Faculty Research
Faculty study the impact of Halliburton
In the article “After Halliburton: Event Studies and Their Role in Federal Securities Fraud Litigation,” Professors Jill Fisch, Jonah Gelbach, and Jonathan Klick explore an array of considerations related to the use of event studies in securities fraud litigation. Highlighting the limitations of event studies, they explain how those limitations relate to the legal issues for which they are introduced. These limitations bear upon important normative questions about the role event studies should play in securities fraud litigation.
