It means, investors can ininiinize risk caused by that political event. The results also showed no significant difference between abnormal return before and after Gus Dur & Mega election for 30 stocks that have been observed. Significant abnormal return were not found because President & Vice President election event can be categorized as an anticipated event, so before the event date investors have anticipated it long time ago.
