The Relationship between Institutional Common Ownership, Marketing, and Firm Performance Abstract The growth in institutional holdings of public firms has led to increased interest in the concept of common ownership, in which the same investor owns stakes in multiple firms within the same industry. Economic theory suggests that common ownership could affect firm performance, but little empirical research has examined the nature of this effect or how a firm’s extant marketing potentially relates to this effect. -

Stephen F. Bollenbach
STEPHEN F. BOLLENBACH Co-Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Hilton Hotels Corporation Stephen F. Bollenbach was named co-chairman of Hilton Hotels Corporation in May 2004, and is also the company’s chief executive officer, a position he has held since joining Hilton in February 1996. Since joining Hilton, Bollenbach has overseen a complete transformation of the company including: the formation of a sales and marketing alliance between Hilton Hotels and Hilton International (owner of the Hilton brand outside the United States), which reunited the brands for the first time in 34 years; the acquisition of Bally Entertainment, which made Hilton the world’s largest gaming company, and the acquisition of some $1.5 billion of hotel real estate in markets with high barriers to entry. He has also spun off Hilton’s gaming operations in a tax-free transaction to shareholders to form Park Place Entertainment (now Caesars Entertainment Corporation), the world’s largest gaming company; and acquired Promus Hotel Corporation. The Promus acquisition added 1,400 hotels and several well-known hospitality brands including Doubletree, Embassy Suites Hotels, Hampton and Homewood Suites by Hilton to Hilton’s portfolio of outstanding properties. Under his leadership, Hilton has grown and firmly enhanced its leadership position in the lodging industry with more than 2,100 hotels and 330,000 rooms. Prior to joining Hilton Hotels Corporation, Bollenbach was senior executive vice president and chief financial officer for The Walt Disney Company, where he was instrumental in the execution of that company’s $19 billion acquisition of Capital Cities/ABC, at the time, the second-largest acquisition in U.S. -

Shetler and Sylvia Stone Orli Department of Systematic Biology Botany Section National Museum of Natural History 2002 Botany Section, Department of Systematic Biology National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560-0166 Cover illustration of Canada or nodding wild rye (Elymus canadensis L.) from Manual of the Grasses of the United States by A. S. Hitchcock, revised by Agnes Chase (1951). iii PREFACE The first part of our Annotated Checklist, covering the 2001 species of Ferns, Fern Allies, Gymnosperms, and Dicotyledons native or naturalized in the Washington-Baltimore Area, was published in March 2000. Part II covers the Monocotyledons and completes the preliminary edition of the Checklist, which we hope will prove useful not only in itself but also as a first step toward a new manual for the identification of the Area’s flora. Such a manual is needed to replace the long- outdated and out-of-print Flora of the District of Columbia and Vicinity of Hitchcock and Standley, published in 1919. In the preparation of this part, as with Part I, Shetler has been responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature and Orli for the database. As with the first part, we are distributing this second part in preliminary form, so that it can be used, criticized, and updated while the two parts are being readied for publication as a single volume.
