This paper examines the effect of government responses of G7 countries to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) on stock market returns. Using time-series data, we show that lockdowns, travel bans, and economic stimulus packages all had a positive effect on the G7 stock markets. However, lockdowns were most effective in cushioning the effects of COVID-19. Our results are robust to different measures of returns and controls for other factors of returns.
本文考察了七国集团(G7)国家针对新冠疫情(COVID-19)所采取的政府应对措施对股票市场回报的影响。利用时间序列数据,我们发现封锁措施、旅行禁令和经济刺激计划均对七国集团股票市场产生了积极影响。然而,封锁措施在缓冲COVID-19的影响方面最为有效。我们的结果对于回报的不同衡量方法以及回报的其他因素的控制而言是稳健的。
