Scope for Future Research Further study can be done by comparing developed stock markets with emerging and developing stock markets across countries investigating the differences in the usage of technical and fundamental analysis among different players in the stock market like mutual fund managers, brokers, investment bankers, financial news reporters financial analysts etc Appendices
