Abstract

The stock market in Iraq is considered one of the most important economic sectors in the Iraqi economy and is of great significance in the field of finance. Therefore, the analysis of market liquidity has become a subject of interest for researchers in terms of the importance of Iraq's market liquidity in providing a comprehensive understanding of the market's ability to offer an attractive investment environment. This research aims to provide a comprehensive and detailed insight into the performance of the Iraqi stock market during the studied period. It seeks to analyze the performance of the Iraqi stock market using liquidity indicators from 2005 to 2022 and identify the factors influencing the liquidity of the Iraqi stock market. This analysis utilizes liquidity indicators such as trading volume and stock turnover rate through an analytical approach. The findings indicate that there is volatility in the liquidity of the Iraqi stock market due to fluctuations in trading volume and stock turnover rate. Consequently, the market appears to be imbalanced and inconsistent in trading activity.
