Abstract: This paper adopted the data of A shares from 1994 to 2003 listed on Shanghai Securities Exchange to test and analyze the"book-to-market effect"based on annual yield.In order to eliminate the influence of financial reporting,this paper measured stocks’ annual yields from every June to the next May,and measured book-to-market ratios with the data at the last trading day of every May.The research shows:①The"book-to-market effect"exists on Shanghai Stock Market;②Book-to-market ratios can predict the expected returns on stocks because of the positive correlation between them;③The semistrong form efficiency in Shanghai Stock Market is untenable;④Investing on value stocks in Shanghai Stock Market can get abnormal returns.
