International Stock Return Predictability Under Model Uncertainty

Schrimpf, Andreas - 2008

This paper examines return predictability when the investor is uncertain about the right state variables. A novel feature of the model averaging approach used in this paper is to account for finite-sample bias of the coefficients in the predictive regressions. Drawing on an extensive...

Further evidence on the (in-) efficiency of the U.S. housing market

Schindler, Felix - 2010

Extending the controversial findings from relevant literature on testing the efficient market hypothesis for the U.S. housing market, the results from the monthly and quarterly transaction-based Case-Shiller indices from 1987 to 2009 provide further empirical evidence on the rejection of the...

Market efficiency in the emerging securitized real estate markets

Schindler, Felix - 2010

This paper tests the random walk hypothesis and market efficiency for twelve emerging as well as for four developed securitized real estate markets from 1992 to 2009. Random walk properties of equity prices influence return dynamics, and market efficiency is often considered an essential...

A simple agent-based financial market model: Direct interactions and comparisons of trading profits

Westerhoff, Frank - 2009

We develop an agent-based financial market model in which agents follow technical and fundamental trading rules to determine their speculative investment positions. A central feature of our model is that we consider direct interactions between speculators due to which they may decide to change...

A simple model of a speculative housing market

Dieci, Roberto; Westerhoff, Frank - 2009

We develop a simple model of a speculative housing market in which the demand for houses is influenced by expectations about future housing prices. Guided by empirical evidence, agents rely on extrapolative and regressive forecasting rules to form their expectations. The relative importance of...
