Book Synopsis Does the UK Stock Market Overreact? Some Further Evidence for Stock Market Efficiency by : Arief Daynes
Download or read book Does the UK Stock Market Overreact? Some Further Evidence for Stock Market Efficiency written by Arief Daynes and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the central hypotheses of behavioural finance is that stock prices systematically overreact. The seminal study is DeBondt and Thaler (1985), which appears to show that past winners (stocks that have earned the highest positive abnormal returns during the pre-formation period) tend to exhibit negative abnormal returns during the post-formation period, and similarly that past losers (stocks that have earned the greatest negative abnormal returns during the pre-formation period) tend to exhibit positive abnormal returns during the post-formation period. Pre- and post-formation periods range from one year to five years. It is further reported that stocks that have 'overreacted' the most, i.e. where the pre-formation period is longer, and hence where the abnormal returns are more extreme, tend to exhibit a correspondingly greater 'correction' during the post-formation period. The ensuing debate has focussed mainly on whether the results can be explained by a risk-premium story. However, the question has also been raised as to whether the purported overreaction effect actually exists at all, or whether it is merely an artefact created by data or methodological biases. The present study addresses the second of these issues, by carrying out an overreaction study using a new survivorship and look-ahead bias-free database on the UK stock market, SFD Capital UK Fully Listed Version 2.1, and using both cumulative abnormal return and holding period return methodologies in computing long-term returns. Using cumulative abnormal returns largely corroborates the results of DeBondt and Thaler (1985), while using holding period returns finds no evidence of overreaction. It is argued that the main results of the paper provide further evidence for weak form efficiency in the UK stock market.
Book Synopsis Risk-Return Relationship and Portfolio Management by : Raj S. Dhankar
Download or read book Risk-Return Relationship and Portfolio Management written by Raj S. Dhankar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-24 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers all aspects of modern finance relating to portfolio theory and risk–return relationship, offering a comprehensive guide to the importance, measurement and application of the risk–return hypothesis in portfolio management. It is divided into five parts: Part I discusses the valuation of capital assets and presents various techniques and models used in this context. Part II then addresses market efficiency and capital market models, particularly focusing on measuring market efficiency, which is a crucial factor in making correct investment decisions. It also analyzes the major capital market models like CAPM and APT to determine to what extent they are suitable for use in developing economies. Part III highlights the significance of risk–return analysis as a prerequisite for investment decisions, while Part IV examines the selection and performance appraisals of portfolios against the backdrop of the risk–return relationship. It also examines new tools such as the value-at-risk application for mutual funds and the applications of the price-to-earnings ratio in portfolio performance measurement. Lastly, Part V explores contemporary issues in finance, including the relevance of Islamic finance in the increasingly volatile global financial system.
Book Synopsis Statistical Approach to Stock Market Overreaction and Seasonality by : YuYan Hu
Download or read book Statistical Approach to Stock Market Overreaction and Seasonality written by YuYan Hu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their study "Does the Stock Market Overreact?", Debondt and Thaler proposed the overreaction hypothesis, which states that if a stock experiences significant price movement, then a subsequent price movement in the opposite direction is likely to follow. Moreover, the level of extremeness is positively correlated between the initial and the following price movement. In this study we would adopt the similar algorithm, using the data of recent three decades to test the overreaction hypothesis. Besides, the study of overreaction has shed light to the research of "January Effect" in stock market. A linear regression model will be used to test the existence of "January Effect", by analyzing the stocks with greater losses.
Book Synopsis Quantitative Momentum by : Wesley R. Gray
Download or read book Quantitative Momentum written by Wesley R. Gray and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The individual investor's comprehensive guide to momentum investing Quantitative Momentum brings momentum investing out of Wall Street and into the hands of individual investors. In his last book, Quantitative Value, author Wes Gray brought systematic value strategy from the hedge funds to the masses; in this book, he does the same for momentum investing, the system that has been shown to beat the market and regularly enriches the coffers of Wall Street's most sophisticated investors. First, you'll learn what momentum investing is not: it's not 'growth' investing, nor is it an esoteric academic concept. You may have seen it used for asset allocation, but this book details the ways in which momentum stands on its own as a stock selection strategy, and gives you the expert insight you need to make it work for you. You'll dig into its behavioral psychology roots, and discover the key tactics that are bringing both institutional and individual investors flocking into the momentum fold. Systematic investment strategies always seem to look good on paper, but many fall down in practice. Momentum investing is one of the few systematic strategies with legs, withstanding the test of time and the rigor of academic investigation. This book provides invaluable guidance on constructing your own momentum strategy from the ground up. Learn what momentum is and is not Discover how momentum can beat the market Take momentum beyond asset allocation into stock selection Access the tools that ease DIY implementation The large Wall Street hedge funds tend to portray themselves as the sophisticated elite, but momentum investing allows you to 'borrow' one of their top strategies to enrich your own portfolio. Quantitative Momentum is the individual investor's guide to boosting market success with a robust momentum strategy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis The Mind of Wall Street by : Leon Levy
Download or read book The Mind of Wall Street written by Leon Levy and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2009-03-25 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As stock prices and investor confidence have collapsed in the wake of Enron, WorldCom, and the dot-com crash, people want to know how this happened and how to make sense of the uncertain times to come. Into the breach comes one of Wall Street's legendary investors, Leon Levy, to explain why the market so often confounds us, and why those who ought to understand it tend to get chewed up and spat out. Levy, who pioneered many of the innovations and investment instruments that we now take for granted, has prospered in every market for the past fifty years, particularly in today's bear market. In The Mind of Wall Street he recounts stories of his successes and failures to illustrate how investor psychology and willful self-deception so often play critical roles in the process. Like his peers George Soros and Warren Buffett, Levy takes a long and broad view of the rhythms of the markets and the economy. He also offers a provocative analysis of the spectacular Internet bubble, showing that the market has not yet completely recovered from its bout of "irrational exuberance." The Mind of Wall Street is essential reading for all of us, whether we are active traders or simply modest contributors to our 401(k) plans, as volatile and unnerving markets come to define so much of our net worth.
