In this paper we develop a dynamic model for integer counts to capture the dis- creteness of price changes for financial transaction prices. Our model rests on an autoregressive multinomial component for the direction of the price change and a dynamic count data component for the size of the...

This paper analyzes the interday stability of the price process using transaction data. While the vast majority of empirical studies on the microstructure of financial markets rests on the tacit assumption that observed prices are generated by a time-invariant price process, we question this...

This article focuses on the relationship between the Dollar and the German stock market. Since there is only weak significance of a stable bivariate long-run relationship, relevant information sets are limited to shorter periods. Using rolling regressions, the results show that direction and...
