We analyze the financial integration of the new European Union (EU) member states' stock markets using the negative (positive) coexceedance variable that counts the number of large negative (large positive) returns on a given day across the countries. We use a multinomial logit model to...

We analyze the financial integration of the new EU member states’ stock markets using the coexceedance variable that counts the number of large negative returns on a given day across the countries. We use a multinomial logit model to investigate which factors influence the coexceedance...

This paper suggests a factor model for carry trade strategies wherethe regression coeffcients are allowed to depend on market volatility and liquid-ity. Empirical results on daily data from 1995 to 2008 show that a typical carrytrade strategy has much higher exposure to the stock market and also...
