Framework ranks sectors influenced by Indian Union Budgets.

problem Real-time analysis of budgetary impacts on sector-specific equity performance.
method Fine-tuned embeddings and language models for sector identification and performance ranking.
result 0.997 NDCG score in predicting sector ranks based on post-budget performances.

For a finitely generated discrete group ΓΓ, the ΓΓ-sectors of an orbifold QQ are a disjoint union of orbifolds corresponding to homomorphisms from ΓΓ into a groupoid presenting QQ. Here, we show that the inertia orbifold and kk-multi-sectors are special cases of the ΓΓ-sectors, and that the ΓΓ-sectors are orbif…

Study compares information flow between Chinese and US stock sectors.

problem Analyzing how information flows between sectors in Chinese and US stock markets.
method Daily sector indices, transfer entropy of daily returns, comparing 2000-2017.
result Most active sectors in information exchange differ between China and US, reflecting market dynamics.

Market sectors play a key role in the efficient flow of capital through the modern Global economy. We analyze existing sectorization heuristics, and observe that the most popular - the GICS (which informs the S&P 500), and the NAICS (published by the U.S. Government) - are not entirely quantitatively driven, but rather…

Study uses multidimensional SE-NBD process to analyze default portfolios and identify shock amplification.

problem Analyzing interactions and shock propagation in default portfolios with multiple sectors.
method Applied multidimensional self-exciting negative binomial distribution (SE-NBD) process to 13 sectors.
result Identified upstream and downstream sectors, showing shock amplification in default portfolios.

With the network methods and random matrix theory, we investigate the interaction structure of communities in financial markets. In particular, based on the random matrix decomposition, we clarify that the local interactions between the business sectors (subsectors) are mainly contained in the sector mode. In the secto…
