Abstract
The relationship between sticky wages and risk has important asset pricing implications. Like operating leverage, sticky wages are a source of risk for the firm. Firms, industries, regions, or times with especially high or rigid wages are especially risky. If wages are sticky, then wage growth should negatively forecast future stock returns because falling wages are associated with even bigger falls in output, and increases in operating leverage. Indeed, this is the case in aggregate, industry, and U.S. state level data. Furthermore, this relation is stronger in industries and U.S. states with higher wage rigidity.
5. Conclusion
1 Sticky wages are an important and widely studied topic in macroeconomics and labor 2 economics. This paper shows that they also have important implications for finance. 3 Sticky wages work like operating leverage, making the firm riskier. During bad times 4 revenue falls, but if wages are sticky, the firm’s costs fall by less, making the firm’s 5 cash flows more sensitive to aggregate shocks and riskier. This logic implies that falling 6 wages should be associated with higher risk and should forecast high future returns.
