emerging market, long memory, persistence and market efficiencyAbstract
The present study examines the long memory in stock liquidity and returns in Indian equity market by using data for broad indices from January, 1997 to December, 2019 by applying the hurst exponent (1951) rescaled range analysis. It is observed that time varying degree of persistence nature in individual and full series analysis of returns. Moreover, liquidity series exhibit long memory process in Nifty-100, Nifty-200 and Nifty MidCap-50. Findings are consistent with Sadique and Silvapulle (2001), Henry (2002), Cavalcante (2002) and Baum, Barkoulas ans Caglayan (1999).References
