Using an econometric procedure for detecting structural breaks in the series, we study the period January 2000–December 2013. Our results do not suggest any significant impact on variance, neither on price nor on trade volume.engTemporary ban on short positions and financial market volatility: evidence from the Madrid Stock Marketjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1080/13504851.2014.982850open accessG18C22C59Short-selling banStructural breaksGARCH model.Econometría (Economía)Mercados bursátiles y financieros5302 Econometría
