Solution

The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) suggests that all available information is already incorporated into the price of securities, and thus, it is impossible to consistently achieve higher than average returns through any strategy, including both active and passive.

a. The suggestion that either active or passive strategies may be appropriate, depending on the expected direction of the market. - This is not a suggestion of EMH. According to EMH, neither active nor passive strategies would consistently outperform the market because all information is already reflected in the prices.

b. The suggestion that stock prices are not random. - This is also not a suggestion of EMH. In fact, EMH suggests that stock prices are random and unpredictable.

c. The suggestion that technical analysis can be used to uncover trends and is quite useful. - This is not a suggestion of EMH. EMH suggests that technical analysis would not provide any advantage because all information is already reflected in the prices.

d. Only two of the suggestions above and/or below are suggestions of EMH - This is not correct. None of the above suggestions are consistent with EMH.

e. All three are NOT suggestions of EMH - This is the correct answer. None of the above statements are suggestions of the Efficient Market Hypothesis.

2. The Efficient Markets Hypothesis (EMH) as formalized by Eugene Fama in 1970 describes an efficient capital market as one that is efficient in processing information, so that the prices of securities observed at any time are based on an unbiased evaluation of all information available at that time. In other words, the market quickly and correctly adjusts to new information which is assumed to be unpredictable and random.  a. Eugene Fama categorizes EMH in terms of three forms of efficiency. Describe each form of efficiency and provide an example of a type of analysis or type of information that would refute each one(6 marks)  b. In empirical tests of the EMH over the years, a number of anomalies have been found that question the conclusion of market efficiency. In some cases, these anomalies were temporary, in other cases they were persistent. Even in the cases when the anomalies persisted, the problem may not have been with EMH. Explain why that might be the case and describe how the Fama-French model provides an explanation that could be considered consistent with EMH (6 marks)
