Abstract

This paper analyzes the behavior of Ibex35 from January 1999 to December 2001, in order to check if it follows a different process from random walk so its return is not a white noise and it can be predictable, against the efficient market hypothesis. For that, a nonlinear generating process of return will be considered and a STAR-APARCH model will be specified. This model allows a nonlinear behavior in the conditional mean and in the conditional variance. The empirical results show that the Ibex35 follows a nonlinear and asymmetric process, both in the conditional mean as in the conditional variance, so the weak-version of efficient market hypothesis is rejected. El trabajo analiza el comportamiento del Ibex35, durante el período que abarca desde enero de 1999 a diciembre de 2011, con el objetivo de comprobar si sigue un proceso diferente al paseo aleatorio, de tal forma que su rendimiento no se caracteriza por ser ruido blanco y resulta, en contra de lo que implica la hipótesis de los mercados eficientes, predecible. Para ello se va a tener en cuenta la posibilidad de que el proceso generador del rendimiento sea no lineal y se va a especificar un modelo STAR-APARCH, que permite un comportamiento no lineal, tanto de la media como de la varianza condicional. Los resultados empíricos evidencian que el comportamiento del Ibex35 sigue un proceso no lineal y asimétrico, tanto en la media como en la varianza condicional, rechazándose el cumplimiento de la versión débil de la hipótesis de los mercados eficientes.
