• This paper investigates the distribution characteristics of stock market liquidity. • This paper utilizes the GAMLSS model and high-frequency data from Chinese stock markets. • The mean and variance of stock market liquidity move in the opposite directions. • The stock market liquidity normally exhibits a positive skewness. • The stock market liquidity exhibits a normal distribution at a low ...

Stock-based compensation puts managers in the position of having, at some point, to sell stock. The prevalence of stock-based compensation in the 1990s allegedly created incentives for managers to hype their companies’ stock price by manipulating earnings before selling stock. Consistent with this conjecture, we find that managers tended to inflate earnings prior to selling stock. Moreover, the...

This paper investigates international stock market dynamics and their linkages. It uses factor models to extract stock market indicators from common cyclical stock components of industrialized countries, emerging markets, the BRICT, and global stock markets. We find that the stock market indicators for these groups are correlated with each other and with the global market factor. The BRICT disp...

During the past two years, Chinese joint-stock companies have been converting nontradable stock held by the state and state-controlled institutions, which constitute twothirds of all stock in Chinese firms, into stock that can trade on local exchanges. This ownership reform reduces direct state control over industrial enterprises. It also greatly increases the supply of stock, which threatens t...

The option-pricing problem is always an important part in modern finance. Assuming that the stock diffusion is a constant, some literature has introduced many stock models and given corresponding option pricing formulas within the framework of the uncertainty theory. In this paper, we propose a new stock model with uncertain stock diffusion for uncertain markets. Some option pricing formulas on...

Stock market represents an essential part of the economy in the Middle East, it is significant for shareholders and investors to estimate the stock price and select the best trading opportunity accurately in advance. This paper utilizes artificial neural network in the modeling of stock market exchange prices. The network was trained using supervised learning. Simulation was conducted for seven...

Structural shifts characterize the volatility of the Korean stock and foreign exchange markets during the 1997 Asian financial crisis. This paper employs an unrestricted bivariate GARCH-M model of stock market returns to investigate empirically the effects of daily currency depreciation on Korean stock market returns. The evidence shows that currency depreciation significantly affects stock mar...

Authors present the stock price prediction algorithm by using Bayesian network. The present algorithm uses the network twice. First, the network is determined from the daily stock price and then, it is applied for predicting the daily stock price which was already observed. The prediction error is evaluated from the daily stock price and its prediction. Second, the network is determined again f...

This paper investigates the relationship between aggregate stock market trading volume and the serial correlation of daily stock returns. For both stock indexes and individual large stocks, the first-order daily return autocorrelation tends to decline with volume. The paper explains this phenomenon using a model in which risk-averse "market makers" accommodate buying or selling pressure from "l...
