In this paper we analyze the effect of Boeing Dreamliner 787’s battery problems on stockholder wealth. Using the event study methodology, we show that the recall in January of 2013 initially caused the company’s cumulative abnormal returns to fall by almost 4% in four trading days after the recall. This was followed by an announcement by two major airlines to ground all of the 787 Dreamliner jets.

However within four months of the investigation, FAA approved Boeing’s revisions …

We analyze the effect of Toyota’s faulty accelerator pedal on stockholder wealth.

The Toyota case provides an opportunity to study a product recall with both company error …
