Blog Post: PsyFiBlog: Be Kind To An Old Person ' Start With Yourself Posted: 09 Apr 2012 11:17 PM PDT No One Will Care When Youâre Old Around the globe governments struggling with budget deficits have been making sure that they target the true villains of the financial crisis. Admittedly, it's slightly surprising that treasury ministers seem to have decided that their money problems werenât caused by errant and badly incentivised bankers but by old age pensioners rushing about...

Blog Post: Falkenblog: Is It Possible to Not be a Hack? Posted: 09 Apr 2012 07:51 PM PDT I was reading Bryan Caplan defend biases, and I concur. Eleizer Yudkowsky once wrote;If you first write at the bottom of a sheet of paper, âAnd therefore, the sky is green!â, it does not matter what arguments you write above it afterward; the conclusion is already written, and it is already correct or already wrong. To be clever in argument is not rationality but rationalization.He makes a... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Blog Post: AllAboutAlpha: EDHEC on CDS Speculators and Eurozone Bonds Posted: 09 Apr 2012 06:39 PM PDT The relationship between two markets that OâKane posits might almost be taken as a paradigm of the difference between Granger causation and physical causation. Consider the case of two distinct radar systems, one better at long range detection than the other. The superior radar system will detect an incoming airplane before the inferior system will. Thus, there will be a relationship of Granger... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Posted: 09 Apr 2012 05:34 PM PDT It was not until the beginning of the 1990s that the effects of information and communication technology on economic growth as well as on the profitability of enterprises raised the interest of researchers. After giving a general description on the relationship between a more intense use of ICT devices and dynamic economic growth, the author identified and explained those four channels that had a...

Published / Preprint: Negative Call Prices. (arXiv:1204.1903v1 [q-fin.PR]) Posted: 09 Apr 2012 05:34 PM PDT We show that the existence of an equivalent local martingale measure for asset prices does not prevent negative prices for European calls written on positive stock prices. In particular, we illustrate that many standard no-arbitrage arguments implicitly rely on conditions stronger than the No Free Lunch With Vanishing Risk (NFLVR) assumption. The discrepancy between replicating prices and market... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
Posted: 09 Apr 2012 05:34 PM PDT We propose a multi-scale stochastic volatility model in which a fast mean-reverting factor of volatility is built on top of the Heston stochastic volatility model. A singular pertubative expansion is then used to obtain an approximation for European option prices. The resulting pricing formulas are semi-analytic, in the sense that they can be expressed as integrals. Difficulties associated with... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |

It makes the observation that as the propagation of prices and trades reach relativistic velocities, that very relativistic limitation of propagation induces some intermediate locations (midpoints between each pair of the 52 world exchanges weighted by turnover velocity)...

This decision was announced as part of recent Federal Budget. In eliminating the penny, Canada will be joining a host of other countries who have "taken the plunge" in recent years. No sooner had the announcement been made, than I began to encounter comments (on talk-back radio, and elsewhere) to the effect... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |

Blog Post: TimingLogic: Renminbi Rate Near Equilibrium Posted: 09 Apr 2012 06:50 AM PDT Ya think? We have written for many years that the Chinese currency was overvalued and would eventually implode or be devalued, thus destabilizing global trade and investment in China even further. This while our last two Treasury Secretaries called for China to let the renminbi float so that it would appreciate in value. Ignorant U.S. politicians will eat those...

Research Library: The Supply and Demand of Alpha (pdf) Posted: 27 Mar 2012 06:23 AM PDT Harry Markowitz, Robert Snigaroff and David Wroblewski Abstract This paper analyzes the supply and demand for alpha by institutional investors and them money managers who serve them. A large database of products offered by such managers is used to estimate how the demand for such products increases as a function of achieved excess returns and how the ability to produce such excess returns...

Research Library: Predicting Financial Distress and the Performance of Distressed Stocks (pdf) Posted: 27 Mar 2012 06:18 AM PDT John Y. Campbell, Jens Hilscher, and Jan Szilagyi Abstract In this paper we consider the measurement and pricing of distress risk. We present a model of corporate failure in which accounting and market-based measures forecast the likelihood of future financial distress. Our best model is more accurate than leading alternative measures of corporate failure risk. We then use our measure... Visit MoneyScience for the Complete Article. |
