By utilizing the market-adjusted relative turnover to filter out the macroeconomic impacts, we construct "foreign investor sentiment index" in Taiwan and analyze how excess returns, volatility, and cash-futures market correlation are affected by this index. Our results show that foreign investor sentiment has a positive effect on excess returns and cash-futures market correlation, but has a negative impact on volatility. Moreover, both foreign investor sentiment index and net inward remittance of foreign investor (NIRFI) have a good prediction power in cash market's excess returns.
