Book Description
The literature on asset market and market microstructure has devoted surprisingly little attention to trading volume. Many economic models of financial markets and market microstructure have been developed to explain the predictability of prices (returns), and information content of it. However, far less attention has been devoted to explain the behavior of trading volume. To fill this gap in the literature, this study tries to expand our understanding of trading volume for an emerging market by empirically estimating econometric models using recently available daily volume data for individual securities listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The analysis carried out serves several purposes: a) understand the motives for trade & the process by which trades are realized, b) the interaction between price and volume, and c) the roles that risk preferences and market frictions play in determining stock trading activity. Our empirical contributions include: (1) the construction of a volume based index for the Indian equity markets & comprehensive exploratory data analysis of the time-series behavior of trading volume; (2) modeling trading volume series using long-memory models and its forecasting performance; (3) estimation of dynamic price & volume relations using Markov Switching framework; and (4) a new approach for empirically identifying various factors determining the stock trading volume. The empirical result that stock trading volume is a long-memory process, does not affect market efficiency.

Book Description
The Efficient Market Hypothesis believes that it is impossible for an investor to outperform the market because all available information is already built into stock prices. However, some anomalies could persist in stock markets while some other anomalies could appear, disappear and re-appear again without any warning. A Special Issue on "Efficiency and Anomalies in Stock Markets" will be devoted to advancements in the theoretical development of market efficiency and anomaly in the Stock Market, as well as applications in Stock Market efficiency and anomalies.

Book Description
I use five separate measures of deviation from Put-Call Parity of options on a stock without splits or dividends as separate negative measures for market efficiency. I rely upon the theory of trading volume as a function of short sales costs, etc., and that of market efficiency as a function of trading volume, etc. derived by Bhattacharya (2019). I use Three-Stage Least Squares (3SLS) to estimate this structural system, separately for Nasdaq and non-Nasdaq U.S. stocks. I find, contrary to much previous theoretical and empirical work, that the impact of short sales costs & constraints on market efficiency is not significantly negative and that the impact of trading volume on market efficiency is not significantly positive, and my results are robust to various econometric specifications and financial economic assumptions.

Book Description
The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) asserts that, at all times, the price of a security reflects all available information about its fundamental value. The implication of the EMH for investors is that, to the extent that speculative trading is costly, speculation must be a loser's game. Hence, under the EMH, a passive strategy is bound eventually to beat a strategy that uses active management, where active management is characterized as trading that seeks to exploit mispriced assets relative to a risk-adjusted benchmark. The EMH has been refined over the past several decades to reflect the realism of the marketplace, including costly information, transactions costs, financing, agency costs, and other real-world frictions. The most recent expressions of the EMH thus allow a role for arbitrageurs in the market who may profit from their comparative advantages. These advantages may include specialized knowledge, lower trading costs, low management fees or agency costs, and a financing structure that allows the arbitrageur to undertake trades with long verification periods. The actions of these arbitrageurs cause liquid securities markets to be generally fairly efficient with respect to information, despite some notable anomalies.

Book Description
This manuscript is about the joint dynamics of stock returns and trading volume. It grew out of my attempt to construct an intertemporal asset pricing model with rational agents which can. explain the relation between volume, volatility and persistence of stock return documented in empirical literature. Most part of the manuscript is taken from my thesis. I wish to express my deep appreciation to Peter Kugler and Benedikt Poetscher, my advisors of the thesis, for their invaluable guidance and support. I wish to thank Gerhard Orosel and Gerhard Sorger for their encouraging and helpful discussions. Finally, my thanks go to George Tauchen who has been generous in giving me the benefit of his numerical and computational experience, in providing me with programs and in his encouragement.

Book Description
The main objective of this thesis is to show that additional insights, beyond the verdict of market efficiency/inefficiency, can be obtained from those existing statistical tests of the weak-form efficient markets hypothesis (EMH). As an introduction, Chapter 1 provides the background and outline of this thesis. Chapter 2 then surveys the relevant literature and discusses the motivations behind the development of the three key research questions addressed in Chapter 3 through 5, respectively. Chapter 3 examines the association between trade liberalization and the weak-form efficiency of stock market, motivated by the production-based asset pricing model of Basu and Morey [Trade opening and the behavior of emerging stock market prices, Journal of Economic Integration 20(1), 2005, 68-92]. Using data from 23 developing countries over the sample period of 1992-2006, we find that a greater level of de facto trade openness is associated with a higher degree of informational efficiency in these emerging stock markets, even after controlling for trading volume and market return volatility. Further analyses find no significant association between the extent of financial openness and the degree of informational efficiency. While Chapter 3 provides novel evidence on the association between trade openness and stock market efficiency, our empirical work can also be viewed as addressing the issue of whether the existing theoretical determinants (i.e. trading volume, return volatility, trade liberalization and financial openness) are capable of explaining the variations of index return autocorrelations across countries and over time. Chapter 4 employs the rolling bicorrelation test to measure the degree of nonlinear departures from a random walk for aggregate stock price indices of 50 countries over the common sample period of 1995-2005. We find that stock markets in economies with low per capita GDP in general experience more frequent price deviations than those in the high incom.
