STUDY REGARDING THE MARKOWITZ MODEL OF PORTFOLIO SELECTION
2015
The Markowitz model was introduced through the work of Harry Markowitz (1952) and analyzes the risk and the rentability of a diversified portfolio of securities. In our research, we want to use the Markowitz model in order to identify the structure of the optimal portfolio of risky assets, in other words the efficient portofolio. The study, conducted on three romanian companies from the construction sector, listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange, leads to the conclusion that the portfolio is illegitimate, so it is necessary to sell the securities of the companies in the absence, procedure known as short sell.
NATIONAL COMPETITIVENESS - SCENARIOS FOR ROMANIA
2012
Competitiveness remains a continuous concern of nations in any stage of development, from factor based economy to innovation based economy. The present paper aims to emphasize the current level of national competitiveness of Romania, on one hand, and to identify possible ways to improve the current level by building scenarios in order to eliminate the uncertainty, on the other hand. The paper proposes four scenarios for increase GCI (growth competitiveness index) and four scenarios from pessimistic point of view (in these scenarios GCI will be decrease). In the near future, Romania must improve their pillars of national competitiveness and must increase their GDP per capita for transition p…
La puesta en escena y performatividad del turismo étnico en Los Altos de Chiapas
2018
En este trabajo se reflexiona sobre el turismo étnico y las visiones selectivas y particulares que tienen los turistas sobre la población indígena, calificada como diferente y exótica. La mirada constructiva del turista se combina con la necesidad de experimentar con la otredad para autentificar el viaje. Ello implica profundizar en los procesos que configuran los imaginarios étnicos dentro del mercado global del ocio, pero también en analizar el papel que adquieren las actividades performance como atracción turística. El trabajo quiere explorar la exhibición del cuerpo construido del indígena en el mercado turístico desde dos visiones: por un lado, el interés del cuerpo como patrimonio cul…
Recent climate change affecting rainstorm occurrences? A case study in East China
2008
The paper aims to investigate the occurrences of rainstorms and their relationship with the climate change scenario. The study period under investigation refers to the period of greatest recent warming between 1976–2000 whereas the study area covers China east of 105 E longitude. This region is commonly considered to be controlled by the monsoon type of climate over East Asia. <br><br> Positive (increasing) trends of rainstorm occurrences, both in annual and summer respects, have been shown for subtropical China whereas a non-uniform picture is associated with temperate China. The increase of rainstorms in subtropical China corresponds with an increasing trend of precipitation. …
De la sublimitat cortesa a l'efusió llibertina. L'altra cara de la «fin'amor»
2003
Review of satirical and obscene poetry, from the Galician/Portuguese and Provençal traditions to the «Cancionero de obras provocantes a risa» including Baena’s «Cancionero» and the «Cancionero General» by Hernando del Castillo. The author shows there is continuity in the use of these themes that is independent of their treatment and the rhetorical settings.The last pages are dedicated to the «Carajicomedia», the work of an author who is familiar with Valencia and perhaps with the milieu of Fenollar and company.
La macchina scenotecnica della visione: Robert Lepage e la sintesi tra meccanica e digitale nella messa in scena del Der ring des Nibelungen
2018
Robert Lepage impiega sulla sua scena tutti i dispositivi scenotecnici possibili, siano essi meccanici, elettrici o digitali, operando spesso con tecnologie che ricordano per la loro funzione le macchine scenotecniche del passato. Uno dei dispositivi più utilizzati da Robert Lepage, che connota gran parte della sua produzione, è la macchina girevole che costantemente modifica in tempo reale la scena. La macchina rotante non è però l’unico dispositivo che Lepage rimedia dalla scenotecnica teatrale. Muovendosi in una sorta di neo-barocco tecnologico, infatti, attinge a tutti quei dispositivi e macchine perfezionati nel XVII secolo da scenotecnici italiani, ibridandoli con nuove forme di dispo…
Contingent Convertible Bonds for Sovereign Debt Risk Management
2018
Abstract We consider convertible bonds that contractually stipulate payment standstill, contingent on a market indicator of a sovereign’s credit worthiness breaching a distress threshold. This financial innovation limits ex ante the likelihood of debt crises and imposes ex post risk sharing between creditors and the debtor. Drawing from literature on contingent contracts, neglected risks, and bank CoCo, we extend prevailing arguments in favor of sovereign CoCo (S-CoCo). We discuss issues relating to their design: which market trigger, market discipline and sovereign incentives, and errors of false alarms or missed crises, and provide supporting evidence with eurozone data and a simple simul…
Clinical Scenario: Unexpected Positive Nodes at Radical Cystectomy
2014
Positive lymph nodes are found in 20–30 % of patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer. Their presence is associated with poor survival in the majority. Super-extended lymph node dissection is recommended in the presence of positive lymph nodes to possibly improve oncologic outcome. In patients with unsuspicious lymph nodes, dissection should be performed at least up to the common iliac vessels. Even in the presence of lymph node metastases cystectomy is indicated to reduce local tumor complications. The type of urinary diversion should not be altered by lymph node positivity unless the diversion would otherwise negatively influence the extent of the procedure.
Economic Aspects in the Treatment of Schizophrenia in Italy: Cost Consequences of an Early Long-acting Injectable Anti-Psychotics (lais) Approach
2017
PurposeThe aim of this analysis was to evaluate the economic consequences of a new treatment approach in the treatment of schizophrenia in the Italian setting. In terms of direct costs, in Italy was estimated that the main driver were represented by hospitalization and residential cost (71% of total direct cost per patient), followed by semi-residential services (13%), anti-psychotic and other drugs (8%) and ambulatory services (8).MethodsA probabilistic cost consequence model was developed to estimate the potential cost reductions derived from an early treatment with atypical long-acting injectable anti-psychotics (aLAIs) drugs. A systematic literature review was carried out to identify di…
Evaluation of early and late histamine release by three standard volume substitutes
2001
Following meta-analysis [1], the use of colloidal solutions in intensive care medicine is under discussion. Although polygeline [2] and human albumin are known to cause histamine release, other substances eg hydroxyethyl starch were thought to be without effect. Histamine release depends on the clinical scenario, concomitant drugs, infusion speed, duration and amount of infusion. However, there is no information about their effect regarding time periods longer than immediate reactions. This study investigated the histamine releasing effects of three plasma substitutes administered and observed over a longer period of time, simulating many of the clinical scenarios.
