The purpose of this study is to explore the dynamic properties of causality and asymmetric price transmission in the distributional channel of the tomato market in Korea. Using the wholesale and retail price series of the tomato market, we obtain the following results. First, the price transmission mechanism reveals the causal relationship channeling from the wholesale price to the retail price. Second, we find an asymmetric price transmission from the analysis using the threshold partial adjustment model. The retail price responds strongly when the wholesale price increases. On the other hand, the retail price shows sluggish adjustment when the wholesale price decreases.

The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate whether asymmetric price transmission exists in the distribution stage of farmed olive flounder market. For the analysis, time series data were used for the producer prices of Jeju and Wando, and the wholesale prices of Incheon, Hanam and Busan. Through the Granger causality test, the causal relationship from the producer price to the wholesale price was derived and the asymmetric price transmission was analyzed using the autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL). As a result of the analysis, it was found that there is a phenomenon of 'positive asymmetric price transmission' from the producer price to the wholesale price. This result can be one evidence that excess profits are received in the intermediate distribution stage, and can be said to be a result showing the incompleteness and inefficiency of the distribution structure of the farmed olive flounder. In the future, it is required to establish an information-sharing system in all stages of production, distribution, and consumption that can create a competitive environment for distribution participants and resolve information asymmetry. Also, it is necessary to review the distribution center specializing in live fish from the viewpoint of the establishment of new distribution channels and sales diversification strategy under the rapidly changing fisheries environment.

This paper tries to apply the asymmetrical price transmission(APT) behavior observed in the agricultural industry to supply chains of the domestic fishery industry by a statistical manner. The fore mentioned asymmetrical price transmission refers to when price movements in the later stage of the supply chain do not move in a normal or symmetrical manner corresponding to price movements in the earlier stage of the supply chain. Therefore, when the earlier stage price increase and the later stage price increases to a larger degree, it is called positive(+) asymmetry and the opposite behavior is called negative(-) asymmetry. The study examines the data from domestic producers of three fresh fish types, hairtail, mackerel, and cuttlefish, and tries to examine the price asymmetry between the producer or farm, wholesaler, and retail prices via an APT test utilizing unit root, cointegration, and error correction model. The study found, hairtail wholesale and retail pricing bas a negative asymmetric relationship while mackerel has a negative asymmetric pricing relationship at the producer and retail levels of the supply chain. In the case of cuttlefish, all levels of the supply chain showed negative asymmetrical behavior in the supply chain price transmission, meaning the earlier stage price changes are more rapidly and greatly inputted in the later stage of the supply chain pricing. We believe that the reason why the analysis results show negative price asymmetry is due to the uniqueness of fishery products having an important variable such as freshness. If price increases are greater and quicker than price decreases, then consumer demand, which is sensitive to price increases will decrease and subsequently result in the increase of inventory levels, reducing profits for retailers. Also, frozen hairtail, mackerel, and cuttlefish will act as substitute goods to fresh fishery products. Therefore, fresh fishery products have a high demand of price elasticity. When prices increase, demand quickly decreases. Therefore the profit of wholesalers and retailers to decrease, I think this is the main reason of APT in the supply chain of Korea' s fisheries industry.

One of the main challenges receiving much attention in the Rwandan agriculture and food industry in recent decades is the increases in maize prices. Indeed, a rise in maize prices causes higher living expenses for households because maize, which is a major staple food crop, constitutes a significant share of total food consumption among households in Rwanda. The aim of this study was to assess the extent of integration and how prices are transmitted between retail and wholesale markets of domestic maize in Rwanda. This study used monthly data of retail and wholesale prices of maize from January 1995 to December 2019. This empirical investigation was based on a linear cointegration approach and an asymmetric error correction model framework. Using the augmented dickey-fuller residual-based test and the Johansen Maximum Likelihood cointegration test, the results revealed that the retail and wholesale markets of maize are integrated. Hence, prices in these markets do not drift apart in the long run. The results of the Granger causality test revealed that there is a unidirectional causal relationship flowing from wholesale prices to retail prices, i.e., wholesale prices influence retail prices. Accordingly, the results from the asymmetric error correction model confirmed the presence of a positive asymmetric price transmission between wholesale and retail prices of maize in Rwanda. Thus, we suggest that policymakers take a critical look at the causes and factors that may influence asymmetry price transmission.

This study was conducted to determine the efficiency of the distribution process of the abalone industry, that is, whether there is market dominance. In addition, it was intended to find out whether there is an asymmetric price transfer phenomenon between the distribution stage of the abalone industry. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, the asymmetric price transition effect on the abalone price between producer and wholesale market was found to be positive. It means that the distribution structure is incomplete between the producer and the wholesale market and the abalone market is operating inefficiently. Second, as a result of estimating the market power between the producer and the wholesale market, the market power coefficient between the producer and the Hanam wholesale market, and the producer and the Incheon wholesale market were 0.0618 and 0.0735. Summarizing the analysis results, the abalone market has an asymmetric price transition between producer and wholesale markets, but the market dominance coefficient is relatively low. These results suggest that the asymmetry of price transition is mainly caused by market dominance, but can also be caused by other factors such as information asymmetry. In the future, in addition to the market dominance of the abalone market, it is judged that research on factors related to the asymmetry of price transition is necessary.

