Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present paper examines the causal relationship between trading volume and stock market returns using daily data of the S&P CNX NIFTY and Sensitivity index (SENSEX) for the period from April 1, 2002 to March 31, 2012. Using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, unit root tests and Granger causality test, the study shows that in SENSEX, the causality runs both ways, while in the case of S&P CNX NIFTY, causality runs one way. On the basis of the above findings, the participants in the stock markets, i.e., brokers, investors, regulators, policy makers, portfolio managers and academicians, can frame strategies to deal with market volatility.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the empirical relationship between return, volume and volatility dynamics of stock market by using data of the NIFTY index of NSE during the period from Jan 2007 to March 2014. The volatility in the Indian stock market exhibits characteristics similar to those found earlier in many of the major developed and emerging stock markets. It is shown that ARCH family models outperform the conventional OLS models. We find that, the TARCH model is better fit, when we compare the GARCH, EGARCH and TARCH models, on the basis of AIC and SC criteria. Causality from volatility to volume can be seen as some evidence that new information arrival might follow a sequential rather than a simultaneous process. Moreover, in the GARCH model, ARCH and GARCH effects remain significant, which highlights the inefficiency in the market. In addition, EGARCH and TARCH models indicate the presence of leverage effect and positive impact of volatility on returns. Finally, the findings of granger causality test records the evidence of one way causality from volatility to trading volume and from return to volume.

Book excerpt: This project intends to study the relationship between stock returns and their trading volume and to test the causality effects. It focuses on the 50 stocks of CNX Nifty which is a value-weighted stock index of National Stock Exchange of India. Three proxies of trading volume namely, numbers of transactions, total traded quantity (volume) and total Rupee value of the traded quantity (turnover) have been taken and the asymmetry in the relationship of returns and volume is tested through regression. The study also tries to find the best proxy for volume through granger causality. The results indicate that there is asymmetry in the relation between returns and volume and the best proxy of the volume is the turnover or the value of shares traded.

Book excerpt: In this paper we have attempted to analyse the relation between stock returns and trading volume, using daily data of some Indian IT sector stocks. We have checked for both, the contemporaneous and causal relationship between stock returns and trading volume. We found an asymmetric V-shaped contemporaneous relationship between returns and volume and a causal relationship between absolute returns and trading volume (Absolute return Granger causes volume). We also found that lagged volume as significant predictive power for current absolute return and vice-versa.

This book was released on 2013-03-27 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is an exploration of the Indian stock market, focusing on the possible presence of momentum trading. One thing, however, should be noted. While it is true that momentum trading, which tends to generate speculative bubbles, may result in a financial market crash, its nature in contrast might depend on the nature of the economy itself. The study, while exploring the presence and nature of momentum trading on the Indian stock market in recent years, seeks to relate it to significant structural breaks in the Indian or global economy. To be precise, it outlines a potential correlation between the instability in the stock market and the speculative trading on the market, exploring the question of whether it is human psychology that drives financial markets. In the process, the choice of a significant structural break has been obvious: the global financial meltdown of 2007-2008 – a crisis that has often been referred to as the worst ever since the crash of 1929. While analyzing the nature of momentum trading on the Indian stock market with regard to the financial crisis of 2007-08, the study takes into account two major representatives of the market, the BSE (Bombay Stock Index) and NSE (National Stock Index), for the period 2005 to 2012. This study seeks to answer a few important questions. First of all, it tries to unveil the underlying structure of the market. In doing so, it examines the following issues: (i) What was the latent structure of the Indian stock market leading up to the crisis of 2007-08? Does the structure offer insights into designing profitable trading strategies? (ii) Is it possible to construct a profitable portfolio on the Indian stock market? (iii) Is there any profitable trading strategy on the Indian stock market? While exploring these issues, the study delves deeper, breaking the whole period down into two sub-periods, before the crisis of 2008 and after the crisis. The purpose of this division is to determine whether there has been any discernible change in the market structure since the shock.

