Abstract:
In the current context of the health crisis of 2020, in which financial analysts and researchers foresee an economic and financial crisis that will follow, this work analyses the subject of the psychology of participants in financial market mechanisms, as a determining factor of their evolution. Financial market reviews should not overlook the emotional component of the stock market functioning. Market sentiment plays an important role in the evolution of stock market volatility and can significantly influence registered indices in a positive or negative sense. This theoretical study of investor sentiment is a conceptual foundation of the economic reality we live in. Based on a concatenation of the aspects that researchers have expressed in their scientific researches, this study concludes by determining causal factors of the parallel evolution of market sentiment and economic growth. At the same time, the aim of the study is to draw the attention regarding the implications that an enhancement of investors' sentiment may have on the deepening of the decline of financial markets. In the context of the Covid-19 crisis, the study's conclusion is a recommendation to investors for rational balance and caution in the basis of decisions.
