Abstract
This article explores the impacts of the U.S.—China on the valuations of Chinese companies listed in the United States. The results reveal that the trade war negatively impacts the daily returns of Chinese concept stocks (CCSs). With other factors controlled for, as the U.S. TPU index rises, the daily returns of CCSs decrease remarkably, and their connection with the daily returns of bilateral markets is strengthened. Furthermore, we find that with the four stages of the trade war, namely, outbreak, truce, recurrence, and mitigation, the daily returns of CCSs have correspondingly fallen, stabilized, and then fallen and stabilized again.
