While he talked of hope and change, the media praised his rhetoric. This paper proposes a methodology based on word occurrence and manual content analysis to analyse whether his public speeches drive the financial markets. The econometric evidence suggests that even though his speeches per se do not have an impact on the markets, some of his specific oratorical features do. This impact is visible both on contemporaneous daily returns and on cumulative (three days and seven days) returns.NSBE - UNLTavares, JoséRUNSazedj, Sharmin2013-06-11T12:45:27Z2010-012010-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/9857enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T03:43:13Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/9857Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:19:05.094897Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
