Sentiment changes and the Monday effect

Abstract

We examine whether investor sentiment changes explain the decrease in stock prices after weekends, also known as the Monday effect. Absolute changes in sentiment significantly and positively impact stock returns, whereas its positive impact declines after weekends. The negative stock returns on Mondays disappear after controlling for the impact of over-the-weekend sentiment changes under the pessimistic sentiment.
