the focal objective of this study is to analyze and explore the co-movement of pakistan stock market (kse-100) with the stock market of developed countries (us, uk, canada, australia, germany, japan, france and neither land) which have portfolio investment in pakistan by applying co-integration approach using johansen and juselius multivariate and bi variate co-integration. secondary data of st...

Pareto Density Estimation (PDE) as defined in this work is a method for the estimation of probability density functions using hyperspheres. The radius of the hyperspheres is derived from optimizing information while minimizing set size. It is shown, that PDE is a very good estimate for clusters of Gaussian structure. The robustness of the method is tested with respect to cluster overlap, number...

ITQ regulation relies on a decentralized market mechanism and a single price to allocate access to a stock of fish. The resulting allocation will not be fully efficient if the stock being allocated is heterogeneous or if there are potential gains from centralized coordination of harvesting effort. If stocks are heterogeneous in their density, location, or unit value during the season, harvester...

We analyze the effects of a strategy of constant effort harvesting in the global dynamics of a one-dimensional discrete population model that includes density-independent survivorship of adults and overcompensating density dependence. We discuss the phenomenon of bubbling (which indicates that harvesting can magnify fluctuations in population abundance) and the hydra effect, which means that th...

A jump-diffusion log-return process with log-normal jump amplitudes is presented. The probability density and other properties of the theoretical model are rigorously derived. This theoretical density is fit to empirical log-returns of Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index data. The model repairs some failures found from the log-normal distribution of geometric Brownian motion to model features of ...

Pareto Density Estimation (PDE) as defined in this work is a method for the estimation of probability density functions using hyperspheres. The radius of the hyperspheres is derived from optimizing information while minimizing set size. It is shown, that PDE is a very good estimate for data containing clusters of Gaussian structure. The behavior of the method is demonstrated with respect to clu...

This paper investigates the rank distribution, cumulative probability, and probability density of price returns for the stocks traded in the KSE and the KOSDAQ market. This research demonstrates that the rank distribution is consistent approximately with the Zipf’s law with exponent α = −1.00 (KSE) and −1.31 (KOSDAQ), similar to that of stock prices traded on the TSE. In addition, the cumulativ...

The Fourier transform of the density for the logarithm of the stock price has seen numerous …nancial applications. For a theoretical perspective we cite as examples Du¢ e, Pan and Singleton (2000), and Bakshi and Madan (2000). This transform has become a standard calibration engine following the methods of Carr and Madan (1999) who invoked the Fast Fourier transform for its speed. Direct Fourie...