Book excerpt: The stock market encourages people to save by giving households money so they can invest another financial tool that fits their risk preferences and cash needs better (Agrawalla, 2006). A stock market that works well is important to the economy because it helps businesses get the money they need and shows how to run an economy well. Since 1991, when market-based economic reforms were put in place, the Indian stock market has had a bigger effect on how the country's resources are used (Shah and Thomas, 2003). In the last ten years, there have been a lot more trades on all 23 stock exchanges in the country. Since reforms were made, there have been big changes in how important different stock exchanges are in the market. People became very interested in the stock market because of this. In the past few years, it has become very important to study market indicators because the stock market is doing well and more and more people are interested in it.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this article is to investigate the volatility asymmetry, volatility-volume relationship by considering trading volume as a mixing variable, and the risk-return relationship in the Indian stock market. Daily data from January 2, 1997 to May 30, 2013 for S&P CNX Nifty are used for the empirical analysis. First, we employ GARCH, EGARCH and GJR-GARCH models to examine the volatility pattern in the stock market. Second, both contemporaneous and lagged trading volumes are augmented in the volatility model to empirically verify the validity of Mixture of Distribution Hypothesis (MDH) and Sequential Information Arrival Hypothesis (SIAH). The level of volatility persistence also compared. Finally, GARCH in mean extension has been tried to investigate whether the risk-return trade-off exist in the market. The findings show significant volatility asymmetry supporting the leverage effect; provide supports to MDH but the volatility shocks are found to be highly persistent even after incorporating trading volume. The study also finds evidence of no significant relationship between risk and return. The implication of the findings may be applicable to traders, speculator as well as the financial decision makers and practitioners as the trading volume reflects the information about market expectation.

Download or read book Examining Asymmetric Relationship Between India VIX Nifty 50 Returns and Trading Volume written by Arushi Gaur and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigated one of the vital issues on market microstructure, the relationship between volatility, stock returns and trading volume on Indian stock market for daily frequency from 2nd March 2009 to 31st July 2018. The investor's fear gauge measure of VIX was used as a volatility variable. The asymmetric impact of returns was estimated on volume and volatility changes. The MWALD granger test revealed that trading volume is undirectionally caused be negative returns and implied volatility VIX. Feedback relationship exists between positive returns, negative returns and VIX. Also positive and negative returns have a bi-directional causality. But the results of Toda-Yamamoto only capture the central values of dependent variable's distribution. Therefore we also estimate Quantile Regression models. The asymmetric significant relation of stock returns on changes of volatility and volume distribution was found and stronger at extreme ends of dependent variable's distribution. The study supports the behavioral justification for negative return-volatility contemporaneous relationship but not unconditionally. The evidence of volatility feedback and leverage hypothesis was also significant for lagged period. The contemporaneous negative relationship was found between volatility and volume changes highlighting that investors in India are risk-averse and informed. But the positive lagged effect of changes in volatility on trading volume supports SAIH and affirms the fact that when information gets assimilated with time, noise traders entre the market and increase liquidity. Thus their presence increases trading volume with increase in VIX level.

Download or read book Revisiting Volume Volatility Relationship written by Pradeep K Mavuluri and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Positive relationship between trade volume and return volatility is a well-known empirical verified regularity in the financial research. Several studies examined what causes to volume-volatility to evolve and numerous theoretical explanations have been developed to predict/explore this relationship (see Karpoff (1987) and Board et al (1990) for a number of reasons why price-volume affiliation is positive). However, the recent literature provides evidence of revisiting the volume-volatility relationship as volatility and transaction counts relationship. So far no study examines the role of transactions frequency over and above volume in explaining the volatility; hence, the present study attempts to uncover the relevance of transaction counts for Indian stock market. Specifically, the study considers component stocks of Indian barometer indices, NSE Nifty and Nifty Junior, for the period 2005. In addition, study measures volatility by five minute intra day volatility apart from traditional absolute and squared price changes. Volume is measured as average trade size. The basic hypotheses that the number of transactions drives the volatility rather than the volume has been examined by the cross-sectional averages of Nifty amp; Nifty Junior stocks after running time series regressions.
