POSCMs extend SCMs for causal modeling with latent contexts.
In order to disentangle the internal dynamics from exogenous factors within the Autoregressive Conditional Duration (ACD) model, we present an effective measure of endogeneity. Inspired from the Hawkes model, this measure is defined as the average fraction of events that are triggered due to internal feedback mechanism…
Endogenous business cycles explain higher comovement across countries.
We address microscopic, agent based, and macroscopic, stochastic, modeling of the financial markets combining it with the exogenous noise. The interplay between the endogenous dynamics of agents and the exogenous noise is the primary mechanism responsible for the observed long-range dependence and statistical propertie…
Method estimates exogenous and endogenous factors from event times.
We present an agent behavior based microscopic model that induces jumps, spikes and high volatility phases in the price process of a traded asset. We transfer dynamics of thermally activated jumps of an unexcited/ excited two state system discussed in the context of quantum mechanics to agent socio-economic behavior an…
Study reveals 2020 stock crashes were mostly endogenous, not exogenous.
A method to identify new classes of price jumps in financial markets.
Religious adherence reduces corporate greenwashing behavior.
The paper models market crashes as phase transitions, finding dynamic transitions offer better predictions.
The three-state agent-based 2D model of financial markets as proposed by Giulia Iori has been extended by introducing increasing trust in the correctly predicting agents, a more realistic consultation procedure as well as a formal validation mechanism. This paper shows that such a model correctly reproduces the three f…
This paper suggests that business cycles may be a manifestation of coupled real economy and stock market dynamics and describes a mechanism that can generate economic fluctuations consistent with observed business cycles. To this end, we seek to incorporate into the macroeconomic framework a dynamic stock market model …
The paper tackles reinforcement learning with exogenous variables and rewards.
We propose a dynamic mean field model for `systemic risk' in large financial systems, which we derive from a system of interacting diffusions on the positive half-line with an absorbing boundary at the origin. These diffusions represent the distances-to-default of financial institutions and absorption at zero correspon…
Endogenous randomness emerges from adversarial market learning.
Existence of incomplete Radner equilibrium with endogenous noise tracker.
This study presents an agent-based computational cross-market model for Chinese equity market structure, which includes both stocks and CSI 300 index futures. In this model, we design several stocks and one index futures to simulate this structure. This model allows heterogeneous investors to make investment decisions …
The paper develops an economic foundation for multi-agent learning in markets.
Modeling financial bubbles and crashes with a cubic momentum function.
We study the competitive equilibrium of large random economies with linear activities using methods of statistical mechanics. We focus on economies with commodities, firms, each running a randomly drawn linear technology, and one consumer. We derive, in the limit with fixed, a complete de…
Easy conditions found for simplifying complex systems.
New findings allow infinite mean intensity Hawkes processes to be stable.
New taxonomy reveals different detection limits for various types of fraud.
Systems with long-range persistence and memory are shown to exhibit different precursory as well as recovery patterns in response to shocks of exogeneous versus endogeneous origins. By endogeneous, we envision either fluctuations resulting from an underlying chaotic dynamics or from a stochastic forcing origin which ma…
Model analyzes Proof-of-Stake network dynamics and speculative capital effects on token prices.
This paper models financial contagion with endogenously determined market liquidity.
Study classifies stock price jumps as exogenous or endogenous using news data.
In this article we consider the volatility inference in the presence of both market microstructure noise and endogenous time. Estimators of the integrated volatility in such a setting are proposed, and their asymptotic properties are studied. Our proposed estimator is compared with the existing popular volatility estim…
New method tackles endogeneity in online learning with improved regret bounds.
Test for linearizing 2-input systems with 2D feedback.
Model explains stock price bubbles through debt crises and financial crashes.
Paper corrects bias in online learning algorithms with endogenous data.
Finance is about how the continuous stream of news gets incorporated into prices. But not all news have the same impact. Can one distinguish the effects of the Sept. 11, 2001 attack or of the coup against Gorbachev on Aug., 19, 1991 from financial crashes such as Oct. 1987 as well as smaller volatility bursts? Using a …
A new boosting method corrects endogeneity bias in instrumental variable regression.
Endogenous reinsurance pricing in large insurance markets
We describe a simple model for speculative trading based on adaptive behavior of economic agents.The adaptive behavior is expressed through a feedback mechanism for changing agents' stock-to-bond ratios, depending on the past performance of their portfolios.The stock price is set according to the demand-supply for the …
Paper proposes a new model to assess risks in energy storage systems considering both exogenous and endogenous uncertainties.
The Minority Game framework was recently generalized to account for the possibility that agents adapt not only through strategy selection but also by diversifying their response according to the kind of dynamical regime, or the risk, they perceive. Here we study the effects of this mechanism in different information st…
We developed a novel statistical method to identify structural differences between networks characterized by structural equation models. We propose to reparameterize the model to separate the differential structures from common structures, and then design an algorithm with calibration and construction stages to identif…
This paper highlights the role of risk neutral investors in generating endogenous bubbles in derivatives markets. We find that a market for derivatives, which has all the features of a perfect market except completeness and has some risk neutral investors, can exhibit extreme price movements which represent a violation…
Study optimal reinsurance for insurers with a reinsurer's default risk.
Investor optimizes utility in a market with endogenous pricing.
We present a model that investigates the spontaneous emergence of randomness in equity market microstructure. The phase space analysis of our model exposes an endogenous source of fluctuation in price and volume. We formulate a control problem for maximizing price regularity and stability while minimizing entanglement …
Study detects endogenous bubbles in meme stocks using CI.
Using the mechanics of creep in material sciences as a metaphor, we present a general framework to understand the evolution of financial, economic and social systems and to construct scenarios for the future. In a nutshell, highly non-linear out-of-equilibrium systems subjected to exogenous perturbations tend to exhibi…
