Book excerpt: In this study we attempt to test if there is a size effect in Indian stock market. The data comprises of top 482 Indian companies for the period 1990-2003. We find a strong size premium using six alternative measures of company size viz. Market capitalization, Enterprise Value, Net Fixed Assets, Net Annual sales, Total Assets and Net Working Capital. Further the size based investment strategy seems to be economically feasible as it provides extra normal returns on risk adjusted basis. Frequent re balancing of size based portfoilo is however found to be undesirable. The size effect does not seem to be owing to any seasonality or business cycle factors. The study has strong implications for mutual funds managers, investment analysts as well as small investors who are continuously on lookout for trading strategies that beat the market. The presence of a strong size premium also raises doubts about the informational efficiency of Indian equity market.

Book excerpt: Size effect has been extensively documented for most of the world capital markets including India. In this paper we examine the causes of the size effect in Indian stock market. We test whether operating, financial and liquidity characteristics substantially differentiate small firms from large firms. We also verify whether small firms are inherently riskier than large firms as implied by the risk story argument. We find statistically significant difference between small and large firms with regard to operating efficiency, financial leverage, stock liquidity, institutional neglect and distress level. The empirical results also highlight the overlapping of size and value (BE/ME) effects unlike in US market where they are found to be independent risk factors. The support for risk story provides an argument in favor of multi-factor benchmarks as compared to CAPM which fails to explain fully the cross sectional variations in average returns of size sorted portfolios as shown by previous empirical work. The findings have implications for mutual funds managers and other investment strategists as a major part of the size premium, which they perceive as arbitrage opportunity, could actually be a compensation for unaccounted risk.

Today, his firm manages U.S. equities for individual and institutional investors and provides investment software and investment data to all types of investors. Now, with his new book, he shows you what it takes to build a quant process to outperform an index based on academically documented market inefficiencies and anomalies.

Book excerpt: The Size effect is one of the prominent anomalies which have been observed in the stock markets around the world. The present study attempts to find out if the portfolio of small stocks yields higher returns vis-a-vis the portfolio of large stocks and whether the size effect is present in the Indian stock market or not. The sample consists of the monthly returns of the stocks included in the S&P CNX 500 index from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2010. Equal weighted portfolios of thirty smallest and largest stocks were constructed for each year for the entire period of the study based on the criteria of total assets and market capitalization. Using correlation analysis, CNX Nifty Junior was finalized as the market proxy, and the market model was applied by using the variables of excess returns on the portfolio of the stocks and the returns on the market proxy. The results indicate that the returns on the portfolio of small stocks are not significantly different from the returns on the portfolio of large stocks. Therefore, based on the results, the study concludes that the size effect is not present in the Indian stock market.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper evaluates the return generating process for the Indian stock market implied by general multi-factor model and the Fama-French three-factor model in specific. It tests systematically and robustly, using a large sample data pooled from wide range of companies and periods, the relevance of Fama-French three-factor model in explaining the cross sectional differences in returns in Indian stock market,. The empirical results show that the Indian equity market exhibits a strong size effect and value effect which are consistent with the findings of Fama and French (1996) for US portfolios and Sehgal (2003) for Indian stocks. Thus, it provides an evidence of the pervasiveness of the Fama-French three-factor model in explaining the cross sectional differences of stock returns. This study may provide a strong support for a broader and generalized asset pricing model having multiple risk factors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is one of the major emerging economies of the world and has witnessed tremendous economic growth over the last decades. The reforms in the financial sector were introduced to infuse energy and vibrancy into the process of economic growth. The Indian stock market now has the largest number of listed companies in the world. The phenomenal growth of the Indian equity market and its growing importance in the economy is indicated by the extent of market capitalization and the increasing integration of the Indian economy with the global economy. Various schools of thought explain the behaviour of stock returns. The Efficient Market Theory is the most important theory of the School of Neoclassical Finance based on rational expectation and no-trade argument. The book investigates the growth and efficiency of the Indian stock market in the theoretical framework of the Efficiency Market Hypothesis (EMH). The main objective of the present study is to examine the returns behaviour in the Indian equity market in the changed market environment. A detailed and rigorous analysis, made with the help of the sophisticated time series econometric models, is one of the key elements of this volume. The analysis empirically tests the random walk hypothesis and focuses on issues like nonlinear dynamics, structural breaks and long memory. It uses new and disaggregated data on recent reforms and changes in the market microstructure. The data on various indices including sectoral indices help in measuring the relative efficiency of the market and understanding how liquidity and market capitalization affect the efficiency of the market.

Book excerpt: The book presents a comprehensive view of the Indian equity markets over the past two decades (1994-2014). Equity markets constitute the most important segment of stock exchanges; in fact, the status of equity returns is, by and large, considered as a barometer of the state of a country’s economy. Returns earned by the equity investors on their funds invested in equity markets have become a decisive factor in the growth of such markets. In this context, the book discusses all the major aspects of equity returns and also conducts a dis-aggregative analysis based on underlying factors like age, size, ownership structure, industry affiliation/sector, among others, to explain the factors affecting returns and risk. While on the one hand the study ascertains the market rates of return (earned) on equities from the investors’ perspective (by including both the capital gains and the dividend income), it also shows how to compute the rates of returns on equities from the corporate perspective (that is, rate of return earned on equity funds). It further assesses the required/expected rate of return and examines the volatility in stock returns, with a focus on its behaviour during the period of the study. It deepens investors’ understanding of equity investment, helping them to make more-informed investments. While of interest to the investor community, this book also contributes significantly to the existing literature on market returns and is a valuable reference resource for academics, researchers and market participants, financial institutions and other intermediaries, regulators and policy makers.

