Comparison of Liquidity Measures and The Relationship Between Volatility of Liquidity and Stock Returns in Turkish Stock Market

Abstract

This paper aims to determine the relationship between stock returns and volatility of liquidity in Turkish Stock Market. It is also investigated whether various liquidity measures sort the stocks in the same way according to their liquidities. The data used in the study contains the closing prices, trading volumes and free floating of the stocks that are included in Borsa Istanbul 100 Index (BIST100) and covers the period from 28.02.2011 to 18.11.2014. Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (GARCH) and Autoregressive Moving Average models (ARMA) are used to perform empirical analysis. According to the results, it can not be determined the clear significant relationship between stock returns and volatility of liquidity. Results also show that while stock size and Amihud illiquidity criteria sort the stocks in the same way, stock return standard deviation criterion produces different ranking

Türkiye Hisse Senedi Piyasasında Likidite Ölçülerinin Karşılaştırılması ve Likidite Volatilitesi Hisse Senedi Getirisi Arasındaki İlişki

Abstract

Bu çalışma Türkiye Hisse Senedi piyasasında hisse senedi getirileri ile likidite volatilitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Ayrıca farklı likidite ölçülerinin hisse senetlerini likiditelerine göre aynı şekilde sıralayıp sıralamadıklarını da araştırmaktadır. Çalışmada 28.02.2011-18.11.2014 periyodunda Borsa İstanbul 100 (BİST100) endeksine giren hisse senetlerinin günlük kapanış, işlem hacmi ve fiili dolaşımdaki hisse senetleri verileri kullanılmıştır. Ampirik analizde Genelleştirilmiş Otoregresif Koşullu Değişen Varyanslılık (GARCH) ve Ardışık
Bağımlı Hareketli Ortalamalar (ARMA) modelleri kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonuçlarına göre hisse senedi getirileri ile likidite volatilitesi arasında açık bir anlamlı ilişki belirlenememiştir. Çalışma
sonuçları aynı zamanda hisse senedi büyüklüğü ve Amihud likidite yetersizliği kriterlerine göre hisse senetlerinin benzer şekilde sıralandığını, getiri standart sapması kriterine göre ise farklı bir sıralamanın üretildiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
