In this paper, we introduce two classes of indices which can be used to measure the market perception concerning the degree of dependency that exists between a set of random variables, representing different stock prices at a fixed future date. The construction of these measures is based on the...

Prudent upper and lower valuations from the literature on arbitrage free two price economies provide risk characteristics driving required returns. The risk characteristics assess the risk of price fluctuations. The difference between the upper and lower prudent valuations can be viewed as a...

Daily return distributions are modeled by pure jump limit laws that are selfdecomposable laws. The returns may be seen as composed of a sum of independent and identically distributed increments or as a selfsimilar law scaling the sum of exponentially weighted past shocks or a combination...
