| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this project has been to empirically investigate the performance of Japanese securities markets in terms of the market liquidity and price discovery. I have examined informed traders' order submissions and found that they strategically place market and limit orders. I have also examined the effect of an increase in individual investor base on the efficiency of stock prices following minimum trading unit reductions.
