Abstract:
One of the risk factors of financial assets is liquidity. Identifying factors affecting liquidity helps us to predict stock liquidity and to control the risk of investing. The purpose of this research is to identify these factors in Tehran Stock Exchange. We use the data of 48 companies between1388 and 1392. Our results show that the liquidity follows a weekly and a monthly cycle. Stock return, market return, stock return volatility, market return volatility and trading volume are among the factors which affect stock liquidity. In addition, the reaction of liquidity changes to positive or negative stock return is asymmetric, and the effect of negative stock return is more influential. Our results also show that large negative stock shocks and market shocks influence liquidity changes more in comparison to positive shocks
