Speculative Efficiency and the Exchange Rate: Some Evidence since the Float

Author

Listed:
  • Tease, Warren J

Abstract

This paper considers whether the speculative efficiency hypothesis holds in the foreign exchange market since the floating of the Australian dollar in December 1983. For the postfloat period as a whole, the speculative efficiency hypothesis can be rejected in the thirty-day market, but not in the fifteen-day or ninety-day markets. Evidence of a structural change in the market in February 1985--the time of the first major depression--was also found. Copyright 1988 by The Economic Society of Australia.
