¡@¡@Treasury stock system allows listed companies to buy back their own shares in the open market. In general, when the company announced stock repurchase event, investors are optimistic about the prospects of the company. Therefore, the company's stock price usually rises. But will investors buy more stocks, leading to increased liquidity of stocks? This study combines with stock repurchase and liquidity to investigate the impact of stock repurchase on liquidity. Further events will be studied by different factors stratified, including firm size, stock price, industry, the purpose of stock repurchase, the proportion of execution, the holding ratio of insiders and institutional investors. By using three types of liquidity measures, the study is to observe the changes of liquidity of stocks in the different situations.
¡@¡@After conducting mean difference in pair-sample test, the empirical results indicate that the sample stocks in the stock repurchase announcement, the outcome supports liquidity increase hypothesis. In terms of the stratification factors, the smaller of the company size or lower stock price will help increase the liquidity of the stock in the market. Non-electronics sector, aims to buy back equity write-off shares can improve market liquidity. Higher or lower percentage of insider ownership shares in¡@companies will lead to the increase of stock liquidity. Higher holding shares proportion of institutional investor in companies will increase liquidity. The amount of execution ratio is of no factors, but the liquidity of the stock repurchase still supports the liquidity increase hypothesis.
