Purpose: This paper aims to examine the impact of price movements in 52-week highs on a 52-week high momentum strategy. This study refers to the upward or downward movement in 52- week highs as an updating effect and determines how this effect influences the profitability of the original 52-week...

This research examines whether Google search volume index (GSVI), a proxy of investor attention, can predict the excess returns and abnormal trading volumes of TPEx 50 index constituents. It also explores the motive underlying GSVI based on positive or negative shocks to stock prices. The...

Waste recycling needs efforts at the local levels. This paper computes waste recycling efficiency of twenty-nine sub-regions (including ten municipalities, seven towns, and twelve villages) from 2000 to 2004. Using Taipei County in Taiwan as a case study, we apply the data envelopment analysis...

Using the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) model, we estimate total-factor energy efficiency (TFEE) scores for 47 regions across Japan during 1996–2008. We extend the cross-sectional SFA model proposed by Zhou et al. (Applied Energy, 2012) to panel data models and add environmental...

This paper measures the metafrontier total-factor energy efficiency (TFEE) of 47 regions in Japan for the period 1996-2008, using the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA). The two-step output-oriented SFA approach by Huang et al. (J Prod Anal 42:241-254, 2014) is followed but converted into a...

Antitrust authorities consider commodity bundling as an extension of monopoly power to other markets which harms consumers. This paper analyzes quality competition and its effect on consumer surplus for the case of commodity bundling by a multi-product firm in a vertically differentiated...
