We present a simple dynamical model of stock index returns which is grounded on the ability of the Cyclically Adjusted Price Earning (CAPE) valuation ratio devised by Robert Shiller to predict long-horizon performances of the market. More precisely, we discuss a discrete time dynamics in which...

We develop a nonlinear dynamic Cournot duopoly model in discrete time, where two bounded rational quantity-setting firms, both endowed with naïve expectations, are heterogeneous as to their cost functions and output strategies. One of the two competing firms adopts best-reply behaviour, whereas...

We study the asymptotic normality of two estimators of the integrated volatility of volatility based on the Fourier methodology, which does not require the pre-estimation of the spot volatility.We show that the bias-corrected estimator reaches the optimal rate 1/4, while the estimator without...
