Stock recommendations and stock market effects

Year 2020, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 33 - 39, 30.06.2020

Abstract

The aim of this study is to detect whether investors can earn abnormal returns based on market makers’ recommendations in Borsa Istanbul. To test the existence of market maker effect, buy recommendations mentioned by Ak Investment Inc. and stock returns traded on Borsa Istanbul are used. The event study was conducted for combined, pre- and post-event days covering the periods from January 2019 to April 2020. To enhance and compare the results, stocks are divided into five sub-groups based on the sectors they are traded in. The results indicate that stock recommendations do not provide valuable information to investors in Borsa Istanbul. Hovewer, while stocks traded in financial institutions are affected from buy recommendations of the market makers, investment strategies based on these recommendations would not generate any abnormal returns to investors for the rest of the sectors.

Hisse senedi tavsiyeleri ve hisse senedi piyasası üzerine etkileri

Year 2020, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 33 - 39, 30.06.2020

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, yatırımcıların piyasa yapıcıların verdikleri hisse senedi tavsiyelerine dayanarak aşırı getiri elde edip etmediklerini araştırmaktır. Bu kapsamda, Ak Yatırım tarafından yapılan hisse senedi “Al” tavsiyeleri ve Borsa İstanbul’da işlem gören hisse senedi getirileri kullanılmıştır. Ocak 2019 ve Nisan 2020 dönemi için olay öncesi, olay sonrası ve tüm aralıklar kullanılarak olay çalışması yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçlarını genişletmek ve karşılaştırma yapabilmek için, hisse senetleri faaliyet gösterdikleri sektörlere göre beş alt gruba ayrılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları, Borsa İstanbul’da işlem gören hisse senetleri için yapılan tavsiyelerin hisse performanslarına önemli bir etkisinin olmadığını göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, mali kuruluşlar kapsamında işlem gören hisse senetleri piyasa yapıcıların tavsiyelerinden etkilenirken, diğer sektörlerde işlem gören hisse senetleri için yapılan tavsiyelerin yatırımcılara aşırı getiri sağlamadıkları gözlemlenmiştir.
