Does Benford’s law tell anything about anomalies in BSE BANKEX?
In this blog, the author explores the applicability of one of the famous statistical analogies put forward by Simon Newcomb over the monthly average index prices for BSE BANKEX between 2003 and 2018. The primary objective of this blog is to provide an idea to the community of researchers focusing on the Indian economy for applying Benford’s law to Indian equity markets in order to capture anomalies in asset prices for analysing artificial growth. In order to do so, an initial idea of applying cobweb model to trade transactions is proposed for gauging the market equilibrium.
