A Dynamical Thermostat Approach To Financial Asset Price Dynamics

نویسنده

  • Stefan Thurner
چکیده

A dynamical price formation model for financial assets is presented. It aims to capture the essence of speculative trading where mispricings of assets are used to make profits. It is shown that together with the incorporation of the concept of risk aversion of agents the model is able to reproduce several key characteristics of financial price series. The approach is contrasted to the conventional view of price formation in financial economics.

Herd Behavior and Nonfundamental Asset Price Fluctuations in Financial Markets

In this paper we investigate the effects of herding on asset price dynamics during continuous trading. We focus on the role of interaction among traders, and we investigate the dynamics emerging when we allow for a tendency to mimic the actions of other investors, that is, to engage in herd behavior. The model, built as a mean field in a binary setting (buy/sell decisions of a risky asset), is ...

Heterogeneous Speculators and Asset Price Dynamics: Further Results from a One-Dimensional Discontinuous Piecewise-Linear Map

In this paper we continue exploring a recently introduced financial market model in which boundedly rational agents follow technical and fundamental trading rules to determine their orders. Amongst other things, our model reveals that interactions between heterogeneous speculators can generate interesting boom-bust cycles. In addition, we provide an extensive analytical treatment of the model’s...

Evidence for a hyperbolic-like distribution of asset returns drawn from a simple economical financial markets model

Risk management and asset pricing benefit from simple functional descriptions of the distribution of real asset returns. Recently, several authors have proposed that asset returns in real stock markets are distributed according to a hyperbolic distribution. While asset returns are generated by trades over time, the natural question is: What does economic theory imply concerning return distribut...

Momentum and Overreaction in Experimental Asset Markets

Price volatility and investor overreactions are commonplace in experimental asset markets. Understanding the price dynamics in these markets is crucial for designing successful new trading institutions. We report on a series of experiments to test the predictions of a new momentum model using a dynamical systems approach. This model is then pitted against several standard models to predict pric...
