The impact of NYSE market index growth on investors’ trading volume.
Wee Win Yeoh1.
Investors’ behaviour tends to be affected by various factors, including the shift in the market index growth. Thus far, there is no concrete evidence that support the association between market index growth and trading volume growth. This study therefore tested the relationship between these two variables in a longitudinal study involving market data that covers a period of 20 years. The existing literatures have provided support that a significant, positive association exists between market index growth and trading volume in the NYSE market. The result, however, does not support this notion. Instead, the relationship between market index growth and trading volume was found to be significantly negative.
