Pairs trading is one of convergence trades, which simultaneously buy relatively underpriced assets and sell relatively overpriced assets to exploit temporary mispricing. This paper studies time consistency optimal pairs trading strategies under both "symmetric'' and "non-symmetric'' trading...

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 discuss the Malliavin differentiability of a particular class of Feller diffusions which we call $\delta$-diffusions. This class is given by \begin{equation*} d\nu_t=\kappa(\theta-\nu_t))dt \eta \nu_t^{\delta}d\mathbb W_t^2, \delta\in[\frac{1}{2},1] \end{equation*} and appears...
