The paper develops models for asset returns based on market conditions and uses them to construct a trading policy.

We study contingent claims in a discrete-time market model where trading costs are given by convex functions and portfolios are constrained by convex sets. In addition to classical frictionless markets and markets with transaction costs or bid-ask spreads, our framework covers markets with nonlinear illiquidity effects…

This paper focuses on the stability of the non-arbitrage condition in discrete time market models when some unknown information ττ is partially/fully incorporated into the market. Our main conclusions are twofold. On the one hand, for a fixed market SS, we prove that the non-arbitrage condition is preserved under a m…

We study a robust stochastic optimization problem in the quasi-sure setting in discrete-time. We show that under a lineality-type condition the problem admits a maximizer. This condition is implied by the no-arbitrage condition in models of financial markets. As a corollary, we obtain existence of an utility maximizer …

Recent studies show that a negative shock in stock prices will generate more volatility than a positive shock of similar magnitude. The aim of this paper is to appraise the hypothesis under which the conditional mean and the conditional variance of stock returns are asymmetric functions of past information. We compare …

We model the influence of sharing large exogeneous losses to the financial or (re)insuance market by a bipartite graph. Using Pareto-tailed losses and multivariate regular variation we obtain asymptotic resu…

Paper proposes a new framework to compare trading strategies by accounting for market conditions.

problem Lack of information on how trading strategy performance varies with market conditions.
method Uses a GAMLSS/ZAGA framework to model the Adjusted Information Ratio (IRIR^{\ast}) for a SVMP and BH strategy across 146 folds of the S&P 500.
result Dominance of SVMP over BH is conditional on market regime, as shown by differences in expected IRIR^{\ast} and its variance.

We introduce a class of utility-based market makers that always accept orders at their risk-neutral prices. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for such market makers to have bounded loss. We prove that hyperbolic absolute risk aversion utility market makers are equivalent to weighted pseudospherical scoring …
