This empirical study is conducted to apply the Fama French three-factor model in the Australian context using the most recent daily data for the period of 5 years from July 2009 to May 2015. The focus of this study is on various approaches of portfolio formation adopted in previous empirical...

We extract contextualized representations of news text to predict returns using the state-of-the-art large language models in natural language processing. Unlike the traditional bag-of-words approach, the contextualized representation captures both the syntax and semantics of text, thus...

Estimated effects of relative prices on trade shares are presented in this paper for 64 countries. The equations are estimated using pooled time series, cross section data under the assumption that the error term is serially correlated across time and heteroskedastic across countries. The...
