Recently, there has been a considerable interest in the Bayesian approach for explaining investors' behaviorial biases by incorporating conservative and representative heuristics when making financial decisions, (see, for example, Barberis, Shleifer and Vishny (1998)). To establish a...

In this paper, we introduce a new pseudo-Bayesian model to incorporate the impact of a financial Crisis and establish some properties of stock returns and investors' behaviors during the financial crisis and during recovery after crisis. Our proposed model can be applied to investigate some...

This paper applies stochastic dominance (SD) tests to examine the dominance relationships between the futures and spot markets in Hong Kong. We also analyze the preferences for the risk averters, risk seekers, prospect investors, and Markowitz investors with further in dept of their positive and...

Barberis, Shleifer and Vishny (1998) and others have developed Bayesian models to explain investors' behavioral biases by using the conservatism heuristics and the representativeness heuristics in making decisions. To extend their work, Lam, Liu, and Wong (2010) have developed a model of weight...

This paper develops a model of weight assignments using a pseudo-Bayesian approach that reflects investors' behavioral biases. In this parsimonious model of investor sentiment, weights induced by investors' conservative and representative heuristics are assigned to observations of the earning...

In this paper, we introduce a new pseudo-Bayesian model to incorporate the impact of a financial crisis and establish some properties of stock returns and investors' behavior during a financial crisis and subsequent recovery. Our approach provides a quantitative description for investors'...

We develop some properties on the autocorrelation of the k-period returns for the general mean reversion (GMR) process in which the stationary component is not restricted to the AR(l) process but take the form of a general ARMA process. We then derive some properties of the GMR process and three...
