This study investigated the relationship between share returns and nine variables that had been proven to influence returns in previous research, using a multiple regression analysis. These variables are size, leverage, book-to-market ratio, earnings yield, dividend payout, earnings growth, return on equity, earnings per share and asset growth. The impact of some of the variables on share returns proved to be insignificant, and some collinearity was identified between some of the variables. However, three significant variables were identified and the final regression model included the book-to-market ratio, dividend payout and leverage as the explanatory variables.

This study sought to analyze the impact of oil price fluctuations on the performance of the Saudi Stock Exchange by analyzing the impact of oil price fluctuations on the volume of trading, the market index and the prices of shares of listed companies in the market. The study used the inductive method to derive hypotheses, and the method of quantitative analysis to test the validity of these hypotheses. The study found that the fluctuations in oil prices do not explain the variation in the performance of the financial market (volume and market index) or the performance of companies listed in the Saudi Stock Exchange (stock prices). The study explained this result in the light of investor interest in other factors such as the financial performance of companies, the results of companies' business, dividends and others, and ignoring the impact of oil price fluctuations. The study recommended testing the relationship between the performance of the financial market and the factors influencing it such as dividends, market values ​​of stocks and other factors.

This research is conducted to investigate the impact levels of dividend policy on stock prices variation in the case of the stock exchange of an emerging country − Vietnam. Data were collected from 248 listed firms on the Vietnamese stock market for the period from 2014 to 2017. By employing ordinary least squares (OLS) and quantile regression (QR), we found that there is a negative relationship between dividend policy and variation of stock prices. Some variables including income variation, long term liabilities and growth have positive relationships with stock price variation whereas firm size has no impact on it. We also found that firms using low dividend yields influence stock prices variation in a clearer way. The results of this study are important for management in emerging countries, and in this case Vietnam, to have a proper dividend policy because dividend policy is crucial information for stakeholders to make economic decisions.
