- [5454054-010](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5454054-010) [mechanism/argued] -- LER reduces stock price volatility because ongoing consumption-based voucher rewards give shareholders a reason to hold rather than sell, which stabilizes demand for the issuer's stock.
  > LER counteracts selling pressure by offering ongoing consumption-based voucher rewards that incentivize shareholders to retain their investments over the long term. This retention effect stabilizes demand for the company's stock, resulting in lower price fluctuations
