This paper deals with the interrelations between stocks listed and traded in two international unsynchronized markets. The data exhibits first order nonstationarity and the series across markets are cointegrated. This gives a justification for an error correction model which incorporates a short...

Mean and variance of daily type-A and B stock returns in Shanghai and Shenzhen exchanges are studied before and after these stocks were subject to a -10% daily return limit, and when investors' clientele were segmented, vs. merged. We find that imposing the -10% return limit significantly...

Empirically, mutual fund flows depend on past performance. It is unclear, however, whether this behavior is rational. Using the experimental approach we analyze behavior without confronting measurement problems of real data. We detect two anomalies: quot;Absolute Performance Effectquot; --...

The experimental approach was applied to test the value of historical return series in technical prediction. Return sequences were randomly drawn cross-sectionally and over time from S&P500 records and participants were asked to predict the 13th realization from 12 preceding returns. The...

The field experimental approach was utilized to collect expectations-arbitrage portfolios from competent investors in late 2008 where stock prices shrunk by 50%. Positions were closed after three months and the four-factor model was applied to characterize strategies and derive risk-adjusted...

We present experimental evidence suggesting that human subjects dislike complexity in choice with uncertainty. Our results suggest that the probability of choosing a given alternative decreases with the relative complexity of that alternative. Complexity increases the noise in the choice process...
