• Random Walk - stock prices are random• Actually submartingale
• Expected price is positive over time• Positive trend and random about the trend

Types of Stock Analysis
• Technical Analysis - using prices and volume information to predict future prices• Weak form efficiency & technical analysis
• Fundamental Analysis - using economic and accounting information to predict stock prices• Semi strong form efficiency & fundamental analysis

2. Returns are adjusted to determine if they are abnormalMarket Model approach
a. Rt = at + btRmt + et
(Expected Return)
b. Excess Return = (Actual - Expected)
et = Actual - (at + btRmt)

Tests of Weak Form
• Returns over short horizons• Very short time horizons small magnitude
of positive trends• 3-12 month some evidence of positive
momentum
• Returns over long horizons – pronounced negative correlation
• Evidence on Reversals
