Group of answer choices a)If the market is strong-form efficient, investors can not earn abnormal returns using inside information. b) If the investment in small firms earns a positive abnormal return, the stock market is not semi-strong form efficient. c) If a market is efficient, investors tend to follow a passive investment strategy. d) If the future stock price change depends on its history, the market is not weak-form efficient. e) If a market is weak-form efficient, fundamental analysis can not earn a positive abnormal return.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is inconsistent or unrelated with the efficient market hypothesis? a. Changes in stock prices are impossible to predict from public information. b. Asset prices reflect all publicly available information about the value of the assets. c. Stock prices follow a random walk, so stock price movements should be impossible to predict. d. The stock market moves based on the changing animal spirits of investors. e. The stock market is informationally efficient. f. It is impossible to systematically beat the marketarrow_forward
- The efficient markets hypothesis True or False: The efficient markets hypothesis holds only if all investors are rational. False True Almost all financial theory and decision models assume that the financial markets are efficient. The informational efficiency of financial markets determines the ability of investors to “beat” the market and earn excess (or abnormal) returns on their investments. If the markets are efficient, they will react rapidly as new relevant information becomes available. Financial theorists have identified three levels of informational efficiency that reflect what information is incorporated in stock prices. Identify the form of capital market efficiency under the efficient market hypothesis described in the following statement: Current market prices reflect all information contained in past price movements. This statement is consistent with: Strong form efficiency Semistrong form efficiency Weak form efficiency…arrow_forwardWhich one of the following statements is true? Market crashes tend to be accompanied by low market volume. The Asian market crash was followed by a quick recovery. The market crashes of 1929 and 1987 are very similar in both the percentage decline in market value and in the ensuing market recovery. Market crashes tend to follow market bubbles. Market bubbles and crashes prove that financial markets are inefficient.arrow_forwardWhy are the following “issues” considered efficient market anomalies? Are there rational explanations for any of these effects within the efficient market framework? Please explain your thinking and support with appropriate academic evidence.

- Due to an unexpected pandemic, the uncertainty levels have gone up tremendously in the financial markets. Among other things, this increased uncertainty would cause the market value ratios to increase. Group of answer choices True Falsearrow_forwardWhat is a "Bubble?" Does a bubble in the Stock Market mean that the Market is not efficient?arrow_forwardWhat is weak-form EMH? What would you expect to see/not see if markets where weak form efficient? In other words, can you think of market events that would serve as evidence that market is or isn’t weak-form efficient?arrow_forward
- (a) The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is a theory that explores the relationship between the availability of information and asset prices. It argues that all available information is already reflected in the price of share and therefore, it is impossible to beat the market over the long-term. Briefly explain the sub-hypotheses in EMH.arrow_forwardApplying the capital asset pricing model requires that one find appropriate inputs for the risk-free rate, the market rate of return (and market risk premium), and beta. Why is beta, in particular, difficult to pin down? a. People don't have ready access to financial data and won't have any source for this information in the near future. b. The major internet sources of financial data are notoriously unreliable. c. Hackers have been known to manipulate financial data for their own purposes. d. People must rely on historical performance information, and they have to assume that historical relationships continue into the future.arrow_forwardThe weak form of the efficient market hypothesis implies that: CHOOSE ONE A. Investors can achieve abnormal returns, on average, using technical analysis, after adjusting for transaction costs and taxes. B. Insiders, such as specialists and corporate board members, cannot achieve abnormal returns on average. C. No one can achieve abnormal returns using market information. D.
