This paper presents a financial and economic approach to valuation. In addition to
traditional discounted cash flow methods, one family of valuation models, economic
value added (EVA) and other franchise factor approaches, has become a favorite methodology
for corporate valuation. In EVA approaches, the key value driver is the spread between
the return on the existing investments and their average cost of capital. Therefore,
this approach focuses on the left-hand side of the balance sheet. The important aspect
of this issue is not its technical interest or which of the different values of a
company is correct, but what the value drivers are that each method identifies

No one wants to trade those who have better information. In markets where trades
have
asymmetric information, however, both informed and uninformed trades must make strategic
trading decisions. Because public announcements can affect the information asymmetry
between traders, these strategic decisions are likely to be most important around
public announcements. How concerned should uniformed trades be about the potential
information asymmetry when trading around public announcements? Surprisingly, whether
for large-block trades or for the entire order flow, there is no evidence that the
uniformed can trade on more favorable terms by varying the timing of their trades
in relation to a quarterly earnings announcement.
