Noninformative and informative tests of efficiency in three energy futures markets
Article Abstract:
A critique of tests of market efficiency commonly applied to energy markets is presented. The tests are unable to deal adequately with the endogenecity, nonstationarity, and cointegration characteristics of spot and futures prices, resulting in tests that are not informative about market efficiency. Two alternative tests of efficiency that properly deal with the stochastic features of these prices series are also presented.
