摘要

Does China’s capital market respond significantly to the launch of ChatGPT, despite its unavailability to Chinese users? In this study, we empirically examine this question using a standard difference-in-differences (DID) regression model and data from China’s stock funds. Our findings reveal that after the release of ChatGPT, the Sharpe ratios and abnormal returns of funds related to ChatGPT exhibited significant improvements. Moreover, fund performance responses varied significantly by ownership structures, investment styles, and historical returns. Mechanism analysis reveals that capital inflows into ChatGPT-related concept stocks and the increase in abnormal returns are critical determinants of the improved fund performance after the launch of ChatGPT.
