  • Abstract
    This paper extends the dividend catering theory raised by Baker and Wurgler (2004) and predicts that expected dividend per share is negatively related to those factors below: the information ratio about dividend cost, the percentage of stock ownership, as well as the premiums of tax, risk, investment. Besides, in another extension of basic model, we incorporate overconfident psychology bias to arbitrageurs, and explain how psychology bias effect dividend payout propensity.
