48 results for stock market efficiency

Study shows stock market efficiency varies over time and can be networked.

problem Understanding the dynamic and collective aspects of stock market efficiency.
method Defined and calculated time-varying efficiency using permutation entropy of log-returns.
result Major world stock markets can be hierarchically classified into groups with similar efficiency profiles, but these rankings are unstable.

We study the temporal evolution of the market efficiency in the stock markets using the complexity, entropy density, standard deviation, autocorrelation function, and probability distribution of the log return for Standard and Poor's 500 (S&P 500), Nikkei stock average index, and Korean composition stock price index (K…

Study finds long memory in some emerging Asian stocks but not in developed markets.

problem Evaluating stock market efficiency in emerging vs developed markets.
method Improved wavelet estimator of long range dependence.
result Emerging Asian markets show more long memory in stock returns than developed markets.

SHHK Stock Connect increases A-H share price premium, more for less efficient markets.

problem Impact of financial liberalization on cross-market pricing efficiency.
method Monthly data for 67 A-H dual-listed firms, system GMM dynamic models.
result Heterogeneous effect of SHHK Stock Connect on A-H price premium, more pronounced for less efficient markets.

Study finds super-efficiency correlates more strongly with stock market valuation than ROA in Chinese banks.

problem Investigating the relationship between bank efficiency and stock market valuation.
method Employed a non-radial, non-oriented slack-based super-efficiency Data Envelopment Analysis (Super-SBM-UND-VRS) model, treating NPLs as undesired output.
result Super-efficiency is more strongly correlated with stock market valuation than ROA, as measured by Tobin's Q.

Study examines how COVID-19 affected stock and crypto market efficiency.

problem Impact of COVID-19 on market efficiency of different asset classes.
method Analysis of price returns, absolute returns, and volatility increments in stock and cryptocurrency markets.
result Market efficiency varied by asset class and market, with some time series showing gradual decline over time.

Study finds mixed evidence of monthly stock market anomalies in Turkey and US.

problem Investigating whether stock markets exhibit abnormal returns monthly.
method Statistical summary analysis, decomposition technique, dummy variable estimation, binary logistic regression.
result Weak evidence against efficient market hypothesis on monthly returns, with notable May effect in Turkey.

Hypothesis of Market Efficiency is an important concept for the investors across the globe holding diversified portfolios. With the world economy getting more integrated day by day, more people are investing in global emerging markets. This means that it is pertinent to understand the efficiency of these markets. This …

It is believed by the majority today that the efficient market hypothesis is imperfect because of market irrationality. Using the physical concepts and mathematical structures of quantum mechanics, we construct an econophysics framework for the stock market, based on which we analogously map massive numbers of single s…

China's stock market is the largest emerging market all over the world. It is widely accepted that the Chinese stock market is far from efficiency and it possesses possible linear and nonlinear dependence. We study the predictability of returns in the Chinese stock market by employing the wild bootstrap automatic varia…

Useful alpha returns vanished in modern stock markets.

problem The inefficiency of modern stock markets in generating useful alpha.
method Analysis of 200 published long-short anomaly equity portfolios over different time periods and stock selection criteria.
result Even modest allowances for luck or transaction costs eliminated published academic anomalies.

We pursue the quantum-mechanical challenge to the efficient market hypothesis for the stock market by employing the quantum Brownian motion model. We utilize the quantum Caldeira-Leggett master equation as a possible phenomenological model for the stock-market-prices fluctuations while introducing the external harmonic…

It has been assumed that arbitrage profits are not possible in efficient markets, because future prices are not predictable. Here we show that predictability alone is not a sufficient measure of market efficiency. We instead propose to measure inefficiencies of markets in terms of the maximal profit an ideal trader can…

The paper predicts an Efficient Market Property for the equity market, where stocks, when denominated in units of the growth optimal portfolio (GP), have zero instantaneous expected returns. Well-diversified equity portfolios are shown to approximate the GP, which explains the well-observed good performance of equally …

This paper evaluates random forest models for predicting stock price trends.

problem Predicting stock price trends to assist investors in making informed decisions.
method Random forest models combined with artificial intelligence, using optimal parameters.
result Random forest models show better predictive performance and time efficiency.

Project predicts stock prices for robust portfolio design in Indian sectors.

problem Precise stock price prediction for robust portfolio design.
method Minimum variance and optimal risk portfolio optimization using past stock prices.
result Backtesting shows improved performance of optimized portfolios over equal weight portfolio.

Recent studies show that a negative shock in stock prices will generate more volatility than a positive shock of similar magnitude. The aim of this paper is to appraise the hypothesis under which the conditional mean and the conditional variance of stock returns are asymmetric functions of past information. We compare …

Previous studies of the stock price response to trades focused on the dynamics of single stocks, i.e. they addressed the self-response. We empirically investigate the price response of one stock to the trades of other stocks in a correlated market, i.e. the cross-responses. How large is the impact of one stock on other…

Although the threshold network is one of the most used tools to characterize the underlying structure of a stock market, the identification of the optimal threshold to construct a reliable stock network remains challenging. In this paper, the concept of dynamic consistence between the threshold network and the stock ma…

This paper uses cointegration to identify profitable pair-trading strategies for Indian stocks.

problem Finding profitable pair-trading opportunities in Indian stock market.
method Cointegration analysis to identify co-movement stocks, forming pairs, evaluating portfolios.
result Pairs from auto and realty sectors generally yielded the highest returns, while IT sector pairs had negative returns.

Machine learning models show intermarket data can predict stock market performance better than expected.

problem Evaluating the semi-strong form of the Efficient Market Hypothesis.
method Used machine learning techniques on various intermarket data sets to predict stock market performance.
result Intermarket data significantly outperforms baselines in predicting stock market movement, contradicting the semi-strong EMH.

A consistency criterion for price impact functions in limit order markets is proposed that prohibits chain arbitrage exploitation. Both the bid-ask spread and the feedback of sequential market orders of the same kind onto both sides of the order book are essential to ensure consistency at the smallest time scale. All t…
