Given the above, we investigate whether the COVID-19 pandemic increases herding behaviour in capital markets in Europe. The level of herding is more evident when daily data is used (Tan et al., 2008 January in the Federal state of Bavaria; in Italy Chinese tourists were diagnosed on 30 January on board a cruise ship; in the United Kingdom the first cases were reported on 31 January in the city of York; and in Spain the first patient with COVID-19 was identified on 31 January in La Gomera (Georgeou and Hawksley, 2020) .	./cache/cord-314113-m46j1379.txt	./txt/cord-314113-m46j1379.txt
