This paper is aimed at presenting application of bootstrap interval estimation methods to the assessment of financial … investment’s effectiveness and risk. At first, we give an overview of various methods of bootstrap confidence interval estimation …, i.e. bootstrap-t interval, percentile interval and BCa interval. Then, bootstrap confidence interval estimation methods …

We compare more than 1000 different volatility models in terms of their fit to the historical ISE-100 Index data and their forecasting performance of the conditional variance in an out-of-sample setting. Exponential GARCH model of Nelson (1991) with “constant mean, t-distribution, one lag...

We investigate whether alternative asset classes should be included in optimal portfolios of the most prominent investor personae in the Behavioral Finance literature, namely, the Cumulative Prospect Theory, the Markowitz and the Loss Averse types of investors. We develop a stochastic spanning...

The Regression Kink (RK) design is an increasingly popular empirical method, with more than 20 studies circulated using … these estimates, which typically use local linear regression, are highly sensitive to curvature in the underlying …. In contrast, our permutation test reinforces the asymptotic inference results of a recent Regression Discontinuity study …

Portfolio sorting is ubiquitous in the empirical finance literature, where it has been widely used to identify pricing anomalies in different asset classes. Despite the popularity of portfolio sorting, little attention has been paid to the statistical properties of the procedure or to the...

This paper employs weighted least squares to examine the risk-return relation by applying high-frequency data from four major stock indexes in the US market and finds some evidence in favor of a positive relation between the mean of the excess returns and expected risk. However, by using...
