Note(s): This table reports the results from regressions of one-week future returns on the foreign option volume ratio quintiles, that is, O/S_forg(Q), P/C_forg(Q), Net C/S_forg(Q) and Net C/S_forg(Q). The dependent variable in Panel A is the next-day raw return. The dependent variable in Panel B is the next-day market-adjusted return. t-statistics are based on standard errors adjusted for firm-clustering effect and are in parentheses. ***, ** and * denote statistical significance at the 1%, 5% and 10% levels, respectively. The sample period is from November 2014 to May 2022
