“…In summary, the literature on short term overreactions remains vibrant with studies on emerging markets (for example Boubaker et al (2015), Pokavattana et al (2019), Zaremba (2019), and Mynhardt and Plastun (2013)), cross sectional international studies (for example Blackburn and Cakici (2017)), and studies on other markets such as the cryptocurrency market (for example Caporale and Plastun (2019b), and Caporale and Plastun (2019c)). The historical question on the existence and the reasons of market overreactions remains relevant today in developed markets and can even collaborate what is observed in new markets.…”
