A modification of the self-perturbed Kalman filter of Park and Jun (1992) is proposed for the on-line estimation of models subject to parameter instability. The perturbation term in the updating equation of the state covariance matrix is weighted by the measurement error variance, thus avoiding...

We demonstrate that the parameters controlling skewness and kurtosis in popular equity return models estimated at daily frequency can be obtained almost as precisely as if volatility is observable by simply incorporating the strong information content of realized volatility measures extracted...

In this note, we study of the impact of sell side analyst recommendations and their revisions on prices. We show that the speed at which their information is incorporated into prices has increased in the last decades. This makes systematic strategies taking advantage of recommendation barely...

The game of cricket got a new dimension, when the Indian Premier League (IPL), a competition of twenty over-a-side featuring eight teams named after various Indian cities/states started in 2008. The teams were franchisee driven and the players were selected via competitive bidding from a pool of...
