ABSTRACT
This study examines the impact of investor attention, and economic policy uncertainty on travel & leisure stocks returns amid the COVID-19 pandemic. We use Google search volume (GSV) and economic policy uncertainty (EPU) as a proxy for investor attention and uncertainty. Our findings indicate greater sensitivity of travel & leisure stock returns to investor attention and economic policy uncertainty amid the COVID-19 crisis period.
