Abstract
Impact of major macroeconomic announcements on the daily trading volumes of several US ETFs is examined for the period of January 2004-April 2014. An ARIMA model with external factors that describe the announcement events is used. It is found that several macroeconomic announcements, particularly the ISM Manufacturing Reports, Non-Farm Payrolls, Housing Starts, and to a lesser extent, Jobless Claims, Leading Indicators, and CPI significantly increase daily trading volumes.
