Posted: 09 Jan 2013 02:37 AM PST

2012 didn’t really see any new technology outcomes. I look around the house today and see an iPad, iPhone and other things, but nothing essentially radically new from 2012 that’s big and different.  But something is about to happen that will change things fundamentally. read more...

Blog Post: Falkenblog: Bob Haugen RIP

Posted: 08 Jan 2013 07:05 PM PST

Bob Haugen passed away last Sunday. My favorite Haugen articles are really two.  In Commonalities in Commonality in the Determinants of Expected Stock Returns (1995, with Nardin Baker), he basically showed that there's lots of stange things going on in the stock market. He looked at 40 or so specific metrics related to liquidity, price ratios, prior returns, growth, and risk, and found many...

Published / Preprint: The Foster-Hart Measure of Riskiness for General Gambles. (arXiv:1301.1471v1 [q-fin.RM])

Posted: 08 Jan 2013 05:30 PM PST

Foster and Hart proposed an operational measure of riskiness for discrete random variables. We show that their defining equation has no solution for many common continuous distributions including many uniform distributions, e.g. We show how to extend consistently the definition of riskiness to continuous random variables. For many continuous random variables, the risk measure is equal to the...

Published / Preprint: Multivariate risk measures: a constructive approach based on selections. (arXiv:1301.1496v1 [q-fin.RM])

Furthermore, it is reasonable to include the exchange rules in the argument of the risk and so consider risk measures of set-valued portfolios....

Published / Preprint: Asymptotic Power Utility-Based Pricing and Hedging. (arXiv:0912.3362v3 [q-fin.PM] UPDATED)

Posted: 08 Jan 2013 05:30 PM PST

Kramkov and Sirbu (2006, 2007) have shown that first-order approximations of power utility-based prices and hedging strategies can be computed by solving a mean-variance hedging problem under a specific equivalent martingale measure and relative to a suitable numeraire. In order to avoid the introduction of an additional state variable necessitated by the change of numeraire, we propose an...
