This is the Full Colour version of the book including all the research data and analysis tables in the appendices. There is also a Black & White version, available at a discount, that does not include the research data and analysis tables.What is a Stock Market? How do stock markets operate? Who invests in a stock market and when is it an appropriate tool for investment? Why do we care if a stock market is efficient or not? Where can we find evidence of market efficiency? With what tools can we test market efficiency?These are some of the questions that this book approaches. The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is a theory in financial economics, developed by Eugene Fama, which states that asset prices fully reflect all available information. Thus, it is implied that stocks always trade at their fair value, making it impossible for investors to "beat the market" via technical or fundamental analysis, since market prices should only react to new information.There are three variants of the EMH: "weak," "semi-strong," and "strong" form. The weak form of the EMH claims that prices already reflect all past publicly available market information. The semi-strong form claims that prices reflect all publicly available information, thus price changes occur to reflect new publicly available information. The strong form adds to this that prices instantly reflect even hidden private "insider" information.Testing the EMH is no easy task: Quantifying the availability of information and its effect on prices and market efficiency is challenging, making research on the subject difficult, time consuming and open to criticism. However, anecdotal evidence suggests that markets at best reach semi-strong form efficiency, with weak form efficiency being the norm. However, even this is challenged by the critics of EMH, via concepts such as Behavioural Finance.This book aims to familiarise the reader with the concept of EMH, covering the fundamentals and relevant literature. We then discuss market efficiency tests for Weak Form Market Efficiency, examining in more detail the day-of-the-week effect and its significance on stock market efficiency. The day-of-the-week effect is defined as a pattern where a certain day of the week has abnormal returns continuously. It is an anomaly that violates the random walk hypothesis, and thus implies that a market is not Weak Form efficient.We put theory into practice through the Empirical Research section which is divided into two parts, looking at two different approaches to researching the day-of-the-week effect, via the examination of actual research examples on a small European stock exchange. Both of these Thesis tested the hypothesis of random walk to determine the authenticity of weak form market efficiency for a small emerging stock market within the EU (the Cyprus Stock Exchange).

Welcome to the 1st edition of Market Efficiency: Day of the Week effect. This book aims to introduce Weak Form Efficiency via a specific anomaly, the Day of the Week effect. We cover the fundamental theory of the topic in question in a clear and concise manner. It covers the basic fundamentals of capital markets, the setting of stock prices in stock exchanges, random walk theory, and moves on to the concept of market efficiency and the Efficient Market Hypothesis. Lastly we look at market efficiency tests and make further discussion on weak form efficiency tests.Our series of Books for Business Students are concise and targeted to maximizing your

Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,3, University of Edinburgh, language: English, abstract: While using standard tests of weak form market efficiency along with the more recent DELAY test, this report examines if the returns of six selected stocks and two decile indices follow a random walk which would evidence the non-predictability of future stock returns by historical prices which is a necessary condition for the weakest form of market efficiency. The evidence of four different measurement tests suggests that except of one stock all stocks and indices drift away from the weak form market efficiency hypothesis.

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1.7, The FOM University of Applied Sciences, Hamburg, language: English, abstract: Especially after the 90ies, where the stock markets raised enormously, many private investors joined the stock market and were blended by abnormal profits and neglected possible losses. The same behavior could be observed before the Financial Crisis became reality. But each endless raising stock market would finally collapse, because stock prices are randomly and only driven by relevant news. The adjustment to the news is quickly. This is the theoretical argumentation of the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), which will be evaluated in this paper. The author gives an overview about the EMH by explaining the basic principles and its mathematical formulation. The practical part evaluated the EMH on selected examples, where the theory could only be partly approved.

Stock market efficiency is and important parameter to gauge the efficiency of a financial system. It assumes extreme importance especially in developing countries like India. The efficiency of Indian stock markets, especially the leading stock exchange of India - the NSE, attracts the attention of researchers and analysts in view of recent fluctuations in investments levels and the global financial turmoil. The efficiency tests conducted by the researchers so far have produced contradictory results and it is precisely difficult to comment on Indian stock market efficiency with definitiveness.We found it interesting to examine the impact of various macro economic factors both on Indian and global front on Indian stock markets in relation to the rate and manner of incorporation of information, which is the concern of every economic participant in recent times. This paper therefore, attempts to seek evidence for the weak form efficient market hypothesis using the daily data for stock indices of the National Stock Exchange for the period of 1 January 2000 to 31 Oct 2008. We use Kolmogrov -Smirnov, Unit Root and run test to test weak-form efficiency.

Econometric Analysis of Weak Form of Market Efficiency This book "Econometric Analysis of Weak Form of Market Efficiency" is an outcome of doctoral research work carried out on a large amount of stock market data using MATLAB software. It is a unique study wherein a battery of econometric tests has been applied to test the Indian stock market's weak form efficiency. This book consists of 6 chapters describing the concepts of market efficiency, econometric analysis and outcomes of the study. Each chapter deals with complex mathematical terminology in lucid and simple language for better understanding. This books aims at providing advance knowledge to the researches for application of econometric techniques to ascertain market efficiency. However, at the same time it is useful as a practical guide to the graduate / post graduate students of management, economics, and securities markets and engineering for carrying out desk research using MATLAB handling large amount of secondary data. The research outcomes are expected to be guiding force to investors, academicians, researchers in many ways wherein this work can further be extended.

Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,0, University of Hull, course: Current Issues Financial Management, language: English, abstract: The study examines and critical reviews the literature for the different implications based on the three levels of the Efficient Market Hypothesis for investors and company managers. If the weak form of the EMH holds, the technical analyse is useless, but ninety percent of traders in London are using it. If the semi-strong-form holds the fundamental analysis, study of published accounts, search for undervalued companies are useless and investors should be focus on diversification and avoiding of transaction costs. Furthermore the semi-strong form would imply for managers, that accounting disclosure to deceived shareholders is useless, the company market value is the best indicator for the company value and management decisions, the company does not need specialists for the timing of issues and there are no opportunities for a cheap acquisition of another company. At least if the strong-form of the EMH holds, it would imply that even with insider information it would not be possible to get above average returns. The literature shows, that the studies of EMH have made an important contribution to our understanding of the security market. It also shows that in some cases scientific results do not strong influence the behaviour of manager and investors in the “real world”.
