- Abstract
This study quantifies how news propagation velocity (NPV) and investor sentiment diffusion (ISD) jointly drive short-term stock volatility. Using high-frequency social media data and vector autoregression modeling, we find: Firstly, NPV increases volatility by 0.19% per σ (15-min lag, p<0.01). Besides, ISD amplifies NPV effects by 21% (β=0.27, p<0.05), revealing an emotion-information feedback loop. Finally, Bull markets exhibit stronger NPV-ISD interactions (β=0.35 vs. 0.19 in bear markets). These findings support circuit breaker reforms and investor education frameworks.
