This study examines the potential impact of nuclear energy consumption on environmental sustainability in the context of economic globalization using FMOLS, DOLS and panel Granger causality tests with a panel of BRICS countries data for the period 1985-2020 based on the inverted U-curve...

With global climate change posing a major threat to human society, many countries have elevated "carbon neutrality" to a national strategy and put forward a vision of a zero-carbon future. In this process, environmental regulation (ER) and renewable energy technology innovation (RET) are...

As distributing centres of trade and transportation network, ports play an important role in the development of the national economy. With the changing of the global business environment, the port enterprise operation environment is continuously changing, and growing problems are becoming...

Forecasting stock market movements is a challenging task from the practitioners' point of view. We explore how model selection via the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) approach can be better used to forecast stock closing prices using real-world datasets of daily stock...

Growing evidence indicates that utility over time is different from utility under risk. Hence, measuring intertemporal preferences (discounting and utility) exclusively from intertemporal choices is desirable. We develop a simple method for measuring intertemporal preferences. It is...

The current knowledge system of macroeconomics is built on interactions among a small number of variables, since traditional macroeconomic models can mostly handle a handful of inputs. Recent work using big data suggests that a much larger number of variables are active in driving the dynamics...

As distributing centres of trade and transportation network, ports play an important role in the development of the national economy. With the changing of the global business environment, the port enterprise operation environment is continuously changing, and growing problems are becoming...

The fierce competitions in supply chain are changing the conventional buyer-seller relationship, which leads to undermine business strengths. To respond this transformation, strategic partnership has been gaining increasing attention. However, recent research points out that it still lacks the...

We derive a parsimonious model of damage to corporate earnings from COVID-19. Using measures of expected damage from industry-level earnings forecast revisions, we estimate this model with nonlinear least squares and identifying restrictions related to forecast rationality. Forecasts in mid-May...
