Behavioral Aspects of Market Anomalies Anomaly is defined as ‘something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected’ by Oxford dictionary (2016). George and Elton (2001) has defined market anomaly as a new or unexpected phenomenon in relation to any theory, model or hypothesis. The founder of behavioural finance, Tversky and Kahneman (1986), suggested that the market anomalies are the indicators of inefficient markets, which might either occur only once and disappear, or occur…

Δfsw−coeff(푚,휃푣)=1−(1−Δfsw−nom(푚,휃푣))∗푘 (9) The coefficients are multiplied with the base switching frequency to provide the operating switching frequency of the inverter, as shown in Fig. 5. It should be noted that the base switching frequency magnitude does not depend on the sub-cycle current ripple variation and is typically adjusted based on operating current, speed and temperature of the traction drive [1]. SIMULATION RESULTS For the simulation study, a two-level inverter driving a…

1. What are the most interesting findings from alliance research as reported by Beamish and Lupton? Findings reported by Beamish and Lupton on Research Alliance: • Performance measures are not only profitability and stock market returns, as the stocks are sometimes not traded and objective is sometimes not short term profitability. Better are Surveys of JV managers regarding satisfaction on financial/operational performance, knowledge transfer and capability development. Objective measures may…

EC371 Term paper Contrast the ‘Adaptive Markets Hypothesis’ with the ‘Efficient Markets Hypothesis’, being careful to assess their respective strengths and weaknesses. 1. Introduction In recent years the effectiveness of the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) has been substantially questioned by the financial economists and a new theory related to the market behaviour, known as the Adaptive Market Hypothesis (AMH), was proposed. In order to critically assess and contrast these…

The History of the Development of the Four Fundamental Forces Nature has a total of four fundamental forces. The forces include gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear and weak nuclear force. Gravitational force is the force of attraction between all masses. Every object in this universe is pulling upon other objects. Many scientists came up with logics to explain the science behind gravitational forces. The first one to try was Aristotle in around 330 BC. Aristotle believed Earth and…

I believe that “The Cosmological Argument” for God is still quite valid, my reasons for defending this argument have been produced after a great deal of reflection on the matter, I have concluded that the argument is still quite useful. To best describe the argument, it is the conclusion that “nothing comes from nothing” as was stated by St. Aquinas, in other words God must exist because if there was nothing then we needed something to “call it into existence” so to speak. This coincides…

Data For the purpose of this analysis, I choose to use the World Bank 2007 data to come up with a detailed conclusion. I used 32 different countries scattered throughout the world in my analysis, to provide an unbiased result. Three relevant variables were chosen to be analyzed and discussed later on in this section. These variables as mentioned earlier include foreign direct investments, agriculture and industry. The graph provided below is a summary statistic of the three variables in thirty…

One such alternative include minimizing the summation of errors in absolute quantities. According to Sykes, unbiasedness is when a parameter’s true value equals the mean of probability distribution. He states that consistency is comparison of different estimators that are unbiased and finding the lowest variance…

Multiple Regression Analysis Question 1 The overarching objective is to assess the demographic variables that influence the perceptions of faculty members toward the organizational justice. In particular, the demographic variables include the occupation of the faculty members, rank, experience, and size. Various analyses are performed on the data, including descriptive and inferential analysis. Notably, the measures for occupation, rank, and the perceptions of faculty members are categorical…

The Kriging weights w_i1,w_i2,w_i3,…w_ik can be used to estimate the fair value of VA contracts x ⃑_i by the following formula, y ̂_i=∑_(j=1)^k▒〖w_ij∙y_j 〗. The kriging weights can be calculated by the following linear equations, Where the is a control variable, which is used to make sure that ∑_(j=1)^k▒w_ij =1. V_rs=α+exp⁡(-3/β D(z ⃑_r,z ⃑_s,λ)),r,s=1,2,3,…,k, D_ij=α+exp⁡(-3/β D(x ⃑_i,z ⃑_j,λ)),j=1,2,3,…,k, The D(.) function is the distance function mentioned in the clustering section…
