This paper follows this branch, analyzing the “weekend effect” on the return and volatility of the stock exchange index in Chile, Brasil, Mexico and Colombia. The research uses a GARCH-M model applied to the closing daily prices in order to isolate abnormal returns and volatilities related to the “weekend effect”. Furthermore, it makes a review of previous papers and its results.
