Abstract:

Based on the spatial autocorrelation positive feedback trading model, the positive feedback trading was tested in the international stock markets around the outbreak of COVID?19 pandemic. The results showed that the positive feedback trading in the international stock markets enhanced significantly with spatial correlation after the outbreak of COVID?19 pandemic. Although the anti‐crisis regulatory measures once reversed the decline of stock markets, they also strengthened the irrational extrapolation expectations of investors and aggravated the space spillover effect of positive feedback trading in the stock markets. Therefore, facing the persistence of COVID?19 pandemic, the regulatory authorities should take better account of anti?crisis regulatory measures, which may affect investors’ psychological accounts and extrapolative expectations. Moreover, under the shock of COVID?19 pandemic, effective measures should be implemented to prevent the risk linkage due to the spatial spillover of positive feedback trading in the stock markets.

Key words: stock market, extrapolative expectation, positive feedback trading, COVID?19 pandemic, spatial spillover effect
