Abstract
We explore the impact of economic policy uncertainty exposure (hereafter, EPU exposure) on stock price bubbles. We find that there exists a significantly positive relationship between EPU exposure and stock price bubbles. This result is still significant after a series of robustness checks. Moreover, the relationship between EPU exposure and bubbles is due to retail investors' speculative trading behavior. In addition, optimistic aggregate states and firms with higher information uncertainty characteristics strengthen the EPU exposure effects. Overall, we provide unique evidence regarding the impact of uncertainty on stock prices.
