This paper studies the profitability of applying technical analysis that signals the entry and exit from the stock market in three Chinese stock markets - the Shanghai, Hong Kong and Taiwan Stock Exchanges. The Simple Moving Average (MA) and its extensions, Exponential MA, Dual MA, Triple MA,...

This study examines the empirical relationship between unusual trading volume and earnings surprises in China's A-share market. We provide evidence that an unusually low trading volume can signify negative information about firm fundamentals. Moreover, unusual trading volumes could predict...

This paper endeavors to compare the profitability of Moving Average Envelopes and Bollinger Bands. Despite the fact that Bollinger Bands can capture sudden price fluctuations which Moving Average Envelopes cannot, our study reveals that Bollinger Bands do not outperform the Moving Average Envelopes.

Using daily open-to-close and close-to-open stock prices, this paper examines whether there are any lead-lag relationships between the Tokyo Stock Exchange and the other G7 stock markets. In particular, this paper analyzes whether the movements of other markets in the preceding trading session...

This paper develops a new kind of aggregation model. We extend the work of Linden (1999) to allow the AR coefficient to be drawn from a polynomial density function. The polynomial density incorporates a wealth of multi-modal density functions as special cases. Given the aggregate data, we...

This paper considers the asymptotic behavior of the break-point estimator when some or all of the variables in a structural-break model are misspecified. An obvious example is misspecifying a linear model as a log--log model. The results given here cover a large number of data transformations,...

Most of the existing autoregressive models presume that the observations are perfectly measured. In empirical studies, the variable of interest is unavoidably measured with various kinds of errors. Thus, misleading conclusions may be yielded due to the inconsistency of the parameter estimates...

Conventional two-sided matching game is a one-period game. In this note, we contribute to the existing literature by examining a multi-period two-sided matching problem allowing for the possibility of a divorce. We assume that the matching game is played repeatedly and the payoff matrix changes...

Consider a simple change-point model with a binary regressor. We examine the consistency of the change-point estimator when the regressor is subject to misclassification. It is found that the time of change can always be identified. Further, special cases where the structural parameters can also...
