This research examines the structural properties of the macroscopic model introduced in [AlShelahi and Saigal, 2018]. We present a theoretical analysis of the behavior of the macroscopic variables. In particular, we show that the model exhibits shock-like solutions, providing a new narrative for...

The return dynamics of Argentina's main stock index, the SP Mer.Val., show a high level of volatility, signaling a higher degree of downside risk. To hedge against that specific risk, investors could buy put options. However, the Argentinean capital markets lacks variety of hedging contracts....
