This thesis investigates the efficiency of some selected Arab stock markets namely: Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Morocco over the period from 2002 to 2018; To do so, "Run Test" and "Fixed- and Random-effects models of Panel data" are employed respectively to test the weak-form and the semi-strong form efficient market hypothesis. The findings showed that Arab stock markets under study are efficient in weak-form, and inefficient in semi-strong form.enTechnical and Fundamental analysis, Efficient market hypothesis, Arab stock markets, The “Run Test”, "Fixed- and Random-effects models of Panel data".THE EFFICIENCY OF ARAB STOCK MARKETS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY FROM 2002 TO 2018Thesis
