Dear Researchers,
I want to conduct an event study about "the Stock Market Reaction towards Government Environmental Policies in Pakistan" for my MS thesis. Therefore, i need some help in designing my research proposal.
Is it feasible study? Data would be available? Methodology?
And the most important one, How i can control for other economic or political factors?
Can i replicate any one of the following attached articles in Pakistan?
What is the objective or purpose of the research? Will it contribute to an improvement in public decision making? If yes, please explain and provide reasons. I believe that research should be useful. It is not clear to me how this research will helpful.
Joseph Tham Thank you for your concern.
Major objective of this study is to complete my MS (Management of Sciences)/ M.Phil degree. Now moving towards contribution, this study would be useful to policy makers to have an empirical look on what their policies real have impact on stock market?. At the end we can provide some suggestions about how and when to implement, and where to implement these policies urgently.
Mubeen Asghar I have not looked at the literature. However, my guess is that if we make a LIST of all the key and important factors that influence the stock market, environmental policies would not be high on that list. You can answer this by doing a thorough literature review. I hope that you can prove that I am mistaken in my guess.
