Rotation towards normality – the impact of COVID-19 vaccine-related news on global financial markets

Johannes Gräb (), Moritz Kellers and Helena Le Mezo

Economic Bulletin Boxes, 2021, vol. 1

Abstract: Using a database on vaccine probability events dating back to April 2020, this box assesses the impact of a broad range of COVID-19 vaccine-related news on global financial markets. It finds that positive vaccine news leads to a rotation back towards assets hardest hit by the pandemic, disproportionately benefits lagging economies and has a positive net effect on financial conditions. JEL Classification: F30, G15
