A)The market capitalization is lower in foreign markets.
B)There are government restrictions on the amount of equity that institutions can hold.
C)The price impact of trades in foreign markets is usually higher.
D)
The turnover of foreign stock markets is higher due to price manipulation.

Although there is a higher frequency of price manipulation in foreign markets, this does not directly impact turnover. Smaller market capitalizations in these markets, government restrictions on institutional ownership, and the higher price impact from trading does limit the liquidity in these markets.
