This paper aims to analyze the dynamics of information asymmetry in market microstructure through the Easley et al. (2002)'s PIN framework in two segments. Firstly, we test to see if factors such as size, value and illiquidity can be used to explain PIN. Secondly, we extend beyond the...

This paper demonstrates the multilayer structure of information in financial markets. While only 3.59% of 8,190 stock/quarter pairs have single information layer, 75% have two to five layers and 18% have six to eight layers. We develop a clustering algorithm which determines the number of...
