Japan's frozen shrimp future market is the only fisheries future commodity market in the world. This empirical study examines the lead and lag relationship between Japan frozen shrimp spot and future markets using the daily prices from August 1, 2002 to December 31, 2005. Frozen shrimp future contract is listed on Japan Kansai Commodities Exchange. Japan imports approximately 250,000 tons of frozen shrimp annually, of which just under 70,000 tons, nearly 30%, are black tiger shrimp. Approximately 90% of black tiger shrimp are caught in Indonesia, India, Thailand and Vietnam, and the two largest consumers of these shrimp are Japan and the U.S.A. Kansai Commodities Exchange adopts the India black tiger shrimp as standard future commodity. We use unit root test, Johansen cointegration test, Granger causality test, Vector autoregressive analysis and Impulse response analysis. However, considering the long - term relationships between the level variables of frozen shrimp spot and futures, we introduced Vector Error Correction Model. We find that the price change of frozen shrimp futures with next 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 month maturity have a strong predictive power to the change of frozen shrimp spot and the change of frozen shrimp spot also have a predictive power to the change of frozen shrimp with next 1, 2, 3 month maturity. But, the explanatory power of the frozen shrimp futures is relatively greater than that of frozen shrimp spot.

그 동안 소프트웨어 가격의 적합성에 대한 논의가 끊임없이 이어져왔다. 패키지 소프트웨어를 구매하는 소비자와 공급자 사이의 원만한 거래를 위해서는 시장에서 서로가 수긍할 수 있는 가격 결정 논리가 필요하다. 그러나 현실은 아직까지도 가격을 결정하는 요인들에 대한 정확한 기준이 없을 뿐만 아니라 산정방식에 대한 이해도 또한 부족하다. 이로 인해 공급회사들은 각기 다른 기준에 의해 소프트웨어 가격 산정을 하고 있으며, 소비자는 끊임없이 합당한 가격인가에 대한 의문을 던지고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 합당한 소프트웨어 가격을 산정하기 위한 다양한 요인들을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 한 패키지 소프트웨어 제품의 적정가격산정 모델을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다.

Hand phones are standard paraphernalia among university students. Factors that motivate them to own the gadget would be of interest to both the students as well as marketers. Hand phone usage is an unexamined field in academic literature, this exploratory study attempts to investigate student purchasing motives in cellular phone markets. It also intends to know the student's satisfaction with the different services and its future impact on socio economic changes. In this study, undergraduates (n=336) were requested to specify their purchase criteria of hand phone. The instrument used in the study to collect feedback from the respondents contains a combination of open-ended and scaled questions, and some background demographics. The study employed content analysis, Pearson's correlation, and t-tests as the primary tools to analyze the responses. Results show that brand was rated as the most important factor in student purchase decisions. Other factors, arranged in decreasing order of importance comprise price, product quality, features, durability, availability, promotion, and post purchase service. Brand and price correlated significantly. It is also observed that there is very little difference regarding preference between brand and price in purchasing a hand phone. Marketers may formulate suitable strategies out of the findings to promote hand phones to university undergraduates in Malaysia by emphasizing at brands and price.

빅데이터 시대에 정보의 양이 급증하고, 그중 많은 부분을 차지하는 문자열 정보를 정량화하여 의미를 찾아 낼 수 있는 인공지능 방법론이 함께 발전하면서, 텍스트 마이닝을 통해 주가 예측에 적용해 온라인 뉴스로 주가를 예측하려는 시도가 다양해지고 있다. 이러한 주가 예측의 방법은 대개 예측하고자 하는 기업의 뉴스로 주가를 예측하는 방식이다. 하지만 특정 회사의 뉴스만이 그 회사의 주가에 영향을 주는 것이 아니라, 그 회사와 관련성이 높은 회사들의 뉴스 또한 주가에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 그러나 관련성이 높은 기업을 찾는 것은 시장 전반의 공통적인 영향과 무작위 신호 때문에 쉽지 않다. 따라서 기존 연구들은 주로 미리 정해진 국제 산업 분류 표준에 기반을 둬 관련성이 높은 기업을 찾았다. 하지만 최근 연구에 따르면, 국제 산업 분류 표준은 섹터에 따라 동질성이 다르며, 동질성이 낮은 섹터는 그들을 모두 함께 고려하여 주가를 예측하는 것이 성능에 악영향을 줄 수 있다는 한계점을 가진다. 이러한 한계점을 극복하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 주가 예측 연구에서 처음으로 경제물리학에서 주로 사용되는 무작위 행렬 이론을 사용하여 시장 전반 효과와 무작위 신호를 제거하고 군집 분석을 시행하여 관련성이 높은 회사를 찾는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한, 이를 기반으로 관련성이 높은 회사의 뉴스를 함께 고려하며 다중 커널 학습을 사용하는 인공지능 모형을 제시한다. 본 논문의 결과는 무작위 행렬 이론을 통해 시장 전반의 효과와 무작위 신호를 제거하여 정확한 상관 계수를 찾아 군집 분석을 시행한다면 기존 연구보다 더 좋은 성능을 보여 준다는 것을 보여준다.

