Yale ICF Working Paper No. 00-01; Yale SOM Working Paper No. ICF - 00-01

Abstract:     
Tick data on the S&P 500 futures contract and newswire searches are used to match events to large five minute stock price changes. 58 events that led to large stock price changes are identified between 1982 and 1999, 41 of which are directly or indirectly related to monetary policy. Many large five minute stock price changes have no events associated with them.
