We develop a Bayesian implementation of the standard optimal hedging model to analyze the impact of hedgers' subjective views on their hedging behavior. The results show the subjective views have a substantial impact on hedgers' optimal positions, explaining the large cross-sectional and time...

Despite significant improvements in nominal levels, severe gaps of digital inclusion still exist in the American economy. This paper argues that, for certain groups, migration towards mobile computing and digital inclusion may transpire from 2G voice centric mobile telecommunications to data...

The standard optimal hedging model has been the preferred theoretical model of normative hedging behavior. In empirical applications, the model is often implemented with the parameter certainty equivalent (PCE) procedure. However, the PCE procedure completely ignores parameter estimation risk...

The optimal hedging model has become the standard theoretical model of normative hedging behavior due to its intuitive tradeoff of expected return with risk, its effcient use of information and its easy implementation. In practice, the model can be easily implemented with the Parameter Certainty...

The current study points out that the derivation of the aggregate demand curve based on theory of consumer behavior has a fundamental flaw, from which the Giffen product has to be inferior good and has been always regarded as an exception of law of demand is therefore not convincing. The current...

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has increasingly become part of firm productions, attracting researchers to explore the consequences of AI on firms and labor markets. In this study, by contrast, we investigate an important antecedent of AI innovation—media coverage of labor issues. By...
