Abstract

The current COVID-19 has lasted for a long time, and the Chinese government has relaxed the control of the pandemic after many considerations. Numerous researches about the COVID-19's effects on the economy and business are currently available. But few studies are on the pharmaceutical industry and the Deregulation. Therefore, this paper selects the Pharmaceutical and Biological Full Benefit as the research object. And then uses the ARIMA model to perform time series fitting and prediction of the closing price series in the past period. By comparing the predicted and real values, how the Deregulation affected the stock price of the biopharmaceutical sector could be determined. After modeling analysis, it is concluded that a positive effect has been produced by the Deregulation on the stock price of the pharmaceutical industry. Further study shows that there is a short-term lag in the impact, and the relative growth rate is not large. And the impact has been observed with certain short-term nature through the prediction results. This paper innovatively uses stock price fluctuations as an insertion point to explore the impact of the Deregulation on the pharmaceutical industry, which has profound practical guiding significance. For Chinese policy makers, it is suggested that the country should cooperate with the improvement and upgrading of the pharmaceutical industry. For investors, it is suggested that they should maintain a more stable and positive wait-and-see attitude towards the pharmaceutical industry.
