Abstract

This study examines the relationship between stock returns and trading volume for 10 deposit banks traded on Borsa İstanbul. A quantile regression is used to investigate the contemporaneous relationship between the variables, and Hatemi-J (2012) test is employed to investigate the asymmetric causality between the variables. Results show that, in most cases, the Noisy Traders Hypothesis is valid for bank stocks, meaning that investors’ buying and selling decisions about bank shares are based not on fundamental economic analysis or indicators, but rather on previous movements in the stock price.
