In the past, the effect of the dividends announcement event is always ignored and not addressed in existing stock price forecasting models. In this study, we employ the abnormal returns of the dividends announcement event as effect values for forecasting stock price on the Taiwan stock market. This study proposes new stock price forecasting models combining existing forecasting models and the information of abnormal returns. These models are developed and implemented using artificial neural networks (ANNs). The results based on a sample of 30 firms listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE) for the period 1981-1996 are investigated. Conclusions obtained from this study are as follows: the proposed models with the information of abnormal returns are better than those without the information of abnormal returns in terms of absolute percentage error (APE) and stock price trend prediction. |
