We find that trading volume not only contributes positively to the contemporaneous volatility, as indicated in previous literature, but also contributes negatively to the subsequent volatility. And this pattern between trading volume and volatility is consistently held among individual stocks, volume-based portfolios, size-based portfolios, and market index, and among daily data and weekly data. These empirical findings tend to support that the Information-Driven-Trade (IDT) hypothesis is more pervasive and powerful in explaining trading activities in the stock market than the Liquidity-Driven-Trade (LDT) hypothesis. Our additional tests obtain three interesting findings, 1) liquidity and the degree of information asymmetry influence the relation between volume and subsequent volatility, 2) the effect of volume on subsequent volatility and volume size have a non-linear relationship, which is consistent with Barclay and Warner (1993, JFE)'s finding, 3) the effect of volume on subsequent volatility is asymmetry when the stock price moves up and when the stock price moves down, and we attribute this asymmetry to the short-selling constraints.
