Notes: Panel A presents the summary statistics of linear Granger-causality relationships (at the 5% level of statistical significance) among the weekly liquidity of all the firms included in S&P500 during the estimation period of 08/01/2012 to 29/12/2019. Panel B reports the industry-wise mean and industry-wise ranking of mean values for all the variables during the estimation period. Out, In, and In+Out variables are the average percentage of other industry groups in the system that are significantly Granger-caused by an industry group j, the average percentage of other industry groups in the system that significantly Granger-cause industry group j, and the summation of the two, respectively.%Dif In&Out is the percentage difference between In and Out calculated asOutInOut+In2. The ranks are assigned in descending order. The table is sorted by rank of In+out. All the measures are winsorised at the 5th and 95th percentile.
