  • Empirical Testing of Month of the Year Effect on Selected Commercial Banks and Services Sector Companies Listed on Bahrain Bourse
    International Journal of Economics and Financial Issues ISSN: 2146-4138 available at http: www.econjournals.com International Journal of Economics and Financial Issues, 2017, 7(2), 426-436. Empirical Testing of Month of the Year Effect on Selected Commercial Banks and Services Sector Companies Listed on Bahrain Bourse Iqbal Thonse Hawaldar1*, B. Shakila2, Prakash Pinto3 1College of Business Administration, Kingdom University, Kingdom of Bahrain, 2Department of Business Administration, St. Joseph Engineering College, Vamanjoor, Mangalore, Karnataka, India, 3Department of Business Administration, St. Joseph Engineering College, Vamanjoor, Mangalore, Karnataka, India. *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In financial literature we find numerous studies examining the presence of diverse types of calendar anomalies in different stock exchanges of the world. The current paper aims to investigate the month of the year effect in randomly selected ten companies from banking sector and service sector traded on the Bahrain Bourse for a period of 5 years commencing from 1st January 2010 to 31st December 2014. The empirical research was conducted using descriptive statistics and Kruskal–Wallis H-test. The findings of the study revealed that none of the companies selected for the study exhibited significant monthly returns for the study period except Bahrain Maritime and Mercantile International. The paper suggests that the absence of said calendar anomaly may be due to thin trading practiced in the Bahrain stock exchange. Keywords: Calendar Anomalies, Month of the Year Effect, Bahrain Stock Exchange, Descriptive Statistics and Kruskal–Wallis H-Test, Thin Trading JEL Classifications: G10, G14, G15 1. INTRODUCTION The Bahrain stock exchange was started in 1987 but officially commenced its operations in 1989.
