Our objective is to explore the correlation between stock market and investors’ attention in China’s stock market through empirical analysis method. We use search volume (SV) to represent individual investors’ attention. We choose 1380 a-share stocks in SSE and SZSE from 2008 to 2011. After summarizing time series data of different cross-sections, we get the panel data. According to the fixed e...

Proponents of compensation plans based on economic profits argue that these plans control for deficiencies in stock-based or earnings-based bonus plans and thereby better align managers’ and shareholders’ interests. We examine whether compensation plans based on economic profits do in fact produce better investment decisions. We use a sample of 51 firms adopting economic profit plans between 19...

We take a decision theoretical approach to fisheries management, using a Bayesian approach to integrate the uncertainty about stock dynamics and current stock status, and express management objectives in the form of a utility function. The value of new information, potentially resulting in new control measures, is high if the information is expected to help in differentiating between the expect...

In this paper, Fuzzy logic and Neural Network approaches for predicting financial stock price are investigated. A study of a knowledge based system for stock price prediction is carried out. We explore Trapezoidal membership function method and Sugeno-type fuzzy inference engine to optimize the estimated result. Our model utilizes the performance of artificial neural networks trained using back...

Abstract Markov manpower planning models have extensively been analyzed in the past in order to find an optimal personnel strategy for which the manpower system evolves towards desirable stocks. So far, those models do not take into account interactions among different organizational decision levels. In this paper, a multi-level manpower planning model is presented that considers, besides the d...

Financial options, namely stock options, are ways in which investors can manage the risk level of their portfolios and control the timing of various cash flows. Because, in most basic terms, this class of derivatives consists of agreements to buy or sell financial assets (here, shares of stock) at a prescribed time in the future, determining their fair market value requires a prediction of the ...

Supply chains in industry have a very complex structure. The influence of many parameters is not known. Therefore the control of the orders, material flow and stock is rather difficult. In order to recognize the basic relationships between the parameters, a very simple model was set up. It consists of 4 identical stages. In all stages the stock is closed-loop controlled to a nominal stock. Ther...
