Abstract
We examine short-run patterns in government bond returns after market-moving events. Our sample covers government bond series from 17 developed countries. We find that abnormal returns follow momentum for about two weeks following an event and then reverse for a period of up to 60 days after the event. This pattern is the same for positive and negative events. However, we find that the potential to generate abnormal trading profits based on these patterns is limited.
