Note(s): This table estimates the effect of long-term institutional shareholdings (LT (%)) on the stock market response (CARs) to target price revisions (TP∆/P), after accounting for the information environment of firms. Panel A provides the results for the idiosyncratic volatility, and Panel B presents the results for the generalized probability of informed trading (PIN). All the variables are defined in table A1 in Appendix. The t-statistics are reported in parentheses. Standard errors are clustered at the firm level. *, ** and *** denote statistical significance for the coefficients at 10%, 5% and 1% respectively
