Abstract | Call auction has been widely adopted by large exchanges as trading mechanism. The suspension of closing Call Auction Session (CAS) of Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEx) in 2009 and its reintroduction of an enhanced CAS model in 2016 provides us a unique experimental environment to assess the effectiveness of the two different CAS models on reducing market manipulation behavior in the same stock exchange. Via examining the probability of Mandatory Call Events (MCEs) of Callable Bull/Bear Contracts (CBBCs), abnormal returns and volumes of CBBC underlying stocks around MCEs, we find that the enhanced CAS model is more effective in reducing price manipulation. Besides, our results suggest that the introduction of enhanced CAS model can also lead to reduced price manipulation in the Pre-opening Auction Session. |
