New Bid-Ask Spread Estimators from Daily High and Low Prices
Estimating trading costs in the absence of recorded data is a problem that continues to puzzle financial market researchers. We address this challenge by introducing two low frequency bid-ask spread estimators using daily high and low transaction prices. The range of mid-prices is an increasing function of the sampling interval, while the bid-ask spread and the relationship between trading dire...
متن کاملExpected 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 کاملSIMPLE NONPARAMETRIC ESTIMATORS FOR THE BID-ASK SPREAD IN THE ROLL MODEL By
We propose new methods for estimating the bid-ask spread from observed transaction prices alone. Our methods are based on the empirical characteristic function instead of the sample autocovariance function like the method of Roll (1984). As in Roll (1984), we have a closed form expression for the spread, but this is only based on a limited amount of the model-implied identification restrictions...
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 ...
