Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find empirical evidence of whether return on equity and company size have an influence on stock returns during Covid-19 in transportation subsector companies listed. Data collection techniques include library research and document studies related to research. The outcomes of these thoughts are based on information examination and testing. Based on the outcome of tests conducted in this study, the Return On Value (X1) appears to be a beta coefficient with a positive sign of 0.012 and a critical level of 0.736. This shows that the variable Return on Equity (X1) has no significant effect on stock returns during Covid-19 in transportation subsector companies. The second finding is based on the results of tests conducted; firm size (X²) shows a beta coefficient with a positive indication of 0.027, which means it has a significant effect on stock returns during Covid-19 in transportation subsector companies.
