| Abstract |
The Hypothesis theory of Market Efficiency (HEM) notes that a stock market is efficient when analysts and investors believe that the market security price is a good estimate of their theoretical or intrinsic price because it is properly valued. This document aims to contrast the series of monthly returns of the US market in the period 2000-2009, to observe their behavior and random validation HEM in its weak form. The data used for the monthly closing price of the stock indices S & P500 and S & P100 has 120 data. With a significance level of 1%, 5% and 10%, the Dickey-Fuller Test results allowed to check that the probability of error assumed by rejecting the null hypothesis is greater than 5% for both series, so we conclude that the series study are stationary and they follow a random walk during the period 2000-2009. |
