dc.description.abstract | The efficient market hypothesis proposed by Eugene Fama in 1970 states that a market in which prices always fully reflect available information is called efficient. It was a utopia that to call a financial market as efficient. However, the reflection of information to prices is possible in our era, thanks to technological developments. As smartphones become prevalent, they provided many possibilities for investors. Notably, the applications of social media (e.g., Twitter) present a source of the news about all companies. Investors can use social media information for their investment decisions. In this study, we aim to investigate whether there is a relationship between the number of tweets and stock returns of four favorite companies in the technology sector of S&P500 (AAPL, GOOGL, AMZN, MSFT) or not. The hourly data contain the stock returns and three different tweet sentiments which called total, positive, and negative score categories from May 7, 2018, to November 12, 2018. It was gathered from Bloomberg Professional Terminal News & Social Sentiment Database. We examined symmetric and asymmetric casual relationships via Granger and Asymmetric Causality test approaches, respectively. The results of Granger causality test indicate that there is an impact of negative tweet sentiments on AAPL, AMZN, MSFT stock returns, but not for GOOGL. According to the asymmetric causality test results, there are causality relationships between positive/negative shocks of tweet sentiments and stock returns. | en_US |
