Abstract
This paper investigates the order choice behavior of foreign investors in the Korean stock market from January 1997 to August 2009, and compares the results with those of experimental market research of Bloomfield et al. (2005). Foreign investors submit morelimit (market) orders when the value of private information is high (low), like liquidity traders, from January 1997 to December 2005. On the contrary, from January 2006 to August 2009, they use more market (limit) orders when the value of private information is high (low). These results suggest that foreign investors behave as liquidity traders on average since most of them are institutional investors, but they may switch their order choice behavior of liquidity traders to those of informed traders when they have informational advantages.
