A new study published on arXiv explores how financial markets react to news, particularly focusing on the timing and nature of price movements. Using a large language model to classify over 4.5 million financial news articles, researchers found that price changes associated with news events are heavily concentrated around the publication date, with rumors often capturing the entire price move before confirmation. The study also indicates that markets tend to underreact to quantifiable financial data like earnings reports but overreact to qualitative news such as product launches or leadership changes, with the latter often reversing over time. Furthermore, news publicity increases stock volatility prior to publication, which then subsides as uncertainty is resolved. AI
