Blog Post: RobertPestonBlog: How business can bypass banks Posted: 13 Mar 2012 01:41 AM PDT Banks in Europe, including the UK, are far more important to the provision of credit than is the case in the US. Roughly, European banks provide 80% of our credit needs, compared with 20% in the US - where securitisation that allows investors to lend is massively more significant.read more...

Blog Post: FinanceClippings: The VIX is low... Posted: 12 Mar 2012 06:08 PM PDT This is relevant to my MBA students who currently have an assignment on implied volatility: The VIX has declined steadily over the past few months, and at the same time, stocks have rebounded. From the graph it appears that the VIX is quite negatively correlated with the S&P 500. Something that is pointed out here and here. I decided to grab some data from yahoo finance...

Blog Post: AllAboutAlpha: What Do Day-One/Early-Stage Investors Want? Posted: 12 Mar 2012 06:07 PM PDT Funds of funds dominate the world of institutional investors in Day 1 or early stage (D1/ES) hedge funds, and they do so for a simple reason. That is their business model. They exist to invest in hedge funds, and their goal is to be fully invested at all times, not to have a lot of money sitting around as cash.

Blog Post: TimingLogic: Tell The FDA To Get BPA Out Of Our Food Packaging Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:59 PM PDT I eat almost nothing out of a can. Ever. And I buy nothing packaged in plastic unless it is frozen. My leftovers usually are stored in glass containers or BPA free plastic containers. Nothing is better than glass. Itâs inert. I have already alerted the few food companies that I buy canned food products from that if they donât change their packaging,... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Blog Post: Falkenblog: The Philosophy of the Ultra Wealthy Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:53 PM PDT At the MIT Conference last Friday, our lunchtime keynote address was from Donald Sussman, the founder and chairman of Paloma Partners. He's a very rich guy and surely has made many savvy business decisions. For example, he mentioned that around 1992 he was invited with about 200 businessmen to hear a pitch by the Chinese government on investing in China. He not only paid his own way unlike...

Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:32 PM PDT In this paper we provide compelling evidence of cyclical mean reversion and multiperiod stock return predictability over horizons of about 30 years with a half-life of about 15 years. This implies that the US stock market follows a long-term rhythm where a period of above average returns tends to be followed by a period of below average returns. We demonstrate that this long-term stock market... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Published / Preprint: Bounds for rating override rates. (arXiv:1203.2287v1 [q-fin.RM]) Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:32 PM PDT Overrides of credit ratings are important correctives of ratings that are determined by statistical rating models. Financial institutions and banking regulators agree on this because on the one hand errors with ratings of corporates or banks can have fatal consequences for the lending institutions and on the other hand errors by statistical methods can be minimised but not completely avoided....

Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:32 PM PDT We characterize the small-time asymptotic behavior of the exit probability of a L\'evy process out of a two-sided interval and of the law of its overshoot, conditionally on the terminal value of the process. The asymptotic expansions are given in the form of a first order term and a precise computable error bound. As an important application of these formulas, we develop a novel adaptive...

Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:31 PM PDT The purpose of this paper is to design an algorithm for the computation of the counterparty risk which is competitive in regards of a brute force "Monte-Carlo of Monte-Carlo" method (with nested simulations). This is achieved using marked branching diffusions describing a Galton-Watson random tree. Such an algorithm leads at the same time to a computation of the (bilateral) counterparty risk when...

Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:31 PM PDT A perturbative approach is used to derive approximations of arbitrary order to estimate high percentiles of sums of positive independent random variables that exhibit heavy tails. Closed-form expressions for the successive approximations are obtained both when the number of terms in the sum is deterministic and when it is random. The zeroth order approximation is the percentile of the maximum... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:31 PM PDT If the probability of default parameters (PDs) fed as input into a credit portfolio model are estimated as through-the-cycle (TTC) PDs stressed market conditions have little impact on the results of the capital calculations conducted with the model. At first glance, this is totally different if the PDs are estimated as point-in-time (PIT) PDs. However, it can be argued that the reflection of... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Posted: 12 Mar 2012 05:31 PM PDT In emissions trading, the initial allocation of permits is an intractable issue because it needs to be essentially fair to the participating countries. There are many ways to distribute a given total amount of emissions permits among countries, but the existing distribution methods, such as auctioning and grandfathering, have been debated. In this paper we describe a new method for allocating... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |

The data tracks Twitter activity around the protests that took place in May 2011, which led to the formation of camp sites in dozens of cities all over...
