Information-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 ...
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 Spreads in Commodity Futures Markets
Issues of recent interest and controversy regarding bid-ask spreads in commodity futures markets are investigated. First we apply competing spread estimators to open outcry transactions data and compare resulting estimates to observed spreads. This enables market microstructure researchers, regulators, exchange officials, and traders the opportunity to evaluate the usefulness and accuracy of bi...
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 کاملThe Equilibrium Dynamics for an Endogeneous Bid-Ask Spread in Financial Markets
In this paper an endogeneous model for the dynamics of the bid-ask spread is derived in the setting of equilibrium ...nancial markets as described by Platen and Rebolledo (1996). An intermediary is hereby added to the original model. The market of Platen and Rebolledo is split into two di¤erent markets: one in which the intermediary is the demand side facing the supply of economic agents, with ...
