Dataset on share issuance, abnormal returns and market timing in the Brazilian stock market

Data in Brief
M C GomesM R Valle

Abstract

This article presents a dataset to investigate the determinants of firms' decision for primary share issuance and the effects of market timing on primary share issues in the Brazilian stock market. The data refer to Brazilian nonfinancial firms that issued primary shares (IPOs and SEOs) in the 2004-2015 period. The data were gathered from the online bases of Economatica® and the São Paulo Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&FBovespa). The final sample was composed of 123 firms and 165 primary share issues: 97 initial public offerings and 68 follow-on offerings. The dataset was developed to support a model that captures market timing behavior through cumulative abnormal returns and shows the effects of this behavior on the amount of proceeds raised. The dataset contains subsamples and different analysis time windows, processed and unprocessed data. Researchers can use the dataset for future research and comparisons with other markets and models. The related research article using part of the current dataset was published under the following title: "Effects of market timing on primary share issues in the Brazilian capital market" (Gomes et al.).

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
