The stock performance is based on daily price of selected industrial counters, daily industrial volume and daily industrial index (30 days before and 30 days after the budget announcement).The budget variable is represented by corporate tax, income tax and EPF. Using the regression and correlation analysis, an alternate hypothesis is developed.The hypothesis states that price, volume and index are dependent on those budget variables.Computed by a statistical package, SPSS, the coefficient of correlation , coefficient of determination and t~statistic test are used to quantify the relationship.
