In this paper, we consider the dynamic features of house price in metropolises that are characterised by a high degree of internationalisation. Using a generalised smooth transition (GSTAR) model we show that the dynamic symmetry in house price cycles is strongly rejected for the housing markets...

We show how one can use deep neural networks with macro-economic data in conjunction with price-volume data in a walk-forward setting to do tactical asset allocation. Low cost publicly traded ETFs corresponding to major asset classes (equities, fixed income, real estate) and geographies (US,...
