Abstract

ABSTRACTThrough the examination of one commodity contract, soybeans, and one financial contract, U.S. Treasury bonds, the authors test to determine (1) whether mean rates of return during trading times differ from mean rates of return during nontrading times; (2) whether mean returns during trading times and nontrading times differ by day of the week; (3) whether trading time returns differ significantly from previous nontrading time returns; and (4) the extent to which trading and previous nontrading returns are correlated. In addition, the authors empirically examine a possible explanation for the results obtained.
