Weather Attention in Online Discourse and Price Uncertainty in Agricultural Futures Markets
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Weather is a central determinant of production risk in agricultural markets, but markets respond not only to weather conditions themselves, but also to how those conditions are noticed, framed, and interpreted in public discourse. In this setting, real‐time online weather discussions may shape price uncertainty by influencing how market ...
