The informational efficiency of the art market
Article Abstract:
Informational efficiency in the painting market is determined using two measures. One is a measure of market efficiency in terms of serial dependency in returns and the other is a measure of price risk or uncertainty regarding the resale value of a piece of artwork. With the use of historical data, a decline in price risk since the start of the painting market is noted. This suggests increasing informational efficiency due to the improved availability of auction information to art buyers and sellers.
