Abstract

The debate covering stock return predictability is now shifted towards the investigation of changing patterns of return predictability as suggested by the adaptive market hypothesis (AMH). The present article inspects the varying return predictability pertaining to the equity market in Pakistan under AMH framework. A nonlinear autoregressive neural network (NARNN) model is employed to investigate the nonlinear dependency of returns over a period of eighteen years. NARNN is a robust and flexible technique that is free from any restrictive assumptions. Under a rolling window framework, the repeating patterns of predictability and unpredictability are observed. This finding confirms the idea of AMH.
