| dc.title | Evaluation of the relationship between stock prices and earnings announcements by listed companies in Hong Kong | en_US |
| dcterms.abstract | This study examines the market's reaction to earnings announcements by the listed companies in the Hong Kong Stock Exchange . The earnings announcements were not found to generate a significant market reaction . Such a result is not consistent with the semi-strong form market efficiency . in that the price adjustment to publicly available information is immediate. Based on the findings in this study . Hong Kong Stock Exchange is a less than semi-strong form efficient market. The evidence found in the Hong Kong Stock market concerning the earnings announcement is different from the U.S. market which is a semi-strong efficient market . The response to the earnings announcement is not generally related to the firm size . The result of this study reveals that the market reactions by the Hang Seng Index shares and Non Hang Seng Index shares show similar overall results. | en_US |
