Abstract

This study investigates price adjustments on the Warsaw Stock Exchange after the referendum on Brexit. Contrary to our expectations, we found that investors’ reactions were uniform with regard to the firms’ dependence on European markets or reliance on export activities in general. Other fundamental factors only moderately influenced investors’ decisions.
