“…The dispersion of analysts' estimates has also been used to proxy for information asymmetry in the literature (see Lang and Lundholm 1996;Diether et al 2002;Parkash et al 1995;D'Mello and Ferris 2000;Autore and Kovacs 2006;Gruninger Hirschvogl 2007;Mansi et al 2006;Brick et al 2007). We check the robustness of our results using this alternate measure of asymmetric information as well.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
