La revue de la littirature sur l'analyse multicrithre montre l'existence d'une panoplie de procidures d'agrigation multicrithre (PAMC) basies sur des hypothhses, des primisses et des perspectives ipistimologiques diffirentes. De plus, il est itabli que ces PAMC ne sont pas applicables a toutes...

This study sheds new light on the question of whether or not sentiment surveys, and the expectations derived from them, are relevant to forecasting economic growth and stock returns, and whether they contain information that is orthogonal to macroeconomic and financial data. I examine 16...

An evolutionary model of the product life cycle is applied to derive the experience curve and the market size of (expensive) durable goods. The experience (learning) curve suggests that the real costs per unit decrease with an increasing cumulative output (Henderson's law). Based on the idea...

The model presented here derives the product life cycle of durable goods. It is based on the idea that the purchase process consists of first purchase and repurchase. First purchase is determined by the market penetration process (diffusion process), while repurchase is the sum of replacement...

Presented is an evolutionary model of consumer non-durable markets, which is an extension of a previously published paper on consumer durables. The model suggests that the repurchase process is governed by preferential growth. Applying statistical methods it can be shown that in a competitive...

As the structure of consumer preferences plays a crucial role in the analysis of differentiated product markets, estimation of demand systems is a sensitive task. This paper contributes to this project in two ways. First, we develop a method to deal with the simultaneous choice of an equipment...

This work is focused on identifying a circular pull production control system (PPCS) and make emphasis on the presence of a stability attribute. It is an introductory paper to an extended study of macroeconomic financial stability in a physically open but systemic closed system. Previous work...

The objective of the present study is to examine the interplay between information, trading volume and volatility in Short Sterling futures. More specifically, the paper concentrates on the role of liquidity variables as conduits of information arrival and whether such variables could be an...

Recent real estate literature has not only proposed a few theories to explain the puzzling macro feature of the positive correlation between price and transaction volume, but also attempted to identify the causal relationships between them. However, there is little empirical evidence to...

Using daily prices of both spot and three futures for seven commodities in India, mean reversion/randomness is investigated. The commodities under investigation are: castor seed, gold, guar seed, maize, silver, soybean and soyoil. Traditional unit root tests as well as robust Variance ratio test...
