and long-term stock value, we ask when will they choose disclosure, or repurchases, or both. We find that both direct disclosure and share repurchase policies emerge in equilibrium in different regions of fir...

In particular, share repurchases increase the accuracy of the stock price after negative infor...

We find that young firms have a higher propensity to pay cash through repurchases than they did in the past and that repurchases have become the preferred form of initiating a ca...
