A matter of degree
Even if we can spot patterns, we need to have
returns that beat our transactions costs.

Event Studies
Event Studies are one type of test of the
semistrong form of market efficiency.
Recall, this form of the EMH implies that prices
should reflect all publicly available information.
Slide 21
Event Studies
Returns are adjusted to determine if they are
abnormal by taking into account what the rest of the
market did that day.
The Abnormal Return on a given stock for a
particular day can be calculated by subtracting the
markets return on the same day (RM) from the
actual return (R) on the stock for that day:
AR= R RM
The abnormal return can be calculated using the
Market Model approach:
AR= R ( + RM)

Earnings Surprises
Stock prices adjust slowly to earnings announcements.
Behavioralists claim that investors exhibit conservatism.
Size
Small cap stocks seem to outperform large cap stocks.

Empirical Challenges
Crashes
On October 19, 1987, the stock market dropped
between 20 and 25 percent on a Monday
following a weekend during which little surprising
news was released.
A drop of this magnitude for no apparent reason
is inconsistent with market efficiency.
Bubbles
Consider the tech stock bubble of the late 1990s.