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 Efficient Market Hypothesis believes that it is impossible for an investor to outperform the market because all available information is already built into stock prices. However, some anomalies could persist in stock markets while some other anomalies could appear, disappear and re-appear again without any warning. A Special Issue on "Efficiency and Anomalies in Stock Markets" will be devoted to advancements in the theoretical development of market efficiency and anomaly in the Stock Market, as well as applications in Stock Market efficiency and anomalies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior return effect - momentum and contrarian, is a well documented phenomenon in developed stock markets. This paper examines if there is any prior return effect in Indian stock market, an advanced emerging market in the world. We use daily price data available for stocks forming part of S&P CNX 500 equity index over a total period of five years beginning from July, 2006 to June, 2011.We find that in Indian stock market, security returns do exhibit predictable patterns following extreme daily price shocks. They exhibit a reversal in their direction during few days subsequent to an event of extreme rise insecurity's daily closing prices. Conversely, after experiencing an extreme decline in their daily closing prices, they continue to follow the downward journey recording lower prices on few days subsequent to the day of extreme price decline. Evidence from non-overlapping test period days also indicates overreaction for the winner portfolio and under reaction for the loser portfolio. These findings indicate that investors in the Indian Stock Market are overoptimistic. When re-pricing stocks in response to new information, their immediate reaction causes the stock prices to be above their adjusted expected values.

This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global integration, the widening and intensifying of links between high-income and developing countries has accelerated over the years. Over the past few years, the financial markets have become increasingly global. The Indian market has gained from foreign inflows through the investment of Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs). Following the implementation of reforms in the securities industry in the past few years, Indian stock markets have stood out in the world ranking. During the past few years India has emerged as one of the world’s fastest growing economies. The increasing interest of foreign players in the domestic broking industry is a testimony of the stock market’s growth. The Indian stock market has also received a thrust from rise in business transactions over the years, because of sharp drop in brokerage fees and transaction costs, launch of a slew of new products, and a robust regulatory environment. The importance of institutional investors’ particularly foreign investors is very much evident as one of the routine reasons offered by market analysts’ whenever the market rises, it is attributed to foreign investors' money and no wonder we see headlines like "FIIs Fuel Rally" etc., in the business press. This is not unusual with India alone as today’s most developed economies might have seen a similar trend in the past. Domestic institutional investors on the other hand being another important section of institutional investors are playing a vital role in the Indian stock market. These investors have emerged as important players in the Indian stock market and their activities are influencing the market. There are many instances where this section of investors has stabilized the market conditions on one hand whereas their moves took the market to destabilized position on the other hand. Therefore, both FIIs and DIIs have become the most important determinants in the functioning of the Indian stock market. Thus, increasing role of these institutional investors has brought both quantitative and qualitative developments in the stock market viz., expansion of securities business, increased depth and breadth of the market, and above all their dominant investment philosophy of emphasizing the fundamentals has rendered efficient pricing of the stocks. Hence, there is a need to examine how investments made by these two groups of institutional investors’ impact each other as well as stock market returns. This book is an attempt in that direction.

Book excerpt: The study evaluates the long-run reversal effect in stock returns for the Indian stock market over the sample period from January 1997 to March 2013. The empirical findings from the study provide support in favor of long-run return reversal effect wherein past long-run loser stocks outperform past long-run winner stocks over longer investment period, suggesting profitability of long-run contrarian strategy. However, unlike US stock market, no strong January anomaly was observed in long-run Indian contrarian profits. Further, using the multivariate risk approach, no statistical significant long-run contrarian profits were observed. The long-run reversal profits were driven by risk differential among past long-run winner and loser portfolios and can be explained by simultaneously controlling for beta, size, value, and liquidity risk in the Indian stock market. In nutshell, the long-run reversal anomaly is not robust under multifactor asset pricing framework and the excess profits from long-run loser portfolio are nothing but compensation for the risk held.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigates the working of the Indian stock market in recent years and attempts to look for functional instability, if any, embedded in the stock market. Specifically, it explores to discern whether there been any significant change in recent years in Indian stock market and the nature and characteristics of such changes, if any. It chooses the nine year period from 1999 to 2008. Over this period, stock market witnessed some major price changes: one in late 1999 that ended in mid 2001, another that commenced from mid 2004 and a recent one that in effect commenced from early 2008. There is significant volatility in the market with presence of risk premium;there is asymmetric impact. The market responds more to the negative shocks. The global stock market is having its influence on Indian stock market. The impact of developed country effect, particularly, that of US stock market has been the most prominent. There is some evidence for regional contagion. When we look at the domestic sectors, we see that the traditional sectors, -Capital Goods and Consumer Durables,are the two most predominant sectors. Other sectors, particularly the IT sector, have only a mild, almost insignificant impact on market volatility and transmits very little of its volatility to other sectors.
