Out-of-sample stock return predictability of alternative covid-19 indices
No full textInternational audienceWe explore the predictive value of the various indices developed to capture COVID-19 pandemic for daily stock return predictability of 24 Emerging Market economies (based on data availability). We identify eight measures of COVID-19 indices, namely, the uncertainty due to pandemics and epidemics (UPE) index, Global Fear Index (GFI), COVID index, vaccine index, medical index, travel index, uncertainty index and aggregate COVID-19 sentiment index. We find that, out of the considered measures, the GFI consistently offers the best out-of-sample forecast gains followed by the aggregate COVID-19 sentiment index while the UPE index offers the least predictability gains. The outcome generally improves after controlling for oil price but the ranking of forecast performance remains the same and robust to multiple forecast horizons and alternative forecast evaluation methods. We infer that the relative predictive powers of the indices are proportional to the extent to which the indices truly measure the pandemic

Tracking the Wines of the Judgment of Paris Over Time. The Case of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars' Cabernet Sauvignon
No full textInternational audienceThe outcome of the famous 1976 Judgment of Paris, a blind wine tasting of ten wines by nine French judges, brought American wines to the forefront of the wine business. A Californian wine, the 1973 Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon, was declared the winner, surpassing four highly prized French wines (Cha^teau Mouton-Rothschild 1970, Cha^teau Montrose 1970, Château Haut-Brion 1970, and Château Le´oville Las Cases 1971). We collect ratings from experts for (almost) all vintages of the same ten wines over the years 1968-2021 and find that the Stag’s Leap Cabernet Sauvignon is far from being first. We conclude that either the 1973 vintage was overrated by the experts who tasted it in 1976, or 1973 was merely an outlier in this winery. (JEL Classifications: C18, L15, L66)
Managing Wine Tourism and Biodiversity: The Art of Ambidexterity for Sustainability
No full textInternational audienceWine tourism is a mutually beneficial opportunity for customers to experience a wine region and for wine producers to promote their individual practices and approaches in the winemaking process. This article aims to understand producers’ perspectives on the challenges they face when trying to protect their wine estate’s biodiversity as they develop wine-related touristic ctivities.The research is based on an exploratory, multiple case study of wine producers, who are protecting their wine estate’s biodiversity on in Languedoc-Roussillon region, France. The study revealsthe important synergies between biodiversity and wine tourism to increase global sustainability, to bond with customers and to positively impact the wine region. Yet, promoting biodiversity on a wine estate creates tensions on resources and requires investments which are not always highly profitable. Raising awareness about biodiversity is also much needed at both ends of the “producer-customer” relationship. Our results led us to develop an ambidexterity model, adapted to the management of wineries, that concurrently protects their biodiversity and develops wine tourism. Webelieve these results can be useful for both public and private stakeholders to adapt their wine tourism service offers, and support wine producers in their quest to develop biodiversity of their lands and overall sustainability.Wine tourism is a mutually beneficial opportunity for customers to experience a wine region and for wine producers to promote their individual practices and approaches in the winemaking process.

Functional diversification and exaptation: the emergence of new drug uses in the pharma industry
No full textInternational audienceThe process by which new uses or functions for an existing artifact (e.g. technology) emerge is an important yet understudied source of innovation. We call this process functional diversification (FD). We measure and characterize FD by focusing on the emergent uses of a class of technological resources: pharmaceutical drugs. We show that FD contains both an adaptive and an exaptive part and that it exhibits several empirical regularities regarding the number of new uses embedded in existing technological resources, the distant/proximate distribution of uses relative to their original use, and the role played by what in the life sciences are known as “mechanisms of action” and in the technology realm “functionalities” in the generation of new uses. We argue (or suggest) that FD is at the core of several theoretical perspectives—exaptation, Penrose’s firm growth, and shadow option theories—whose complementarities could be integrated into a general framework to understand and manage the emergence of new uses from existing resources
Creating a Culture to Avoid Knowledge Hiding Within an Organization: The Role of Management Support
No full textInternational audienceKnowledge hiding is known to have negative consequences on organizational performance. The existing literature mainly focuses on the identification of antecedents and consequences of knowledge hiding. The studies pertaining to the top management role in creating a culture that stops concealing knowledge within an organization are limited. To fill that gap, the paper empirically address the knowledge sharing culture and to explore the management support to avoid knowledge hiding culture in an organization. This study based on an empirical study carried out in a United Kingdom-based laboratory within a high-tech global corporation, in which the atmosphere appeared conducive to knowledge sharing, and knowledge transfer appeared voluntary and spontaneous. The paper seeks to address why members of the case organization is reluctant about knowledge hiding among themselves. The study reveals that the management role is important in creating a culture that help discourage employees to withhold knowledge. The paper identifies the actions that top management takes to stop concealing knowledge within an organization. This study has provided several contributions. The findings of the study may be useful to managers and practitioners. For managers, this paper presents some important organizational factors that can be nurtured to avoid a knowledge-hiding culture in the organization. They can also take the management actions of the case organization as lessons to create a culture that encourage their employees to avoid knowledge hiding behavior
