To analyze investors reaction toward the news, this research utilized the General Linear Model (GLM) Repeated Measure ANOVA within-subject and Compare Mean Paired-Samples t-test.

Investors tend to use prior common stock price information to predict current common stock price and tend to hold common stock loss-position also to realize (sell) gainposition common stocks, or the disposition effect exists.