Purpose - Since 1990, the sudden stop in capital flows has caused the economic crisis. The purpose of this research is to suggest the policy measures to mitigate the risk of the sudden stop in capital flows. To this end, we examine the theoretical framework and analyze the case study for countries which are faced with the sudden stop. Also we examine the structural problems of the foreign exchange market in Korea and derive the policy implications to prevent the sudden stop. Research design, data, and methodology - The criteria of whether the sudden stop in capital flows occurs are based upon Calvo et al. (2008). In case the proxy variable for the balance of capital account decreases from the average by over twice standard deviation, we determine that the sudden stop occurs for that country. The sample period is from January 1990 to December 2008, as in Calvo (2014). The sample countries are 17 developed countries and 19 emerging market countries, which are different from those of the previous papers as Agosin and Huaita (2012), and Calvo (2014). When the exchange market pressure index(EMPI) is deviated from the average by over three times standard deviation, we determine that the foreign exchange market is unstable for that country. Results - We find that the characteristics of the sudden stop in capital flows are the bunching or contagion among countries, the rapid drop in real effective exchange rate, and the huge decrease in foreign exchange reserves. Many countries tried to increase foreign exchange reserves and regulate capital flows. Also the foreign exchange market in Korea are found to be the volatile exchange rate, the vulnerable external debt and careless management of the foreign exchange derivatives transaction risk. Conclusions - To lessen the risk in the sudden stop of capital flows, this research suggests the some useful policy measures. To enhance the foreign exchange and distribution market stability, we should improve the price mechanism of exchange rate, hold the appropriate level of foreign exchange reserves, prevent excessive inflows of foreign exchange and promote sound transactions of foreign exchange derivatives.

This paper develops and defends the concept of reference-quality in consumer choice, demonstrating its impact on aggregated market demand. The concept of reference-quality refers to an internal standard against which observed qualities are compared in consumer choice behavior. In doing so, we examine and reveal the formation mechanism and the structure of reference-quality in the U.S. wireless phone market. Consequently, we recognize and introduce a brand-specific reference both in price and product quality in aggregated product demand which enable us to measures the responsiveness of market demand to the innovation of a certain brand.

This study explores the impact of stochastic volatility in option pricing. To be more specific, we compare the option pricing performance between stochastic volatility option pricing model, namely, Heston option pricing model and standard Black-Scholes option pricing. Our finding, based on the market price of SET50 index option between May 2011 and September 2020, demonstrates stochastic volatility of underlying asset return for all level of moneyness. We find that both deep in the money and deep out of the money option exhibit higher volatility comparing with out of the money, at the money, and in the money option. Hence, our finding confirms the existence of volatility smile in Thai option markets. Further, based on calibration technique, the Heston option pricing model generates smaller pricing error for all level of moneyness and time to expiration than standard Black-Scholes option pricing model, though both Heston and Black-Scholes generate large pricing error for deep-in-the-money option and option that is far from expiration. Moreover, Heston option pricing model demonstrates a better pricing accuracy for call option than put option for all level and time to expiration. In sum, our finding supports the outperformance of the Heston option pricing model over standard Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Purpose - This study investigates how earnings volatility influences current stock price informativeness about expectations of future earnings. Design/methodology/approach - I adopt the FERC model developed by Collins et al. (1994) and modified by Lundholm and Myers (2002) to investigate the connection between earnings volatility and future earnings reflected in current returns. I define five-year rolling standard deviations of earnings and components as earnings volatility measures and the degree of deviation of earnings from cash flows over the same five-year, which is developed by Jayaraman (2008). Finding - My results show that earnings volatility delays current stock price response to future operation expectations. They also verify that as earnings are more divergent from cash flows, current returns are less timely incorporating value-relevant future operation. Research implications or Originality This study shows that when volatile earnings deliver obscure and unreliable information about future operation expectations, they cause the market to be conflicting in understandings their implications and make it difficult in attaining correct future cashflow estimates.

The investment in solar and wind generation is rapidly increasing with government's renewable expansion policy and Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS). Since the large penetration of solar and wind generation increases the variability and uncertainty of supply and demand balance in power system, the government is pursuing the policy of supplying energy storage system (ESS) linked to renewable energy. ESS contributes to the ease of transmission and distribution grid by shifting PV generation from daytime to evening hours. Recently, the declining market price of REC as ESS incentive, policies to cut down incentives and limited ESS storage due to fire events lead to the aggravation of long-term profitability, thus working as a barrier of ESS spreading. In this study, the factors affecting the profit of ESS are analyzed and brief indicators are derived. Based on the indicators, the profit changes are analyzed considering the variation of REC market price and REC incentive weights. Based on the profit change with respect to the increase of ESS capacity, economical ESS installation capacity is suggested.
