Abstract

Fama's Efficient Market Hypothesis (1970) posits that all valuable information is swiftly reflected in stock prices in mature markets. However, anomalies like momentum and reversal effects persist in China's A-share market. This study investigated the short-term reversal effect using turnover rates and institutional investor marginal funds. Significant reversals were found in high-turnover stocks due to speculative trading and deviations from intrinsic value. Institutional investors played a crucial role in correcting mispricing. The Institutional Holding Change Ratio (IHCR) demonstrated that institutional investors' marginal funds strongly explain the reversal anomaly and act as a style factor with positive returns. This research highlights the impact of institutional and individual investor behaviors on market efficiency and investment strategies.
