This table reports the summary statistics for daily credit spread changes (in bps) during the Global Financial Crisis period. Following Bao et al. (2018), we define the crisis period as from July 1, 2007, to April 30, 2009. To calculate credit spread changes, we require at least two consecutive daily observations for bond prices. r is stock returns adjusted for delisting. ΔBAS is changes in bid-ask spreads, and ΔVOL is changes in trading volume. We winsorize all continuous variables at the 1% and 99% levels to exclude outliers.
