Financial market sentiment and stock return during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Article in Finance research letters, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Using 1,287,932 pieces of textual data from news media, we measure the financial market sentiment worldwide. We conduct the first international study of the effect of the financial market sentiment on stock return during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results show that the intensification of the epidemic adversely affects the stock market, but the increasing financial market sentiment increases the stock market return, even during the worst of the pandemic. Our results remain robust using alternative proxies. Additional analysis suggests that negative sentiment has a more significant impact on stock market returns than positive sentiment. Taken together, our findings confirm that negative financial market sentiment amplifies the impact of the crisis on the stock market, and positive financial market sentiment can help mitigate the losses caused by the shock.
