**Affirmed position.** The Differential Effect of Regulatory Signals on Shareholder Dissent finds that a disclosure-rule change affected shareholder dissent differently as domestic versus foreign institutional ownership increased. This supplies an empirical example of institution-specific reactions to regulatory information relevant to Kaal's dynamic-rulemaking mechanism. The abstract does not establish that the regulator used the response as feedback or adjusted a later rule.
