Firm communication and investor response: A framework and discussion integrating social media

Elizabeth Blankespoor

Stanford University

Abstract

I provide a general framework of firms’ financial communication process and investor response to information, moving from disclosure through dissemination to investor response and management response. I then discuss the entrance of social media into firm communications, highlighting both classic and unique aspects of social media in the communication process. I place Cade (2018) in this literature and discuss areas ripe for future research. Finally, I encourage researchers interested in social media to acknowledge and embrace the unique opportunities and challenges in this area.
