Modelling of extreme events has always been of interest in fields such as hydrology and meteorology. However, after the recent global financial crises, appropriate models for modelling of such rare events leading to these crises have become quite essential in the finance and risk management fields. This paper models the extreme values of the Ghana stock exchange all-shares index (2000-2010) by ...

Pricing of options on stocks that are driven by multi-dimensional coupled price-temporal infinitely divisible fluctuations. We model the price of a stock via a Langévin equation with multi-dimensional fluctuations coupled both in the price in time. We generalise previous models in that we assume that the fluctuations conditioned on the time step are assumed to be compound Poisson processes with...

Stock market is affected by news and information. If the stock market is not efficient, the reaction of stock price to news and information will place the stock market in overreaction and under-reaction states. Many models have been already presented by using different tools and techniques to forecast the stock market behavior. In this study, the reaction of stock price in the stock market was ...

today, stock investment has become an important mean of national finance. apparently, it is significant for investors to estimate the stock price and select the trading chance accurately in advance, which will bring high return to stockholders. in the past, long-term trading processes and many technical analysis methods for stock market were put forward. however, stock market is a nonlinear sys...

The aim of this study was to investigate the asymmetric effects of exchange rate fluctuations on Stock index of Tehran Stock Exchange. For this purpose, we first calculated the exchange rate fluctuations using model General Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (GARCH), and then the effect of these fluctuations on the Stock index of Tehran Stock Exchange was estimated using the Generalized...

The thesis studies the martingale properties, probabilistic methods and efficient unbiased Monte Carlo simulation methods for various time-homogeneous diffusion models commonly used in mathematical finance. Some of the popular stochastic volatility models such as the Heston model, the Hull-White model and the 3/2 model are special cases. The thesis consists of the following three parts: Part I ...

How multiple stressors influence fish stock dynamics is a crucial question in ecology in general and in fisheries science in particular. Using time-series covering a 30 yr period, we show that the body growth of the central Baltic Sea herring Clupea harengus, both in terms of condition and weight-at-age (WAA), has shifted from being mainly driven by hydro-climatic forces to an interspecific den...

Stochastic system is applied to describe and investigate the fluctuations of stock price changes in a stock market, and a stock price model is developed by the finite-range contact process of the statistical physics systems. In this paper, the scaling behaviors of the return intervals for SSE Composite Index (SSE) and the simulation data of the model are investigated and compared. The database ...

Stock trend forecasting is a one of the main factors in choosing the best investment, hence prediction and comparison of different firms’ stock trend is one method for improving investment process. Stockholders need information for forecasting firm’s stock trend in order to make decision about firms’ stock trading. In this study stock trend, forecasting performs by data mining algorithm. It sho...
