Value-at-Risk and Tsallis statistics: risk analysis of the aerospace sector
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, we analyze the aerospace stocks prices in order to characterize the sector behavior. The data analyzed cover the period from January 1987 to April 1999. We present a new index for the aerospace sector and we investigate the statistical characteristics of this index. Our results show that this index is well described by Tsallis distribution. We explore this result and modify the standard Value-atRisk (VaR), financial risk assessment methodology in order to reflect an asset which obeys Tsallis non-extensive statistics.

Although the practical importance of investment analysis in long-term energy investments is well understood, choosing the proper method has always been a dilemma. In this regard, classic evaluation methods, with a history of almost a century, are mostly favored, but using them in the valuation of long-lasting energy projects has particular shortcomings, nevertheless. The drawbacks mainly stem f...
متن کاملEstimation of portfolio efficient frontier by different measures of risk via DEA
In this paper, linear Data Envelopment Analysis models are used to estimate Markowitz efficient frontier. Conventional DEA models assume non-negative values for inputs and outputs. however, variance is the only variable in these models that takes non-negative values. Therefore, negative data models which the risk of the assets had been used as an input and expected return was the output are uti...
متن کاملValue at Risk Estimation using the Kappa Distribution with Application to Insurance Data
The heavy tailed distributions have mostly been used for modeling the financial data. The kappa distribution has higher peak and heavier tail than the normal distribution. In this paper, we consider the estimation of the three unknown parameters of a Kappa distribution for evaluating the value at risk measure. The value at risk (VaR) as a quantile of a distribution is one of the import...

متن کاملDischarge Estimation by using Tsallis Entropy Concept
Flow-rate measurement in rivers under different conditions is required for river management purposes including water resources planning, pollution prevention, and flood control. This study proposed a new discharge estimation method by using a mean velocity derived from a 2D velocity distribution formula based on Tsallis entropy concept. This procedure is done based on several factors which refl...
