This research adopted common stocks that entered the Taiwanese stock market during the period of 2008 to 2009 as research subjects to investigate if the speed of stock price correction relates to the quality of financial statements. The results of this empirical research show that during the research period the quality of financial statements quality did not significantly influence the speed of investor responses. However, the speed of response was affected by firm size, debt ratio, institutional ownership ratio, and book value to market value. In contrast, advertising expenditure, number of employees, and stock turnover did not have any influence on the speed of response.
