Bu bağlamda, pazarın verimliliğinindeğerlendirilmesi zayıf, orta ve güçlü seviyelerde ortaya koyulabilmektedir. Bu çalışma, TahranBorsasındaki kısa ve uzun dönemli da lgalanmaları en aktif 50 şirket örneğinden hareketle zayıfseviyede analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.

Economics of information has been developing increasingly in economics literature in recentdecades. Accordingly, the information plays a crucial role in efficiency of any market particularlycapital market which deals more with this issue. As for the importance of information in stockexchange efficiency, the market efficiency is studied under three data sets in three forms including:1 - Information concerning the past prices, 2- All the released information and, 3 - GeneralInformation and Confidential private information. Given these three types of information, marketefficiency is checked in three weak, semi-strong and strong levels, respectively. This paper inorder to examine the efficiency in the weak level employs a decomposed pattern with twostochas tic and random terms for Top Fifty most active companies (TSE -50) in Tehran stockexchange based on both long and short horizons. The findings demonstrate that the indicator doesnot have efficiency in long horizon. This is while; the efficiency is verifie d in short horizon.
