Abstract

Contrary to the efficient market hypothesis, previous research documents a significant correlation between lagged U.S. close‐to‐close stock market returns and current open‐to‐close Japanese equity market returns. We find that the significant correlation is limited to the first hour of Japanese trading, with subsequent hourly returns independent of lagged U.S. returns. This evidence suggests that the documented significant correlation is attributable to a sticky Japanese opening value associated with the use of nonsynchronous index data.
