Recently considerable attention has been given to downside risk control in the context of portfolio choice; see Sortino and Satchell (2005). We propose an integrated model for portfolio choice in which downside risk is considered explicitly at the stage of the scenario generation which describes...

The paper considers kernel estimation of conditional quantiles for both short-range and long-range-dependent processes. Under mild regularity conditions, we obtain Bahadur representations and central limit theorems for kernel quantile estimates of those processes. Our theory is applicable to...

We report an empirical study of a predictive analysis model for equities; the model uses high frequency (minute-bar) market data and quantified news sentiment data. The purpose of the study is to identify a predictive model which can be used in designing automated trading strategies. Given that...

A class of semiparametric fractional autoregressive GARCH models (SEMIFAR-GARCH), which includes deterministic trends, difference stationarity and stationarity with short-and long-range dependence, and heteroskedastic model errors, is very powerful for modelling financial time series. This paper...
