- Abstract
- This paper evaluates the stock market performance in Russia during the COVID-19 pandemic from January 3, 2020, to April 30, 2021. The study shows daily abnormal returns of stocks declined on the day when the first coronavirus case was detected. The government’s actions in implementing lockdown restrictions and providing stimulus packages positively influenced the stock market. However, the early lifting of lockdowns sent a negative signal to investors. Despite the skepticism among the population toward the first coronavirus vaccine Sputnik V, the news of its registration, mass vaccination, and Russia’s “vaccine diplomacy” contributed to the stock market’s growth.
