This paper examines the effects of uncertainty and the choice of financial structure in a vertically differentiated duopoly. In the market model consumers are located along a continuum of taste parameters and prefer unanimously higher to lower qualities when quality prices are set at average...

American options on the S&P 500 index futures that violate the stochastic dominance bounds of Constantinides and Perrakis (2007) from 1983 to 2006 are identified as potentially profitable trades. Call bid prices more frequently violate their upper bound than put bid prices do, while violations...

This paper examines the stochastic dominance efficiency in the presence of transaction costs for Samp;P 500 index futures call and put options by estimating bounds on reservation write and reservation purchase prices and then verifying whether the observed option prices satisfy them. The bounds...

We derive the boundaries of the region of no transaction when the risky asset follows a mixed jump-diffusion process in the presence of proportional transaction costs. These boundaries are shown to differ from their diffusion counterparts in relation to the jump intensity for lognormally...

We examine the stochastic dominance bounds for call options in the presence of proportional transaction costs, developed in a discrete time and for a discrete or continuous state model of the returns of the underlying asset by Constantinides and Perrakis (CP, 2002, 2007). We consider a lognormal...
