Reading 52: Organization and Functioning of Securities Markets

Which of the following is least likely a characteristic of a well-functioning market?

A)

Reliable information is available on price and volume.

B)

Prices change significantly from one transaction to the next.

C)

Prices adjust quickly when new information becomes available.



In a well-functioning market, prices should not typically change much from one transaction to the next because many buyers and sellers are willing to trade at prices near the current price. Characteristics of a well-functioning market include availability of reliable information on prices and transaction volume; liquidity (marketability and price continuity); prices that react quickly to new information; and low transactions costs.

In a well-functioning securities market:

A)
 participants have timely information on the prices and volumes of transactions.
B)
 portfolio managers assist clients with diversifying globally to reduce systematic risk.
C)
 major news announcements usually coincide.


The other statements are false. In an efficient market, portfolio managers assist clients with diversifying globally to reduce unsystematic risk. Systematic risk is not diversifiable. One assumption of efficient markets is that the timing of a news announcement is independent of the timing of other news announcements.
