  1. Table 10 shows the results of analyst efforts for additional analysis. Columns 1 and 2 are grouped according to analyst on-the-spot investigations. Columns 3 and 4 columns are grouped according to geographical proximity. Columns 5 and 6 are grouped according to star analyst. The regression includes year and matched-pair fixed effects. The sample covers the company-month-analyst data of non-missing values of all variables during the period 2001–2020. Robust t-statistics corrected for firm clustering are reported in parentheses. *, ** and *** indicate statistical significance at the 10%, 5% and 1% levels, respectively. All variables are defined in Appendix A.
