Resumo: This paper contributes to the literature on testing the random walk hypothesis by examining a new data set for sector indices for the Brazilian equity market, and employing a joint variance ratio test with customized percentiles. The rejection of the random walk hypothesis has implications for both practitioners and academics as most asset pricing models assume this hypothesis and most practitioners search for patterns in asset’s price history (implicitly refuting the random walk hypothesis). Our paper suggests that we can price assets using this assumption, for the Brazilian equity market.

A rejeição da hipótese de passeio aleatório tem implicações para ambos os profissionais de mercado e acadêmicos, pois a maioria dos modelos de apreçamento de ativos assume esta hipótese e os profissionais buscam padrões na história de preços de ativos (implicitamente refutando a hipótese de passeio aleatório). O artigo sugere que se pode usar a hipótese de passeio aleatório para apreçar ativos no mercado acionário brasileiro.Universidade de São Paulo, FEA-RP/USP2006-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/90310.1590/S1413-80502006000200003Economia Aplicada; Vol. 10 No. 2 (2006); 193-201Economia Aplicada; Vol. 10 Núm. 2 (2006); 193-201Economia Aplicada; v. 10 n. 2 (2006); 193-2011980-53301413-8050reponame:Economia Aplicadainstname:Universidade de São Paulo (USP)instacron:USPenghttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/903/915Copyright (c) 2015 Economia Aplicadainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTabak, Benjamin MirandaStaub, Roberta Blass2012-04-24T15:08:40Zoai:revistas.usp.br:article/903Revistahttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoaPUBhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/oai||revecap@usp.br1980-53301413-8050opendoar:2023-09-13T12:16:48.510650Economia Aplicada - Universidade de São Paulo (USP)false
