The paper presents univariate and panel unit root tests for gasoline and oil price convergence over the last decade. We test for the absolute versus relative version of the law of one price (LOOP) and estimate the speed of convergence as well as its development over time. Our results show that...

Efficient pricing in the gasoline market has often been the subject of public debate in Greece during the recent years. The present paper: (a) Investigates the possible existence of asymmetric adjustment of gasoline prices to oil price variations in the Greek market in the recent years, thus...

Despite a large number of studies that examine the influence of biofuels and biofuel policy on commodity prices, the impact of biofuel policy on commodity price variability is poorly understood. A good understanding of biofuel policy's impact on price variability is important for mitigating food...
