The impact of financial crises on co-movements between commodity futures and equity prices : evidence from crude oil and gold markets
2017
Omaisuusluokkien välisillä korrelaatioilla on tärkeä rooli sijoitussalkun hajautusta ajatellen. Omaisuuslajien suojauksen kannalta erityisen tärkeää on tutkia, miten eri omaisuusluokat korreloivat kriisiperiodien aikana. Tässä Pro-Gradu -tutkielmassa tarkastellaan osakemarkkinakriisien vaikutusta hyödykefutuurien ja osakemarkkinatuottojen välisiin korrelaatioihin USA:n markkinoilla erityisesti raakaöljyn ja kullan osalta. Korrelaatioiden mallintamisessa hyödynnetään Cappiellon, Englen ja Sheppardin vuonna 2006 ehdottamaa yleistettyä diagonaalimuotoista DCC GARCH -mallia. Tutkimuksessa verrataan ehdollisten korrelaatioiden kehitystä erikseen USA:n osakemarkkinoiden yleisindeksin ja energiase…
Overreporting Oil Reserves
2009
An increasing number of oil market experts argue that OPEC members substantially overstate their oil reserves. While the economic implications could be dire, the incentives for overreporting remain unclear. This paper analyzes these incentives, showing that oil exporting countries may overreport to raise expected future supply, discourage oil-substituting R&D, and hence improve their future market conditions. Overreporting, however, comes at a cost since it must be backed by observable actions and therefore induces costly distortions of supply. Surprisingly, these latter can eliminate other distortions that arise regardless of information asymmetries in presence of endogenous technological …
Is the leadership of the Brent-WTI threatened by China's new crude oil futures market?
2020
Abstract The recent listing of a new crude oil futures contract on the Shanghai International Energy Exchange (INE) has reopened the debate over whether crude oil produced in different countries or locations constitutes a unified world oil market. The aim of this paper is to study the information flows among Brent, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and the new Medium Sour Crude Oil (SC) futures contract listed on INE futures markets to assess whether the trading of this new futures contract has altered the dominant role of the most traded oil benchmarks in the world. A multiple regression model identifies the Brent futures market as the most influential market in the oil price discovery process…
Artesanos emprendedores en la industria textil. Del taller al mercado. El caso del pelaire contestano Bernat Martí (1469-1482)
2014
El presente trabajo analiza la función de un sector del artesanado en el desarrollo y la consolidación de las comunidades pañeras del interior valenciano durante la segunda mitad del siglo XV. Tomando como referencia las comarcas del interior-sur del País Valenciano (la Vall d’Albaida, l’Alcoià y el Comtat, con pequeñas ciudades pañeras como Ontinyent, Alcoi y, especialmente, Cocentaina, donde centraremos nuestro estudio), se analiza cómo un pequeño grupo de artesanos tendía a centralizar y gestionar la actividad textil local mediante su participación directa en el mercado de la lana, tintes y aceite, también mediante el control de las fases de acabado del paño (tundido, abatanado, tintado)…
