The Cross–Section of Stock Returns in Frontier Emerging Markets
We are the first to investigate the cross-section of stock returns in the new emerging equity markets, the so-called frontier emerging markets.

The major benefit of using individual stock characteristics is that it allows us to in...

In this paper we present an interacting-agent model of speculative activity explaining bubbles and crashes in stock markets.

Bubbles and crashes are understood and described qualitatively and quantitatively in terms of the classical...
