Online activity of Internet users has proven very useful in modeling various phenomena across a wide range of scientific disciplines. In our study, we focus on two stylized facts or puzzles surrounding the initial public offerings (IPOs) - the underpricing and the long-term underperformance. Using the Internet searches on Google, we proxy the investor attention before and during the day of the offering to show that the high attention IPOs have different characteristics than the low attention ones. After controlling for various effects, we show that investor attention still remains a strong component of the high initial returns (the underpricing), primarily for the high sentiment periods. Moreover, we demonstrate that the investor attention partially explains the overoptimistic market reaction and thus also a part of the long-term underperformance.

Accurate forecasting of stock market indices is crucial for investors, financial analysts, and policymakers. The integration of encoder and decoder architectures, coupled with an attention mechanism, has emerged as a powerful approach to enhance prediction accuracy. This paper presents a novel framework that leverages these components to capture complex temporal dependencies and patterns within stock price data.

Growing the bioeconomy requires products and pathways that are cost-competitive. Technoeconomic analyses (TEAs) aim to predict the long-term economic viability and often use what are known as n plant cost and performance parameters. However, as TEA is more widely adopted to inform everything from early-stage research to company and investor decision-making, the n plant approach is inadequate and risks being misused to inform the early stages of scale-up.

The impact of geopolitical risks (GPR) on enterprises is significant, yet the existing literature lacks a comprehensive understanding of how GPR affects environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. This study addresses this gap by analysing data from Chinese enterprises over the period 2009 to 2021. It empirically examines the impact of GPR on ESG performance and explores the underlying mechanisms.

How do physical environment risks affect financial market systemic risk? We use remoting data to measure physical environment risks and select 26 banks across 12 EU countries. We extend the CoVaR framework with the quantile-mLSTM algorithm, obtaining time-varying CoVaRs. We then use time-varying partial derivatives to calculate the banks' tail risk spillover effects.

Article Synopsis
- Financial regulators and investors are increasingly aware of climate change's impact on all investment sectors, not just energy, and are looking for ways to measure these risks.
- The paper introduces new metrics called climate Value-at-Risk (VaR) and climate Expected Shortfall (ES) to assess these climate-related risks across different sectors.
- Findings reveal that sectors respond differently to climate risks, with the Health Care sector struggling the most to manage these risks effectively, while the Energy sector stands to gain the most from improving environmental performance.
