By studying two well known hypotheses in economics, this paper illustrates how emergent properties can be shown in an agent-based artificial stock market. The two hypotheses considered are the efficient market hypothesis and the rational expectations hypothesis. We inquire whether the macrobehavior depicted by these two hypotheses is consistent with our understanding of the microbehavior. In th...

The efficient markets hypothesis asserts that the price of an asset reflects all of the information that can be obtained from past prices of the asset. A direct corollary of this hypothesis is that stock prices follow a random walk, and that any profits derived from timing the market are due entirely to chance. In the absence of any ability to predict the market, the most appropriate strategy—a...

This paper is a survey on the application of neural networks in forecasting stock market prices. With their ability to discover patterns in nonlinear and chaotic systems, neural networks offer the ability to predict market directions more accurately than current techniques. Common market analysis techniques such as technical analysis, fundamental analysis, and regression are discussed and compa...

The aim of this study is to examine the validity Fama's efficient market hypothesis for G7 countries. In context, effectiveness test on weak form was conducted with help non-stationary panel unit root tests within countries period 1990-2020. Firstly, cross section dependence examined CDlm test. As a result presence dependency, CADF and Hadri Kurozumi second generation tests, which take into acc...

The stock markets from Post Communist East-European Countries are still considered highly speculative. For this reason, the previously performed tests often infirmed the efficient market hypothesis. However, especially in the past years, different studies revealed an improvement in the level of efficiency. In this context, our paper has tested the predictability of returns based on past records...

in this research, performance of portfolios formed by use of grid strategy based on new variables (aggressive, indifference and defensive stocks) presented by rahnamaye roodposhti (1388), and traditional ones (growth, growth-value and value stocks), calculated with sharpe and treynor performance measures and tested by an active portfolio management approach to identify the portfolios by perform...
