Question 2: Edward Saunders publishadanarticle that tested the pumibility that the stock market is afl'ectedby the weather on Wall Street. Using daily data from 28 years, he estimated an equation with thefollowing significant variables {standard errors in pare-clithm):1 A. L DJi = at + 0.10XR1—1 + omme, — names + annasxq{0.01) (0.0006) (0.004} (0.0002)N=6.911 R2:l].02where:DJ; = theperoentagediangeintheDowJoneaindustrialaverageondaytR; = thedsflyindexoapitalgainorioasfordaytJ, = adummyvariableequaltolifthetthdwwasinJanuaryandUotherwiseM3 = adummyvariableequaltolifthetthdaywasahiondayandDotherwiaeC; = adummyvariableequaltolifthecloudooveronthetthday mmpermntmlmequalto—liithecloudomerwaamflperoentandDotherwise a) Saunders did not include an estimate ofthe constant term in his published estimation results.
