Estimating the Order-Flow Component of Security Returns

Estimating the Order-Flow Component of Security Returns

We derive a structural model of the amount of private information that is conveyed to the market via order flows. The model is a continuous-time Kyle model in which there is public information arrival and in which the strategic trader may or may not have private information. For empirical implementation, we treat each trading day as a separate instance of the model. Monte Carlo analysis shows t...

the effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends

flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...

Estimating Marginal Returns to Education

Estimating Marginal Returns to Education.

This paper estimates marginal returns to college for individuals induced to enroll in college by different marginal policy changes. The recent instrumental variables literature seeks to estimate this parameter, but in general it does so only under strong assumptions that are tested and found wanting. We show how to utilize economic theory and local instrumental variables estimators to estimate ...

Estimating Returns to Scale in the Presence of Undesirable Factors in Data Envelopment Analysis

This research identifies returns to scale (RTS) of efficient decision making units (DMUs) with desirable (good) and undesirable (bad) inputs and outputs by presenting a new DEA (data envelopment analysis) approach. In this study, we first introduce a new input-output oriented model to determine efficient DMUs in the presence of undesirable factors and then, returns to scale of these DMUs are es...
