Research Interests

My main research agenda concerns the relationship between stock market valuation and accounting numbers. I use statistical methods to investigate this relationship. I am particularly interested in the effect of non-financial information on stock returns. I am also interested in the valuation of loss-making firms. I use the Ohlson model (residual income model) to investigate these questions.
