Abstract

This study examines the momentum effect on the Moroccan stock market following the announcement of the joint organization of the 2030 World Cup. Analyzing a sample of 75 companies listed on the Casablanca Stock Exchange, we combine an event study and time series analysis. The event study assesses cumulative abnormal returns (CARs) over 60 days around the announcement, while ARIMA-GARCH analysis examines the effect's persistence over 12 months. Results show a significant CAR of 6.5% for the overall market, with more pronounced effects in tourism (13.2%), real estate (9.8%), and telecommunications (7.6%) sectors. Time series analysis confirms the effect's persistence for about 4 months. This research provides important insights for investors and policymakers in the context of emerging markets facing major economic events.
