In this paper, we are interested in continuous time models in which the index level induces some feedback on the dynamics of its composing stocks. More precisely, we propose a model in which the log-returns of each stock may be decomposed into a systemic part proportional to the log-returns of the index plus an idiosyn…

We develop a simple stock selection model to explain why active equity managers tend to underperform a benchmark index. We motivate our model with the empirical observation that the best performing stocks in a broad market index often perform much better than the other stocks in the index. Randomly selecting a subset o…

The Stochastic Volatility (SV) model and its variants are widely used in the financial sector while recurrent neural network (RNN) models are successfully used in many large-scale industrial applications of Deep Learning. Our article combines these two methods in a non-trivial way and proposes a model, which we call th…

Paper uses neural networks to analyze oil price impact on Iranian stock and industry indices.

problem Impact of oil price volatility on Tehran stock and industry indices.
method Feed-forward neural networks analysis of two periods: sanctions and post-sanctions.
result Neural networks predict stock and industry indices well, showing significant oil price volatility impact.

Multifractal analysis and extensive statistical tests are performed upon intraday minutely data within individual trading days for four stock market indexes (including HSI, SZSC, S&P500, and NASDAQ) to check whether the indexes (instead of the returns) possess multifractality. We find that the mass exponent τ(q)τ(q) is l…

Sentiment analysis of DAX40 stocks improves performance by 5.38% annually.

problem Creating a more responsive stock market index using sentiment analysis.
method Extract sentiment from news articles, adjust index weights based on sentiment, compare performance to existing indices.
result Sentiment index outperforms DAX40 by 7.51% annually, adjusted for costs.

Scaling properties of the BUX index are similar to those observed in other parts of the world. The main difference is that the traditional quantities like volatility, growth and autocorrelation of returns follows more closely the assumptions of the traditional stock market theory developed by Bachelier and by Black and…

Membership in the Russell 1000 and 2000 Indices is based on a ranking of market capitalization in May. Each index is separately value weighted such that firms just inside the Russell 2000 are comparable in size to firms just outside (i.e. at the bottom of the Russell 1000) but have much higher index weights. These feat…
