Clustering of annual general meetings and stock returns: UK evidence

Author

  • Lawal, Tolulola

Abstract

We find evidence of a significantly negative relationship between stock returns and the clustering of annual general meetings in the UK. The negative returns during the clustering of annual general meetings are not, however, economically significant. We caution against interpreting our results as evidence of a “new anomaly” in stock market returns.
