A Variety of Stock Message Boards

Ying Zhang

Chapter 2 in Stock Message Boards, 2014, pp 19-38 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In today’s volatile market, we have discovered the significant impact that even a single message can have on the financial markets when that message is posted on the Internet. As mentioned in Chapter 1, a fake bomb blast posted on Twitter on April 23, 2013, caused the Dow Jones Industrial Average to drop more than one percent ($200 billion lost) in just two minutes.
