This paper investigates the dynamic relationship between index returns, return volatility, and trading volume for eight Asian markets and the US. We find crossborder spillovers in returns to be nonexisting, spillovers in absolute returns between Asia and the US to be strong in both directions,...

In this thesis, I investigate diverse aspects of capital market efficiency in selected emerging markets. In chapter 2, the focus of analysis is on the role of trading volume and capitalisation in the process of information absorption by the stock prices. Empirical analysis is conducted for...

In this paper, returns and volatility spillovers between emerging capital markets of Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, and South-East Asia are investigated. We extend the existing empirical evidence on financial spillovers by distinguishing between linkages among countries located in...

In this paper, we investigated changes in the linkages between capital markets by applying the threshold vector autoregressive (TVAR) models to the stock returns of the US and of four East-South Asian markets. We employed the estimating and testing procedures proposed by Tsay (1998) and Hansen...

Although social mood can motivate herding towards new industries, the extent to which regulators cater to social mood may affect that herding. We explore this issue in the context of the nascent cannabis industry by examining herding among the cannabis stocks listed in the US and Canada, where...

We use the largest cross-country sample of reported share transactions by corporate insiders to date to establish that insiders in the majority of European countries do not make statistically significant abnormal trading profits. This finding stands in contrast to the earlier evidence from the...

We analyze the autocorrelation structure of returns and volatility of stocks listed in the single auction system on the Warsaw Stock Exchange during the period January 1996 - October 2000. First, we find that size- and volume-related cross-autocorrelation in portfolio returns exists even after...

We test the relationship between the changes in trading volume and subsequent returns for stocks traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE). We find high volume stocks to experience strong price reversals and low volume stocks to experience weak price reversals and even continuations. Focusing on...
