The paper characterizes first and second order tail behavior ofconvolutions of i.i.d. heavy tailed random variables with supporton the real line. The result is applied to the problem of riskdiversification in portfolio analysis and to the estimation of theparameter in a MA(1) model.

When using daily mutual fund returns to study the market timing, heavy tails and heteroscedasticity significantly challenge the existing methods. We to accommodate them, we propose a new measure and an efficient test for market timing ability and find that the traditional test misclassifies...

This paper examines the dynamics of the covariance matrix of return rates for securitized real estate, other company stocks, and government bonds for a cross-section of eight countries. In-sample analysis establishes that in all countries the covariance matrix is time-varying and reacts stronger...

When using daily mutual fund returns to study market timing ability, heavy tails and heteroscedasticity significantly challenge the existing methods. We propose a weighted nonparametric measure and test for market timing. The test finds that the traditional parametric inference misclassifies...
