Book Volatility Effects of Institutional Trading in Foreign Stocks

Download or read book Volatility Effects of Institutional Trading in Foreign Stocks written by Chiraphol N. Chiyachantana and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the impact of institutional trades on volatility in international stocks across 43 countries. There is a temporary volatility spike during the trade execution period, merely reflecting the price impact costs faced by the institutions. Cross sectional regressions suggest that trade imbalances, enforcement of insider trading laws, stock prices, and an emerging market classification are positively associated with temporary volatility increases whereas the presence of market makers and better shareholders' rights dampen such increases. In the long term, institutional trades do not destabilize markets as the levels of volatility after their trades are almost identical to their pre-decision levels.

Book The Impact of Foreign Ownership on Stock Volatility in Indonesia

Download or read book The Impact of Foreign Ownership on Stock Volatility in Indonesia written by Jian-Xin Wang and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study documents a negative relationship between foreign ownership and future volatility of Indonesian stocks. This calming effect of foreign ownership is present before, during, and after the Asian financial crisis. It is independent of gross and net foreign trading and the stock's historical volatility. The effect increases with the level of foreign holdings. The findings are contrary to the volatility impact of institutional ownership in developed markets, and indicate the presence of different economic mechanisms leading to opposite volatility impact from foreign ownership and foreign trading.

Book Stock Return Volatility and Daily Equity Trading by Investor Groups in Korea

Download or read book Stock Return Volatility and Daily Equity Trading by Investor Groups in Korea written by Mehmet Umutlu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the short-run relationship between stock-return volatility and daily equity trading by several investor groups in the Korean Stock Exchange. We also investigate whether trade characteristics and trading styles can explain the potential distinct volatility effects of these investor groups. For large stocks, we find that whether a trade is a purchase or a sale and whether it is a contrarian or a momentum trade does not play a role in the relation between volatility and trading. It is the trading of informed institutional investors against non-informed individual investors that drives volatility and produces a negative volatility effect. We further show that net foreign trading has a non-decreasing impact on volatility. Our results are robust to alternative measures of volatility and obtained after controlling for a Monday effect, volatility persistency, total volume and lagged stock returns.

Book Investors  Trading Behaviour and Stock Market Volatility During Crisis Periods

Download or read book Investors Trading Behaviour and Stock Market Volatility During Crisis Periods written by Guglielmo Maria Caporale and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the impact of investors' buy and sell trades on Korean stock market volatility across two crisis events, the Asian crisis of 1997 and the 2008 global financial crash. We investigate the trading behaviour of domestic vs. foreign and institutional vs. individual investors. Our results suggest that the buy and sell trades have an asymmetric effect on volatility that depends on the type of investor trading and on the phase of the business cycle. Buy orders appear to be more informative than sell orders since they mostly lower volatility in the pre-crisis periods, while sell and post-crisis buy trades affect volatility positively regardless of who trades (institutional or individual investors) and on what information (member, non-member). Most importantly, decomposing total buy and sell trades into trader-type categories reveals that some institutional investors are more informed traders that stabilize the market compared to individuals that always increase volatility. Foreign investors reduce volatility with their purchases and total trading activity in the whole Asian crisis sample, but only in the pre-crisis period before the recent global financial turmoil.

Book Stock return Volatility and Intraday Equity Trading by Investor Typesin Thailand

Download or read book Stock return Volatility and Intraday Equity Trading by Investor Typesin Thailand written by Anucha Ratanaparadorn and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I examine the intraday stock-return volatility pattern and relationship between the volatility and intraday trading by individual, institutional, foreign and proprietary investors in the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The volatility pattern of SET100 during January 2010 through December 20161 follows the L-shape in the morning and muted U-shape the afternoon session which is consistent with findings from many stock markets around the world. For large-size stocks, the net purchase of informed (institutional and foreign) investors with the net sale of less-informed (individual) investor drive the positive volatility effect. This result is always significant; however, cannot be explained by information-based explanation but rather more aligned with liquidity-driven explanation. For small stocks, the net proprietary trading has an increasing impact on volatility, which is consistent with liquidity pressure explanation. This result is significant and robust to different size of the portfolio and different measure of the volatility after controlling for lagged volatilities, number of trades, average trade size, opening, closing and Monday effect.

Book Who is a Winner in Volatile Markets  Evidence from Chinese Funds

Download or read book Who is a Winner in Volatile Markets Evidence from Chinese Funds written by Yi Yao and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proliferation of institutions has drawn an attention in the financial economists' interest on the effect of institutional trading on market volatility for a few decades. Existing research on institutional investors, however, has not considered separating a bull market from a bear market, an important macroeconomic factor, in studying the role of institutional trading in market volatility. In addition, few studies have focused on emerging markets in developing countries. Particularly, who can identify the change in macroeconomic fundamentals, make more rational decisions, and eventually dominate the Chinese emerging stock market, institutions or individuals? Addressing this gap, this study examines the impact of institutional trading on the Chinese emerging volatile markets, from bearish markets (2001-2003) to bullish markets (2004-2006), effectively integrating the institutional (de)stabilizing effect into a more completely developed perceptive. In particular, we investigate the relationship between the level of institutional ownership and a firm's abnormal returns on large market movement days. We find that institutions are able to make quicker and more rational adjustments in their trading strategies as compared to the delayed market reactions due to a change in macroeconomic trend and a supervising regulatory policy issued at the beginning of 2004. Institutions use different trading strategies from bearish markets (2001-2003) to bullish markets (2004-2006), on large market movement days, such as selling against a rising market in bearish markets while continually pushing the entire stock index up in bullish markets. Moreover, institutions successfully predict the tendency of future stock market although the Chinese stock market is more volatile than others. Meanwhile, we find that institutions buy (sell) less than individuals on large price swing days, consistent with the notion that institutions are more rational than individuals in emerging markets. Further, systematic risk in the Chinese stock market is twenty-four times than that in US, reflecting a significant difference between an emerging market and a developed market. Overall, these results indicate that institutions become a winner in the Chinese stock market.

