This study focuses on the impact that the movement of information has on share prices in the short and long term, and uses the BP Oil Spill as a case study. The study begins by identifying the aims and objectives of the study, and follows by introducing the background to the problem. The review of literature examines a wide range of subjects, some of which include the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), the Agency Theory, and The BP Oil Spill Disaster. The study then presents the methodology which identifies the data used, as well as the tools and sources that the study implemented. The next section of the study looks at the results and findings based on the data collected, and conclusions are made by comparing the project aims and achievements. The study also suggests recommendations for future research.
