This paper attempts to capture the relationship between stock market movements and its endogenous liquidity measures using Autoregressive Distributed-lag (ARDL) Bounds Testing Approach. We consider depth, breadth, tightness, immediacy and resiliency dimensions of market liquidity using suitable...

A predictable pattern of stock market return is the violation of the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). It is well studied and evident in financial literature that stock markets around the world have predictable patterns, e.g. calendar effect, behavioural effect, and Religious festival effect....
