Abstract:The paper explores studies of return predictability (hereafter as: ret-pred.) of stock indexes of blue-chip firms and high-technology firms in France, Germany, the U.K. during the second half of the 1990s. Ret-pred. was measured in terms of first-order auto-correlation coefficients. Evidence shows the ret-pred. of stock indexes of high-technology firms, but not of stock indexes of blue-chip firms. According to these findings, it is suggested that a candidate for explaining the economic sources of the ret-pred. of these stock indexes of high-technology firms is transaction costs etc.