Book Synopsis Stock Market Overreaction and Fundamental Valuation by : Mathias Külpmann
Download or read book Stock Market Overreaction and Fundamental Valuation written by Mathias Külpmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-10-23 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the stock market overreact? Recent capital market turbulences have cast doubt whether the behaviour of stock markets is in line with rational investor behaviour. This book investigates recent evidence of reversals in the cross section of stock returns. The surprising finding of this monograph is that reversals in stock returns are parallelled by movements in fundamentals. Outperformance in the stock market is driven by outperformance in corporate earnings. This monograph analyses this effect and provides background reasoning both from a theoretical and from an empirical point of view. The reader will pursue the question whether capital markets are efficient and thereby obtain a deeper understanding of the relationship between stock returns and underlying fundamentals.
Book Synopsis Psychology of Intelligence Analysis by : Richards J Heuer
Download or read book Psychology of Intelligence Analysis written by Richards J Heuer and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this seminal work, published by the C.I.A. itself, produced by Intelligence veteran Richards Heuer discusses three pivotal points. First, human minds are ill-equipped ("poorly wired") to cope effectively with both inherent and induced uncertainty. Second, increased knowledge of our inherent biases tends to be of little assistance to the analyst. And lastly, tools and techniques that apply higher levels of critical thinking can substantially improve analysis on complex problems.
Book Synopsis Advances in Behavioral Finance by : Richard H. Thaler
Download or read book Advances in Behavioral Finance written by Richard H. Thaler and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 1993-08-19 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern financial markets offer the real world's best approximation to the idealized price auction market envisioned in economic theory. Nevertheless, as the increasingly exquisite and detailed financial data demonstrate, financial markets often fail to behave as they should if trading were truly dominated by the fully rational investors that populate financial theories. These markets anomalies have spawned a new approach to finance, one which as editor Richard Thaler puts it, "entertains the possibility that some agents in the economy behave less than fully rationally some of the time." Advances in Behavioral Finance collects together twenty-one recent articles that illustrate the power of this approach. These papers demonstrate how specific departures from fully rational decision making by individual market agents can provide explanations of otherwise puzzling market phenomena. To take several examples, Werner De Bondt and Thaler find an explanation for superior price performance of firms with poor recent earnings histories in the tendencies of investors to overreact to recent information. Richard Roll traces the negative effects of corporate takeovers on the stock prices of the acquiring firms to the overconfidence of managers, who fail to recognize the contributions of chance to their past successes. Andrei Shleifer and Robert Vishny show how the difficulty of establishing a reliable reputation for correctly assessing the value of long term capital projects can lead investment analysis, and hence corporate managers, to focus myopically on short term returns. As a testing ground for assessing the empirical accuracy of behavioral theories, the successful studies in this landmark collection reach beyond the world of finance to suggest, very powerfully, the importance of pursuing behavioral approaches to other areas of economic life. Advances in Behavioral Finance is a solid beachhead for behavioral work in the financial arena and a clear promise of wider application for behavioral economics in the future.

Book Synopsis A Reappraisal of the Efficiency of Financial Markets by : Rui M.C. Guimaraes
Download or read book A Reappraisal of the Efficiency of Financial Markets written by Rui M.C. Guimaraes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 799 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The behaviour of market prices is a fascinating subject for researchers. Opinions vary substantially. from the view that prices accurately and quickly reflect relevant information to the other extreme that prices are not rationally determined and are hence to some degree predictable. This diversity of belief about the efficiency of markets is reflected in these proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "A reappraisal of the efficiency of financial markets". The thirty-one workshop papers cover stock. currency and commodity markets. We are pleased to have contributions on markets in eleven NATO countries: Belgium. Canada. Denmark. France. Germany. Greece. Italy. the Netherlands. Portugal. the United Kingdom and the United States. The workshop papers thus provide a wide-ranging account of contemporary research into financial markets worldwide. The workshop was held at the Hotel do Mar. Sesimbra. Portugal from April 11 th to April 15th. 1988. We record our gratitude to Jose Cabral for ensuring the smooth progress of the workshop. The generous financial assistance of NATO was supplemented by contributions from: The Chicago Board of Trade. Alianca Seguradora. Banco Comercial Portugues. Fundacao Luso-Americana Para 0 Desenvolvimento. Junta Nacional de Investigacao Cientifica e Tecnologica. We speak for all the workshop participants in expressing our thanks to all our sponsors.
