论文摘要


We examine how public news affects trading activity across a firm’s equity and corporate bond markets. Using Dow Jones Newswires articles from 2002 to 2023 and DeepSeek to extract asset-specific sentiment, we show that stronger sentiment about an asset predicts higher trading volume in that asset, even after controlling for established determinants. News sentiment also transmits across markets: equity-specific sentiment is associated with higher bond trading activity, and bond-specific sentiment is associated with higher equity trading activity. Sentiment extracted from article bodies is more informative than headline sentiment for volume.  A multi-asset Kyle-type model with a public signal provides a theoretical framework that rationalizes the empirical patterns.
