We use recent developments on threshold autoregressive models that allow deriving endogenously threshold effects to analyse the evolution of the US stock price–dividend relation over the period 1871 to 2004. More specifically, a mean-reverting dynamic behaviour of the stock price–dividend ratio should be expected once such threshold is reached. Our empirical results showed that significant adju...

One of the most important methods of opacity accounting information by management is to accelerate the identification of good news versus delaying the identification of bad news on profits, but there is always a final level of accumulation of bad news in the company, and by reaching that its final level, these bad news will be released, which will lead to a Stock Price Crash Risk. In fact, stoc...

The study investigates the effect of macroeconomic determinants on the performance of the Indian Stock Market using monthly data over the period January 1991 to December 2011 for eight macroeconomic variables, namely, Interest Rate, Inflation, Exchange Rate, Index of Industrial Production, Money Supply, Gold Price, Silver Price & Oil Price, and two stock market indices namely Sensex and S&P CNX...

This paper explores a method of managing the risk of the stock index futures market and the cross-market through analyzing the effectiveness of price limits on the Chinese Stock Index 300 futures market. We adopt a cross-market artificial financial market (include the stock market and the stock index futures market) as a platform on which to simulate the operation of the CSI 300 futures market ...

We consider the problem of stock repurchase over a finite time horizon. We assume that a firm has a reservation price for the stock, which is the highest price that the firm is willing to pay to repurchase its own stock. We characterize the optimal policy for the trader to maximize the total number of shares he can buy over a fixed time horizon. In particular, we study a greedy policy, which in...

Stock Exchange Share Price is very hard to predict since there are no significant rules to estimate or predict that. Stock price prediction is one of the emerging field of research and many methods like technical analysis, statistical analysis, time series analysis etc are used for this purpose. Artificial Neural Network is a popular technique for the stock price prediction. Here we use Multila...

We examine the impact of share repurchases on the information content of stock prices using several measures of price efficiency. The study is based on manually collected data on share repurchases in the United States for the period 2004-2010. We find that share repurchases make prices more efficient. In particular, share repurchases increase the accuracy of the stock price after negative infor...

Stock price has been found to provide important information about future economic activities. Fama (1981), Fischer and Merton (1984), and Barro (1990), among many others, document a positive relation between stock market return and subsequent growth in investment and output. These findings are consistent with rational expectations asset pricing models, in which stock price is equal to the sum o...
