Popis: We find empirical evidence suggesting that the volatility dynamics of Japanese firms cross-listed in the US is characterized as a Meteor Shower with Country-Specific News. Furthermore, we find differences in volatility dynamics depending on the international exposure of firms. These differences are consistent with a higher contribution of foreign traders (foreign markets) to the price discovery process of Japanese firms with higher international exposure, and with a news-correlated process for these firms. We also find weaker empirical evidence suggesting a higher contribution of Japanese traders to the price discovery process of Japanese firms with lower international exposure.
