  • Stock Market Reaction to Election Results: an Event Study Analysis
    Facultat d’Economia i Empresa Memòria del Treball de Fi de Grau Stock Market reaction to Election Results: an Event Study Analysis Liliana Rebeca Dutra Duffy Grau de Administració d’Empreses Any acadèmic 2019-20 DNI de l’alumne: 41624155C Treball tutelat per Pau Balart Castro Departament d’Economia de l’empresa S'autoritza la Universitat a incloure aquest treball en el Repositori Autor Tutor Institucional per a la seva consulta en accés obert i difusió en línia, Sí No Sí No amb finalitats exclusivament acadèmiques i d'investigació Paraules clau del treball: Event study, shares, dummy variables, survey, regressions, abnormal returns... ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to find the possible effect that estimation vote surveys have over the share prices of public companies listed in the Spanish stock market. To test this effect, we used the event study methodology. For the event study, daily data from 6 firms listed on the IBEX35 index are analyzed over the period of 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2015. Alongside the event study, another analysis has been conducted to test the economic literature that finds a positive relation between right-wing parties and the stock market. The results of this paper have not shown significant changes for the days surrounding the publication of estimation vote, known as event day. Although it can be observed a positive reaction to PP vote increases, confirming what the literature suggests. This indicates that the event indeed does affect the stock market depending on which party outcomes the other. The results also indicate that certain companies were more exposed to the political results than others.

Irina Matijosaitiene Co-supervisor Johan Jacob Marija De Wachter Reviewer Assoc. prof. dr. Martynas Marozas Project made by Ana Petriashvili KAUNAS 2017 2 ANNOTATION The lack of researches, concentrating on identifying urban features that can be associated with target selection by terrorists, determined thesis overriding question and goal, identify environmental security design elements, as well as spatial urban structures that can possible influence choice of places for terror attacks. To accomplish main goal, some prerequisite goals have been taken into account. Initially, a brief history of terrorism and anti-terrorism design with number of examples and cases have been analyzed and assessed, where some sophisticated security design principles have been highlighted. For humanizing ant-terrorism design elements, crime prevention strategies have been explored, ending with a basic principle of urban and civic design. Second Chapter of a thesis, researches environmental design factors and spatial urban structures that may influence the choice of places for terror attacks. Findings have reviled the chance of terror attack is high when ‘site has a direct access to the main street’; when ‘there are multiple entrances and exits to and from the site’; when ‘site is well-used’; when ‘public and private activities are separated’; when ‘many same functional buildings are redistributed in a surrounding area’; when ‘site has a direct access to the city center’.
