Abstract

Recent econometric procedures are employed in this paper to investigate the behavioural properties of Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) indices. Box-Jenkins estimation, irrespective of the index examined, produced different models with a high prediction performance, violating the EMH conditions. The unit-root test also confirmed these results since the return series for all indices did not exhibit unit root, and all processes were stationary.
