Thermodynamic Modeling of Sustainable Nonferrous Metals Production: Part II

Cross-correlations between spot and futures markets of nonferrous metals

In this paper, we investigate cross-correlations between nonferrousmetal spot and futures markets using detrended cross-correlation analysis (DCCA). We find the existence of significant cross-correlations for both return and volatility series. The DCCA-based crosscorrelation coefficients are very high and decrease with the futures maturity increases. Using the multifractal extension of DCCA, th...

Toxic metals and antioxidants: part II the role of antioxidants in arsenic and cadmium toxicity - Toxic Metals Part II

Exposure to toxic metals has become an increasingly recognized source of illness worldwide. Both cadmium and arsenic are ubiquitous in the environment, and exposure through food and water as well as occupational sources can contribute to a well-defined spectrum of disease. The symptom picture of arsenic toxicity is characterized by dermal lesions, anemia, and an increased risk for cardiovascula...

Modeling Growth Stocks ( Part Ii )

Continuing the previous work on growth stocks, we propose a diffusion model for growth stocks. Since growth stocks tend to have low or even negative earnings and high volatility, it is a great challenge to derive a meaningful mathematical model within the traditional valuation framework. The diffusion model not only has economic interpretations for its parameters, but also leads to some interes...
