Expected Return and the Bid-Ask Spread
This paper empirically examines the relation between the expected stock return and the bid-ask spread. Using the same portfolio formation method as in Amihud and Mendelson (1986) but different test methodologies, we do not find any clear reliable relation between the CAPM risk-adjusted return and the relative bid-ask spread. Our empirical results are more consistent with the conclusions of Cons...
متن کاملBid-ask spread modelling, a perturbation approach
Our objective is to study liquidity risk, in particular the so-called “limit order books”, as a by-product of market uncertainties. “Limit order books” describe the existence of different sell and buy prices, which we explain by using different risk aversions of the agents. The risky assets follows a local volatility diffusion governed by a Brownian motion which is uncertain. We use the error t...
متن کاملDynamics of bid–ask spread return and volatility of the Chinese stock market
The bid–ask spread is taken as an important measure of the financial market liquidity. In this article, we study the dynamics of the spread return and the spread volatility of four liquid stocks in the Chinese stock market, including the memory effect and the multifractal nature. By investigating the autocorrelation function and the Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), we find that the spread ...
متن کاملBid-ask Spread and Order Size in the Foreign Exchange Market: An Empirical Investigation
This article empirically examines the relationship between order sizes and spreads in the foreign exchange market based on a FX dealer’s quotes. It is found that spreads are independent of order sizes in the inter-dealer market, but they are negatively correlated in the customer market. JEL classification: F31; G14
متن کاملInformation-Based Trading and the Bid-Ask Spread
We analyze the equilibrium spread when the transaction size of informed traders is elastic in the value of private information (α). We show that the pooling equilibrium is likely to be inefficient when trade size is sensitive to α and the inefficient equilibrium can occur before the market breaks down. The pooling equilibrium spread does not monotonically increase with α, although it increases ...
