Some statistical models for durations and an application to News Corporation stock prices

Peiris, Shelton; Allen, David; Yang, Wenling - In: Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (MATCOM) 68 (2005) 5, pp. 545-552

This paper considers a new class of time series models called autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) models. These models have been developed and applied to investigate the price discovery process in the context of financial markets. The various statistical properties of this class of ACD...

The Foresight Bias in Monte-Carlo Pricing of Options with Early

Fries, Christian - EconWPA - 2005

In this paper we investigate the so called foresight bias that may appear in the Monte-Carlo pricing of Bermudan and compound options if the exercise criteria is calculated by the same Monte-Carlo simulation as the exercise values. The standard approach to remove the foresight bias is to use two...

When is the mean self-consistent?

Davidov, Ori - In: Journal of Multivariate Analysis 96 (2005) 2, pp. 295-310

We study the conditions under which the sample mean is self-consistent, and therefore an optimal predictor, for an arbitrary observation in the sample.
