Still, they occur a combination both Friday and Monday negative return was more than combination both Friday and Monday positive return. There are both combinations (Friday and Monday), and price fluctuation has not affected Monday's volume. There is also no difference in characteristics between groups: Friday and Monday negative return and Friday and Monday positive return. Thus, Friday-Monday dances with harmony; the efficient market occurs.
