Abstract/Summary

This paper tested the significant presence of Turn-of-the-Month Effect (TOM) using the returns of the Philippine Stock Composite Index (PSEi) and the Financial (FIN), Industrial (IND), Property (PRO) and Mining & Oil (M-O) sector indices analyzed cumulatively each month across the years 2000-2007. An examination of the results uncovered the presence for the said monthly effect, which strongly holds in the Industrial Sector and the reverse for Mining & Oil. Further examination accounted for the pre-specified special events, with empirical results indicating a strong influence on PSE Composite, FIN and IND indices.
