Book Index Arbitrage and Nonlinear Dynamics between the S P 500 Futures and Cash

Download or read book Index Arbitrage and Nonlinear Dynamics between the S P 500 Futures and Cash written by Gerald P. Dwyer and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We use a cost of carry model with nonzero transactions costs to motivate estimation of a nonlinear dynamic relationship between the Samp;P 500 futures and cash indexes. Discontinuous arbitrage suggests that a threshold error correction mechanism may characterize many aspects of the relationship between the futures and cash indexes. We use minute by minute data on the Samp;P 500 futures and cash indexes. The results indicate that nonlinear dynamics are important and related to arbitrage, and suggest that arbitrage is associated with more rapid convergence of the basis to the cost of carry than would be indicated by a linear model.

Book Arbitrage Pricing of Weather Derivatives and the Stochastic Process for the Expectation of Non Linear Weather Indices

Download or read book Arbitrage Pricing of Weather Derivatives and the Stochastic Process for the Expectation of Non Linear Weather Indices written by Stephen Jewson and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider the question of how to derive a stochastic process for the expectation of a non-linear weather index. Under various reasonable assumptions we show that the stochastic process is a deterministic function of Brownian motion. This generalises earlier results which only applied to linear weather indices, and makes it possible to derive arbitrage prices for options written on swaps that settle on such a non-linear index.

Book Nonlinear Pricing

Download or read book Nonlinear Pricing written by Christopher T. May and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1999-02-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Chaostheorie erfreut sich in der Investmentbranche zwar großer Beliebtheit, aber bislang konnte niemand so recht sagen, wie man mit ihrer Hilfe Aktienkurse und Gewinne prognostizieren kann. Dieses Buch zeigt auf der Basis praktischer Methoden, daß Aktienkurse mit Hilfe der nichtlinearen Theorie zumindest teilweise vorhersehbar sind. Es wird anschaulich erläutert, wie verschiedene nichtlineare Techniken wie z.B. genetische Algorithmen, Fuzzy Logic und nichtlineare Dynamik anzuwenden sind. Hierbei läßt der Autor, der diese Methoden selbst gewinnbringend einsetzt, seine eigenen Erfahrungen mit einfließen. Das erste Buch zu diesem Thema, das reale, praxisnahe Anwendungen bietet. (01/99)

Book Indices  Index Funds and ETFs

Download or read book Indices Index Funds and ETFs written by Michael C. I. Nwogugu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indices, index funds and ETFs are grossly inaccurate and inefficient and affect more than €120 trillion worth of securities, debts and commodities worldwide. This book analyzes the mathematical/statistical biases, misrepresentations, recursiveness, nonlinear risk and homomorphisms inherent in equity, debt, risk-adjusted, options-based, CDS and commodity indices - and by extension, associated index funds and ETFs. The book characterizes the "Popular-Index Ecosystems," a phenomenon that provides artificial price-support for financial instruments, and can cause systemic risk, financial instability, earnings management and inflation. The book explains why indices and strategic alliances invalidate Third-Generation Prospect Theory (PT3), related approaches and most theories of Intertemporal Asset Pricing. This book introduces three new decision models, and some new types of indices that are more efficient than existing stock/bond indices. The book explains why the Mean-Variance framework, the Put-Call Parity theorem, ICAPM/CAPM, the Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Ratio, Jensen's Alpha, the Information Ratio, and DEA-Based Performance Measures are wrong. Leveraged/inverse ETFs and synthetic ETFs are misleading and inaccurate and non-legislative methods that reduce index arbitrage and ETF arbitrage are introduced.

