Abstract: We uncover the unintended consequences of cash holdings in the form of adverse selection that can negatively affect the liquidity of the stocks held by funds with more cash. Facing investor redemptions, sales by these funds are more likely to be perceived as information based (i.e., due to poor asset quality) instead of funding liquidity needs, which exacerbates the adverse selection problem. An exogenous change to the information environment and placebo test using index funds help identify the adverse selection channel behind the relation between cash holdings and stock liquidity. We account for funds’ choice of cash to provide a causal interpretation of this relation structure.
