Analyse intraquotidienne de l'impact des "news" sur le marché boursier français

TLDR
In this article, the impact of public information on the French capital market has been studied and it is shown that earnings announcements, rumors and mergers and acquisitions operations have a great importance on stock prices.
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study the impact of public information on the French capital market. Analysis is conducted on intraday data concerning firms which belong both to CAC 40 (important capitalization) and MIDCAC (weak capitalization). Data cover the period January 1995 to December 1999. In order to put forward the impact of public information on stock prices, we apply two non-parametric tests: the threshold test and the run test. Our results show that earnings announcements, rumors and mergers and acquisitions operations have a great importance on stock prices. These various announcements have not been correctly anticipated since they have an important impact on stock prices. These conclusions question the efficient capital French market hypothesis in its semi-strong form. J.E.L. Classification : G14.