Book Coping with the Complexity of Economics

Download or read book Coping with the Complexity of Economics written by Marisa Faggini and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the history of economics, a variety of analytical tools have been borrowed from the so-called exact sciences. As Schoe?er (1955) puts it: “They have taken their mathematics and their ded- tive techniques from physics, their statistics from genetics and agr- omy, their systems of classi?cation from taxonomy and chemistry, their model-construction techniques from astronomy and mechanics, and their methods of analysis of the consequences of actions from en- neering”. The possibility of similarities of structure in mathematical models of economic and physical systems has been an important f- tor in the development of neoclassical theory. To treat the state of an economy as an equilibrium, analogous to the equilibrium of a mech- ical system has been a key concept in economics ever since it became a mathematically formalized science. Adopting a Newtonian paradigm neoclassical economics often is based on three fundamental concepts. Firstly, the representative agent who is a scale model of the whole society with extraordinary capacities, particularly concerning her - pability of information processing and computation. Of course, this is a problematic reduction as agents are both heterogeneous and bou- edly rational and limited in their cognitive capabilities. Secondly, it often con?ned itself to study systems in a state of equilibrium. But this concept is not adequate to describe and to support phenomena in perpetual motion.

Book Arbitrage and theory of valuation in non linear markets

Download or read book Arbitrage and theory of valuation in non linear markets written by Tuncay Pekin and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arbitrage opportunities can be loosely defined as oportnities to make riskless profits on an arbitrarily large scale. Arbitrage concept is the basic technique of analysis in various models in modem finance theory including the Modigliani and Miller's work on the financial structure of the firm and the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model. In this work, the implications of the absence of arbitrage in a two period security-spot market economy where security pricing operators are non-linear are studied. Non-linear asset pricing is a basic issue in finance that may arise from market frictions like transaction costs. Starting from a formulation of an abstract economy , a review of the established theory of arbitrage is made. Equilibrium concepts for economies in the senses of Arrow-Debreu and Radner are given. The no arbitrage condition is then extended to these economies through the equivalence between Arrow-Debreu and Radner equilibrium allocations. The arbitrage analysis for the Radner economy is generalised to an infinite dimensional case by introducing relevant mathematical techniques. Later, the two period security-spot market economy is modified by allowing the security pricing operators to be non-linear to account for various kind of market frictions. Specifically , this is done by removing the linearity assumption on the asset pricing operator while retaining the linear space assumption for its domain. A geometric visualisation of the set of income transfers for such an economy is constructed. It is seen that the assumption that there are no arbitrage opportunities has different implications for frictional markets as characterised by non-linear asset pricing operators and for frictionless markets.Introduction of non-linearity is seen to induce various phenomena that are not seen in canonical security-spot market economies like the presence of limited arbitrage opportunities.

Book Nonlinear Option Pricing

Download or read book Nonlinear Option Pricing written by Julien Guyon and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Tools to Solve Your Option Pricing Problems For nonlinear PDEs encountered in quantitative finance, advanced probabilistic methods are needed to address dimensionality issues. Written by two leaders in quantitative research—including Risk magazine’s 2013 Quant of the Year—Nonlinear Option Pricing compares various numerical methods for solving high-dimensional nonlinear problems arising in option pricing. Designed for practitioners, it is the first authored book to discuss nonlinear Black-Scholes PDEs and compare the efficiency of many different methods. Real-World Solutions for Quantitative Analysts The book helps quants develop both their analytical and numerical expertise. It focuses on general mathematical tools rather than specific financial questions so that readers can easily use the tools to solve their own nonlinear problems. The authors build intuition through numerous real-world examples of numerical implementation. Although the focus is on ideas and numerical examples, the authors introduce relevant mathematical notions and important results and proofs. The book also covers several original approaches, including regression methods and dual methods for pricing chooser options, Monte Carlo approaches for pricing in the uncertain volatility model and the uncertain lapse and mortality model, the Markovian projection method and the particle method for calibrating local stochastic volatility models to market prices of vanilla options with/without stochastic interest rates, the a + bλ technique for building local correlation models that calibrate to market prices of vanilla options on a basket, and a new stochastic representation of nonlinear PDE solutions based on marked branching diffusions.
