Abstract: Security markets in major industrial countries have frequently been referred to as close to perfect markets. Probably the highest quality market for a class of securities is the United States government bill market; however, it is also frequently inferred that the United States listed equity market is also a near perfect market. In a perfect market, no opportunities for profit based upon past price movements or any other past data should exist; stocks in a perfect market are always at their proper price except for purely random fluctuations.
