This paper addresses the relevance of Hubris theory of mergers and acquisitions in the Indian context. We apply event study methodology to examine the short-term market response to merger announcements in the Indian banking and information technology industry.The overall findings report...

This paper applies the multi-scale beta estimation approach based on wavelet analysis to all stocks comprising BSE-Sensex. Betas are calculated based on the wavelet decomposition from the Maximal overlap discrete wavelet transform (DWT). It is shown that the multi-scale beta estimation approach...

Multi-scale representations are effective in characterising the time-frequency characteristics of financial return series. They have the capability to reveal the properties not evident with typical time domain analysis. Given the aforesaid, this study derives crucial insights from multi scale...

We use data set of five Asian countries to estimate the frequency and quantile based relationship between stock price index and exchange rate. We apply simple correlation and wavelet based correlation and in accordance with the portfolio balance effect, we find that the two variables are...

The purpose of the study is to empirically analyze the influence of the macroeconomic indicators on India's stock market performance. The macroeconomic variables considered are inflation, interest rate, money supply, industrial production, and exchange rates in India. The study covers the period...
