  • Mood and Stock Returns the Effect of Weather Conditions and Biorhythm on the Dutch Stock Market
    Mood and Stock Returns The effect of weather conditions and biorhythm on the Dutch stock market Juline Nijhout 354646 Supervisor: Prof. Han Bleichrodt Erasmus School of Economics Erasmus University, Rotterdam This thesis is submitted for the Master of Science in Behavioural Economics November 2016 Abstract This master thesis investigates the influence of mood classified as investor sentiment in financial markets on Dutch stock market returns. The Dutch weather and biorhythm are used as mood-proxy variables to measure its influence on the large-cap AEX Index and the small-cap AScX Index between 2005 and 2016. The statistical significance is evaluated using Ordinary Least Squares regression analysis with Newey-West standard errors and Least Absolute Deviations. The results do not violate the efficient market hypothesis for large-cap stocks in the Netherlands. Significant effects are found for Seasonal Affective Disorder and temperature on small-cap stocks, but these regression coefficients are smaller than 0.0005. Preface This master thesis is the final project of my master in Behavioural Economics at the Erasmus School of Economics in Rotterdam. By writing this thesis I developed a more thorough understanding of statistics and conducting research. Also, this has been a great opportunity to combine the knowledge of behavioural economics and finance I gained during the past year. In the existing literature, different events have been examined that are associated with investor mood. I chose the weather and biorhythm, since all investors are exposed to these conditions. I enjoyed writing this thesis, especially because the results could have major practical implications. I would like to thank dr.
