Abstract
-
This study analyzes the impact of firm specific news developments on stock prices and stock trading volume. A methodology is formulated to quantitatively measure the market value of news stories in dollars. The effects are also measured for certain sub-samples of news which vary in the form neutral to extreme news. The role of financial risk, as measured by a firm's beta, is also explored. In addition, the impact of the January anomaly is also considered.
