Tiivistelmä: | The turn-of-the-year effect, the firm size effect, and the relation between these two effects are examined for a sample of OTC stocks traded via the NASDAQ reporting system over the period 1973-1985. The results are similar to those based solely on listed stocks. It is found that NASDAQ quoted bid-ask spreads are highly negatively correlated with firm size, are not highly seasonal, and are large enough to preclude trading profits based upon a knowledge of the seasonality of small firms' returns. |
