Abstract

This paper investigates the informational variables impact on stock liquidity in the French market. We use two types of informational variables: Google search volume from Google Trends database as a proxy of information demand and news headlines for each stock as a proxy for information supply. Concerning the liquidity proxies, we use these measures: the quoted spread, the turnover price impact and the Amihud illiquidity ratio. The results indicate that information variables have an influence on stock liquidity.