This paper contributes to the ongoing controversy over price and volatility spillovers across countries by providing new evidence with the futures data of the S&P 500 and Nikkei 225 index futures contacts from January 3, 1990 to April 16, 1996. Based on the two-stage symmetric and asymmetric GARCH models we document that both the U.S. and the Japanese daytime returns significantly influence the subsequent overnight returns of the other market. We find no signs of volatility spillovers between two international markets with the symmetric model. However, with the asymmetric models, we find that the magnitude of foreign negative shocks are different from the positive ones. The findings generally suggest that the two markets are more sensitive to the bad news originating in the other market. This nature of transmission between two markets would have important implications to the arbitragers who are trying to exploit the short-term dynamics of price and volatility movements across two security markets.

동 연구는 휘발유 가격 수준에 따른 국제 유가에 대한 국내 가격 조정의 비대칭성을 분위수 자기회귀시차분포 모형을 사용하여 확인한다. 추정에 사용된 자료는 2008년 5월 첫 번째 주부터 2022년 10월 두 번째 주까지의 주간 평균 두바이유가, 정유사 휘발유가, 주유소 휘발유가이다. 추정은 두바이유가에 대한 주유소 휘발유 가격, 두바이유가에 대한 정유사 휘발유 가격, 정유사 휘발유 가격에 대한 주유소 가격의 변화, 세 가지에 대해 이루어졌다. 추정 결과, 두바이유가에 대한 정유사 휘발유 가격의 조정은 휘발유 가격의 모든 분위에 걸쳐 비대칭적으로 나타난 반면 두바이유가와 정유사 휘발유 가격에 대한 주유소 가격의 조정은 휘발유 가격의 분위수가 높을수록 비대칭적으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 휘발유 가격 변화에 따른 주유소의 재고 비용 변화에 기인하는 것으로 추측된다. 재고 비용에 대한 부담이 높을수록 주유소에게는 상승한 휘발유의 매입가격을 보다 적극적으로 판매가격에 전가하고자 하는 유인이 있다.

The study investigates the asymmetric effect of exchange rate changes on stock prices in Vietnam. We use the nonlinear autoregressive-distributed lag (ARDL) analysis for monthly data from 2001:01 to 2018:05, based on VN-Index stock price collected from Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE); the nominal exchange rate is separated into currency depreciation and appreciation through a partial sum decomposition process. Asymmetry is estimated both in the long-run relationship and the short-run error correction mechanism. The research results show that the effect of exchange rate changes on stock prices is asymmetrical, both in the short run and in long run. Accordingly, the stock prices react to different levels to depreciation and appreciation. However, the currency appreciation affects a stronger transmission of stock prices when compared to the long-run currency depreciation. In the absence of asymmetry, the exchange rate only has a short-run impact on stock prices. This implies a symmetrical assumption that underestimates the impact of exchange rate changes on stock prices in Vietnam. This study points to an important implication for regulators in Vietnam. They should consider the relationship between exchange rate changes and stock prices in both the long run and the short run to manage the stock and foreign exchange market.

본 연구는 국제유가와 대미환율이 변동할 경우에 국내 석유제품의 가격이 어떻게 반응하는지를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 가격변동에 대한 완전조정오차수정모형(full adjustment error correction model)을 설정한 후, 실증분석을 통해 휘발유와 경유, 등유의 세 가지 제품에 대한 정유사의 생산가격과 주유소 판매가격의 비대칭성을 각각 추정하였다. 추정결과는 원유 현물가격이 변동할 경우 국내 정유사는 제품별 출고가격을 3개월에 걸쳐 조정하되 즉각적인 반응, 즉 해당 월의 조정액은 예상과는 달리 원유가격이 올라갈 때보다 오히려 내려갈 때에 더 크게 나타난다. 하지만 조정이 끝난 후, 누적 상승폭이 하락폭보다 크게 나타나 세 제품가격 모두 양적 비대칭을 보인다. 또한 환율상승에 대한 가격조정은 2개월이 소요되는 반면 하락시에는 1개월이 더 소요되는 것으로 추정된다. 경유와 등유는 누적 상승폭이 하락폭보다 훨씬 크게 나타나지만 휘발유는 상승폭과 하락폭이 동일하게 나타난다. 한편 주유소에 대한 정유사의 공급가격이 변동될 경우, 주유소 판매가격은 전형적인 'Rockets and Feathers' 현상을 보인다. 정유사 공급가격이 리터당 1원 상승 또는 하락할 경우, 휘발유가격은 0.99원의 인상과 0.91원의 인하를, 경유가격은 0.96원의 인상과 0.88원의 인하를 보여 휘발유가격이 경유가격보다 더 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 나타난다. 이는 승용차 연료인 휘발유가 대형승합차와 트럭의 연료로 사용되는 경유보다 소비자들에게 더 노출되어 있기 때문인 것으로 분석된다. 등유가격은 0.81원의 상승과 0.83원의 하락을 보여 검정 결과 양적 대칭으로 판명되었다. 이는 난방용 연료인 등유의 수요가 계절별로 편중되어 있고 또한 주유소판매량이 비교적 소량임에 따라 공급가격 변동에 대해 주유소가 즉각적으로 반응할 유인이 타 유종에 비해 상대적으로 적기 때문이다.
