What is in finance, what is the weekend effect?
The weekend effect is a model of performance in stock that has been observed since the age of 80. People watching stock markets have noted that securities tend to play most on Friday and have relatively weak revenues on Monday. There were a large number of speculation about the mechanisms for the weekend effect and several articles have been written that submitted different theories and explanations. Interruption of messages on weekends tends to attract less attention and companies hope that the main breaking item covers their bad news by Monday morning and ensures that it mixes on the back of the newspaper. This strategy can be effective for minimizing bad news awareness, but it can contribute to the weekend effect, because witness traders carefully follow the news on weekends, even on weekends. And they will respond quickly to bad news when the trade floor opens on Monday. On Friday, traders run high and can feel confident, increase trading volume and maintain revenues high. They sank on Monday morningFive to drop and maintained business and optimism low. "Monday case" is definitely not a psychological problem limited to stock traders.
In the United States, the weekend effect may be associated with the fact that the Ministry of Finance of the United States organizes its regular auctions on Monday. These can blow up the volume of trading. There were also suggestions that the effect could be caused by a short sale or after hours of business activities that have a chance of a snowball at the weekend.
Whether the cause is, the weekend effect is a recognized phenomenon and TOS has been carefully studied. This does not necessarily happen every week, and in fact, weeks or months may go through without a significant weekend effect, but it is remarkable that they will appear in discussions about how the stock markets and psychology of the people who work in this industry work. Graphs that show the weekend effect in action over the years can be found on some webpages and in the attachments of scientific articles that tried to throw this phenomenon.
