Abstract

In order to investigate whether the release of relevant news has a significant effect on the daily return of the Chinese medicine sector so as to discuss consumer behavior. Based on the epidemic era and the efficient market hypothesis, this article uses the CSI Traditional Chinese medicine index and the CSI 300 index stock data to examine the data using event study methodology and hypothesis testing to investigate whether the results are significant. A total of three tests are conducted and the results are all significant, thus proving the hypothesis that the release of relevant news has a significant impact on the daily return of the Chinese medicine sector. This indicates that the investors’ decisions are not completely rational and there is a great possibility of irrational behavior of blindly following public opinion to follow the trend of investment.
