  • Abstract
    Through the comparison between the liquidity and volatility of the Shanghai Composite Index before and after launch of short selling, this paper draws a conclusion that the liquidity does not significantly increase after the introduction of short selling, but the volatility significantly decrease. In addition, the volatility model advanced by Hardouvelis and Theodosiou (2001) is used to study the day volatility. The results further confirm the above conclusion.
