Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We examine the immediate short-term effects of the election results using event study analysis on 1546 NSE-listed firms and find significant adverse market reactions around the counting day. However, the market recovers with expectations of a stable government. Sectoral analysis showed varied recovery across sectors. Cross-sectional analysis indicates that larger firms and those with better fundamentals manage uncertainties better, while volatile and highly-priced stocks suffer more. The findings theoretically contribute to the semi-strong form of the efficient market and uncertain information hypotheses.
