Hi everybody,
I am working on a dataset about abnormal stock returns following earnings announcements. Per firm and event date, the abnormal returns for 20 days before and 30 days after the announcement are listed.
I have created the variable that denotes that maximum value of the abnormal return per firm and event date. I am having trouble generating a variable that denotes on which day that maximum value occurred.
For example, for American Airlines and the announcement date 24 july 2014, I can manually see that the maximum abnormal return occurred 2 days after the announcement and the minimum abornal return occurred 12 days before the announcement.
Could somebody please help me generate a variable that will couple 2 to the maximum abnormal return and -12 to the minimum abnormal return for all firms and event dates?
Would be a great help and thanks in advance!
Regards,
Tim
