报告摘要：
This study investigates the cross-sectional relationship between firm-level international trade target political risk(ITTPR) and expected stock returns. Using proprietary customs data representing Chinese firms’international trade and monthly data presenting 139 countries’political risk score from the International Country Risk Guide, we find that stocks with higher ITTPR outperform stocks with lower ITTPR by 4.30% per year. This effect is driven by the ambiguity aversion and risk compensation rather than investors’ limited attention, cost of arbitrage and future unexpected earnings. The positive relationship between ITTPR and expected stock returns holds even after controlling for widely accepted firm characteristics. Moreover. the return premium of higher ITTPR stock demonstrates a 2-month continuation,which is statistically significant and economically meaningful. The results remain robust when considering international trade economic policy uncertainty, firm-level Chinese political risk, and six essential financial anomalies.
