Stock Price Impact System

■ Stock Price Influence Factors

• In addition to News, both Litigation Results and Business Reports now have a direct impact on stock prices.

§ Litigation Result Impact

Once a litigation ends, its outcome is reflected as a positive or negative event during the 2-hour cooldown period, temporarily affecting the target company’s stock price.

• If the defendant successfully defends the lawsuit → Treated as a positive event → Stock price rises.

• If the defendant fails to defend → Treated as a negative event → Stock price falls.

The greater the victory or defeat, the larger the resulting impact on the stock price.

§ Business Report Impact

Weekly business reports evaluate performance compared to the previous week:

• If performance improves → Treated as a positive event → Stock price rises.

• If performance declines → Treated as a negative event → Stock price falls.

• Based on performance, the company’s stock will be influenced for approximately one week.

In Week 1 of the season, the impact is based on company value rankings instead of performance comparison.

§ Viewing Impact by Factor

The combined effects of News, Litigation, and Business Reports appear as buff indicators in the stock interface:

• An upward arrow (↑) means a positive effect

• A downward arrow (↓) indicates a negative effect

The more arrows displayed, the stronger the impact on the stock price.
