Title: Observing a New Anomaly in ISE With the Use of a Classifier System 

(Sınıflayici (Classifier) Sistem ile İMKB'de Yeni Bir Anomali Gözlemi)

Abstract: This study presents a new evidence for the well-founded assertion that Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE) is not efficient in weak form. A classifier system is used to calculate  expected return and risk at various levels of the ISE100 Index. It is observed that  the expected return from, and the confidence in, the market portfolio are higher at the low levels of the market index, independent of the length of the hold period. The same classifier system also helps to estimate the optimal  length of period to hold the market portfolio.
