摘要
By comparing a balanced sample of firms before and after the introduction of ASIC's short selling ban, we find that stock market liquidity has decreased. Intra-day volatility and idiosyncratic intra-day volatility have also increased. Investors have also been negatively affected by a slowing in the price discovery process, increases in the cost of trading and less efficient trading.
