With the prosperity of the Internet, social media has become an important field of marketing communication activities. The marketing of social media is becoming more and more important to corporate performance and stock price. However, few scholars investigate related topics in an empirical research. It’s not easy to collect the data of electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) because eWOM is scattered in various social media and its number is huge. It is not easier to analyze further the sentiments of internet users. This study uses the OpView community word-of-mouth database to collect the network volume of listed and OTC companies between April 2018 and March 2019. The types of enterprises are restaurants, sightseeing, department stores, etc. that are directly consumed by the public;the data type is panel data. We use a fixed-effects model to examine the impact of eWOM on corporate stock prices and corporate revenues, and further discuss the impact of positive and negative eWOM on corporate revenue and performance. The empirical results show that positive eWOM can significantly increase the company's stock return. For each category of stocks, the total volume of the network can increase the company's revenue and stock return of the OTC sightseeing stocks, and also increase the stock return of the OTC trading department stocks;negative eWOM will not be conducive to Enterprise revenues in listed trade department stores. |
