Unanticipated Political Events and Stock Returns: An Event Study
Jeetendra Dangol

Paper Summary

The study looked at how the stock market in Nepal reacts to unexpected political events. They found that when good news is announced, stock prices go up, and when bad news is announced, stock prices go down. This happens within 2 to 3 days after the announcement. This shows that the Nepalese stock market is not very efficient when it comes to reacting to political news. There is a strong connection between political uncertainty and how stock prices change.
