This paper studies a discrete-time portfolio optimization problem, wherein the underlying risky asset follows a Lévy GARCH model. Besides a Gaussian noise, the framework allows for various jump increments, including infinite-activity jumps. Using a dynamic programming approach and exploiting...

Commonly used priors for Vector Autoregressions (VARs) induce shrinkage on the autoregressive coefficients. Introducing shrinkage on the error covariance matrix is sometimes done but, in the vast majority of cases, without considering the network structure of the shocks and by placing the prior...

The study investigates the stock price movement of quoted Nigerian oil and gas firms using the Markovian model. Specifically, the study estimates the change in likelihoods and steady-state distribution of the share prices of the firms to determine the average time spent by the share price to...
