Salmon farming companies are increasingly gaining attention from investors and portfolio managers. The last decade has seen a substantial growth in the securitization of salmon farming assets and prices. A growing literature demonstrates that industry-specific fundamental, as well as market-wide...

We estimate the impact of macroeconomic risk factors on shipping stock returns, using a quantile regression (QR) model. We regress the excess return of a portfolio for the container, dry bulk, chemical/gas, oil tanker, and diversified shipping sectors on the world market portfolio excess return,...

In this paper, we propose and construct a direct measure of investors' divergence of opinionbased on auction bids data of the private placements in China. We find that the firms withhigher bids dispersion generate lower long-run stock returns after the issuance of privateplacements. This effect...

We create an artificial stock market (ASM) which mimics results of the analytical game theory model. By showing the convergence of simulated results to analytical, we assess the created ASM as a powerful tool for further research of more sophisticated market compositions and set-ups, allowing...

We study the equilibrium in the model proposed by Kyle in 1985 and extended that we consider a framework where the price pressure can be random. We also allow for a random release time of the fundamental value of the asset. This framework includes all the particular Kyle models proposed in the...

The paper deals with the pattern of asset price dynamics as sequence of "bull markets" and "bear markets" and with stabilizing these" long swings" through replacing continuous asset trading with electronic auctions. First, the paper sketches the channels through which the "overshooting" of...

I employ a parsimonious model with learning but without conditioning information to extract time-varying measures of market-risk sensitivities, pricing errors and pricing uncertainty. Parameters estimated for U.S. equity portfolios show significant fluctuations, along patterns that change across...

This paper addresses stock market volatility in Germany between 1991 and 2018. Through a GARCH model with leverage term, an estimation of volatility in the DAX is provided. Such estimation is then plugged into a quantile regression model where potential economic determinants are analyzed. The...
