Abstract
⺠We examine the announcement of consumer sentiment on US stock and futures markets. ⺠We find that the consumer sentiment announcement has valuable information content. ⺠An asymmetric response is observed for “good” versus “bad” sentiment news. ⺠The effect of negative consumer sentiment announcements is in salient stocks. ⺠The results support the availability heuristic.
