We examine the linkages between dark and lit venues using a proprietary data set. We find that algorithmic trades for less liquid stocks are correlated with higher spreads and price impact, as well as contemporaneous trading on the lit venues. Also, signed trades for these stocks predict future...

Much research has examined performance or market efficiency by using the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) technical analysis tool. However, most tests fail to verify efficiency with the traditional parameter settings of 12, 26, and 9 days. This study confirms that applying the...

In their seminal paper French and Roll (1986) postulate that public information affects prices before anyone can trade on it. In contrast, several models assuming heterogeneous investors show that public news releases are directly followed by high trading volume. Empirical evidence on this...

Since implicit contracts are unobservable, we adopt a narrative approach to demonstrate that the Coca-Cola Company left a written evidence of the implicit contract with...
