Claeskens and Hjort (2003) have developed a focused information criterion (FIC) for model selection that selects different models based on different focused functions with those functions tailored to the parameters singled out for interest. Hjort and Claeskens (2003) also have presented model...

We observe that daily highs and lows of stock prices do not diverge over time and, hence, adopt the cointegration concept and the related vector error correction model (VECM) to model the daily high, the daily low, and the associated daily range data. The in-sample results attest to the...

This paper considers the problems of minimax and [Gamma]-minimax estimation under the LINEX loss function when the parameter space is restricted. A general property of the risk of the Bayes estimator with respect to the two-point prior is presented. Minimax and [Gamma]-minimax estimators of the...

Loss aversion is a core concept in prospect theory that refers to people's asymmetric attitudes with respect to gains and losses. More specifically, losses loom larger than gains. With the capability of loss aversion to explain economic phenomena, some of which are puzzling under expected...
