Our results indicate that the tight bond market-macroeconomy l ink is not due to differences in the investor base\, but instead to the un ique transformations of asset volatility and leverage that credit spreads and equity volatility represent. We focus on the investment channel. Using firm-level data\, we find that the sensitivity of investment to equity vo latility is highly significant\, but changes sign in the cross section of firms depending on their distance to default. This sign change confounds a ggregate inference. We rationalize these findings using a simple structura l model of credit risk and investment with debt overhang.\n\nRegister\n\nF or more information\, please e-mail karen.robertson [at] mcgill.ca (subjec t: Virtual%20Research%20Seminar) .\n DTSTART:20210903T150000Z DTEND:20210903T161500Z SUMMARY:Desmarais Global Finance Research Centre Virtual Seminar: Andrea Ei sfeldt URL:/desautels/channels/event/desmarais-global-finance -research-centre-virtual-seminar-andrea-eisfeldt-332986 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
