Do so by constructing the cumulative abnormal return (CAR) from day -10 to day 10 and then making a plot of this (this should result in one set of numbers and one plot similar to that of 2b in Fama, Fisher, Jensen and Roll (FFJR 1969)). Assume that the CAPM is the appropriate expected return model. Also assume a risk-free rate of 0, and that each firm has a beta of 1 with the market.(ii) Was the market response consistent with what would be expected in an efficient mar- ket? Explain your answer in a couple of sentences. If you believe that the market response is not consistent with an efficient market, then also detail all the forms of market efficiency violated (weak, semi-strong, strong).
