The study focuses on 11 stocks in banking sector from January 2012-December 2016 to tally 26,840 samples. The factors of this study are the return of these stocks, the return of SET, the market capitalization and P/E ratio of banking sector in the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The study classifies these stocks into 4 groups as following

The multiple linear regressions with Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) are used in analysis at the statistically significant level of 0.1.
