摘要

This study aims to test empirically the ability of earnings and cash flows in predicting future earnings and cash flows and stock prices fluctuation pattern. The samples of the research are drawn by using purposive sampling from manufacturing companies listed in Indonesian Stock Exchange. The results of data analysis using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model show that four of five hypothesis are supported. It means that earnings are able to predict future earning and stock price fluctuation pattern, current stock prices can predict future earning price and the series of cash flows can predict future cash flows. However, the fifth hypothesis stated that cash flows can predict stock prices pattern cannot be proved.
