We examine the linkages between dark and lit venues using a proprietary data set. We find that algorithmic trades for less liquid stocks are correlated with higher spreads and price impact, as well as contemporaneous trading on the lit venues. Also, signed trades for these stocks predict future...

<Para ID="Par1">We introduce a “nestedness” relation for a general class of sender–receiver games and compare equilibrium properties, in particular the amount of information transmitted, across games that are nested.

This study employs information obtained from media content analyses, as well as economic and political data, to investigate negativity in unemployment news between 2001 and 2010 in Germany. The data indicate a substantial bias in terms of the amounts of negative and positive reports, compared...

This paper investigates behavior in finitely repeated simultaneous and sequential-move prisoner’s dilemma games when there is one-sided incomplete information and signaling about players’ concerns for fairness, specifically, their preferences regarding “inequity aversion.” In this...

This paper analyzes the negotiation of a non-binding treaty where agents are uninformed about each others?ability to comply with the terms of the agreement. We show that the presence of incomplete information allows the treaty to become successful under larger set of parameter conditions than...

With the acceleration of oil marketisation and the rapid development of electronic information carriers, external information shocks can be easily and quickly transmitted to the oil market through the Internet. This paper analyses the impact of short- and long-run market concerns, derived from...

Fluid models are used to study functionals of the underlying random processes. Instead of analysing the trajectories, we investigate algebraic equations of the dynamic programming type which turn out to be discrete analogs of the corresponding differential equations. This analysis makes it...
