The effectiveness of Keynes–Tobin transaction taxes when heterogeneous agents can trade in different markets: A behavioral finance approach
We develop a model in which boundedly rational agents apply technical and fundamental analysis to identify trading signals in two different speculative markets. Whether an agent trades and, if so, in which market with which strategy depends on profit considerations. As it turns out, an ongoing evolutionary competition between the trading strategies causes complex price dynamics which closely re...

Mechanisms for facilitating people’s interactions with businesses, their governments, and each other are ubiquitous in today’s society. One emerging trend over the past decade, along with increasing computational power and bandwidth, has been a demand for higher levels of expressiveness in such mechanisms. This trend has already manifested itself in combinatorial auctions and generalizations th...
متن کاملThe Efficiency of Optimal Taxes
It is well known that the selfish behavior of users in a network can be regulated through the imposition of the so-called optimal taxes on the network edges. Any traffic equilibrium reached by the selfish users who are conscious of both the travel latencies and the taxes will minimize the social cost, i.e., will minimize the total latency. Optimal taxes incur desirable behavior from the society...
متن کاملThe economic consequences of a Tobin tax – An experimental analysis
The effects of a Tobin tax on foreign exchange markets have long been disputed. We present an experiment with currency trading on two markets, where either none, one, or both markets are taxed. Our results confirm the hitherto undisputed issues: a tax reduces trading volume, shifts market share to untaxed markets, and leads to negligible tax revenues if tax havens exist. Concerning the controve...