Book Foreign Trading and Market Volatility in Indonesia

Download or read book Foreign Trading and Market Volatility in Indonesia written by Jian-Xin Wang and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides evidence on the benefits and potential risks associated with foreign equity investment. The market volatility in Indonesia is examined in relation to different types of transactions by foreign and local investors. Foreign selling has a significant impact on market volatility throughout the sample period, even though foreign investors are net buyers of Indonesian stocks and foreign selling accounts for only 13% of daily trading. On the other hand, transactions among foreign investors account for 26% of daily trading but do not affect local market volatility. The large orders placed by foreign institutional investors improve local market depth and liquidity. The results clearly demonstrate that different types of transactions have different impact on market volatility, and using aggregate foreign flows or net foreign flows may produce biased results.

Book International Capital Flows

Download or read book International Capital Flows written by Martin Feldstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent changes in technology, along with the opening up of many regions previously closed to investment, have led to explosive growth in the international movement of capital. Flows from foreign direct investment and debt and equity financing can bring countries substantial gains by augmenting local savings and by improving technology and incentives. Investing companies acquire market access, lower cost inputs, and opportunities for profitable introductions of production methods in the countries where they invest. But, as was underscored recently by the economic and financial crises in several Asian countries, capital flows can also bring risks. Although there is no simple explanation of the currency crisis in Asia, it is clear that fixed exchange rates and chronic deficits increased the likelihood of a breakdown. Similarly, during the 1970s, the United States and other industrial countries loaned OPEC surpluses to borrowers in Latin America. But when the U.S. Federal Reserve raised interest rates to control soaring inflation, the result was a widespread debt moratorium in Latin America as many countries throughout the region struggled to pay the high interest on their foreign loans. International Capital Flows contains recent work by eminent scholars and practitioners on the experience of capital flows to Latin America, Asia, and eastern Europe. These papers discuss the role of banks, equity markets, and foreign direct investment in international capital flows, and the risks that investors and others face with these transactions. By focusing on capital flows' productivity and determinants, and the policy issues they raise, this collection is a valuable resource for economists, policymakers, and financial market participants.

Book Geopolitical Risk on Stock Returns  Evidence from Inter Korea Geopolitics

Download or read book Geopolitical Risk on Stock Returns Evidence from Inter Korea Geopolitics written by Seungho Jung and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate how corporate stock returns respond to geopolitical risk in the case of South Korea, which has experienced large and unpredictable geopolitical swings that originate from North Korea. To do so, a monthly index of geopolitical risk from North Korea (the GPRNK index) is constructed using automated keyword searches in South Korean media. The GPRNK index, designed to capture both upside and downside risk, corroborates that geopolitical risk sharply increases with the occurrence of nuclear tests, missile launches, or military confrontations, and decreases significantly around the times of summit meetings or multilateral talks. Using firm-level data, we find that heightened geopolitical risk reduces stock returns, and that the reductions in stock returns are greater especially for large firms, firms with a higher share of domestic investors, and for firms with a higher ratio of fixed assets to total assets. These results suggest that international portfolio diversification and investment irreversibility are important channels through which geopolitical risk affects stock returns.

Book International Evidence on Institutional Trading Behavior and Price Impact

Download or read book International Evidence on Institutional Trading Behavior and Price Impact written by Chiraphol N. Chiyachantana and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study characterizes institutional trading in international stocks from 37 countries during 1997 to 1998 and 2001. We find that the underlying market condition is a major determinant of the price impact and, more importantly, of the asymmetry between price impacts of institutional buy and sell orders. In bullish markets, institutional purchases have a bigger price impact than sells; however, in the bearish markets, sells have a higher price impact. This differs from previous findings on price impact asymmetry. Our study further suggests that price impact varies depending on order characteristics, firm-specific factors, and cross-country differences.

Book Foreign Institutional Ownership and Liquidity

Download or read book Foreign Institutional Ownership and Liquidity written by Yordying Thanatawee and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the impact of foreign institutional ownership on stock liquidity in a sample of 950 firm-year observations from 190 listed companies in the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) over a period 2011 to 2015. Multiple regressions are used to examine relationships between foreign institutional ownership and liquidity measures. The two-stage least squares (2SLS) are also employed to ensure that the regression results are not susceptible to endogeneity problem. After controlling for price, return volatility, and firm size, the results indicate that equity ownership by foreign institutional investors has a negative impact on stock liquidity. The results are still robust even after controlling for endogeneity. The findings of this paper suggest that foreign institutional ownership may increase the degree of information asymmetry between foreign and local investors, and that foreign institutional investors adopt buy-and-hold strategy following their high ownership in local firms. Both the higher information asymmetry and the inactive trading activity reduce liquidity.
