Abstract

This note investigates the behaviour of small and large traders on different days of the week in the Finnish stock market. The results suggest that small traders increase their sell orders after the weekend. This suggests that the selling pressure of small individual investors in the beginning of the trading week is at least a partial explanation of the weekend effect in Finland.
