From Cournot’s Principle to Market Efficiency

نویسنده

  • Glenn Shafer
چکیده

The efficient-markets hypothesis was formulated in the early 1960s, when Cournot’s principle was no longer widely understood and accepted as a philosophical foundation for probability theory. A revival of Cournot’s principle can help us distinguish clearly among different aspects of market efficiency. Glenn Shafer is Professor in the Rutgers Business School Newark and New Brunswick, 180 University Avenue, Newark, New Jersey 07102 USA, and in the Department of Computer Science, Royal Holloway, University of London, Egham, Surrey TW20 0EX UK.

Non–quasi–competitiveness and Stability in Cournot’s Model

Abstract. This paper retakes previous work of the authors, about the relationship between non–quasi–competitiveness (the increase in price caused by an increase in the number of oligopolists) and stability of the equilibrium in the classical Cournot oligopoly model. Though it has been widely accepted in the literature that the loss of quasi–competitiveness is linked, in the long run as new firm...

Backwards-induction Outcome in a Quantum Game

In economics duopoly is a market dominated by two firms large enough to influence the market price. Stackelberg presented a dynamic form of duopoly that is also called ‘leader-follower’ model. We give a quantum perspective on Stackelberg duopoly that gives a backwards-induction outcome same as the Nash equilibrium in static form of duopoly also known as Cournot’s duopoly. We find two qubit quan...

A Dynamic Analysis of Market Efficiency on Benchmark Crude oil markets: Based on the Adaptive Market Hypothesis

This paper examines the applicability of the adaptive market hypothesis (AMH) as an evolutionary alternative to the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) by studying daily returns on the three benchmark crude oils. The data coverage of daily returns is from January 2th 2003 to March 5th 2018. In this paper, two different tests in the form of two distinguished classes (linear and nonlinear) have bee...

Economic Efficiency of Smallholder in Iran: Adjusted for Market Distortion

To measure an unbiased farm-specific efficiency of individual dairy farmers, a shadow-price profit frontier adjusted for market distortion was applied to a sample of 860 Iranian small intensive dairy farms surveyed in 2005-2006. This measure was then compared with that of unadjusted measure that assumes undistorted market. A multiple general linear model (GLM) technique was applied to the data ...
