Efficient market hypothesis in emerging markets: Panel data evidence with multiple breaks and cross sectional dependence

The purpose of this paper is to re-examine whether mean reversion property hold for 15 emerging stock markets for the period 1985 to 2006. Utilizing a panel stationarity test that is able to account for multiple structural breaks and cross sectional dependence, we find that the emerging stock market...
