The performance of four regression methods including enter, stepwise regression, backward deletion, and forward selection is measured by mean absolute error, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation at the validation stage. The study concludes that multiple linear regression model developed by stepwise method is the best model for the trade balance estimation. The model considers the following six significant variables: Exports of palm oil, imports of tubes, pipes, and fittings of iron or steel, exports of crude petroleum, imports of petroleum products, exports of plywood plain, and imports of rice. The regression model achieves a moderate value of model estimated accuracy (76.10%), mean absolute error (0.257), standard deviation (0.308), and linear correlation (0.851).","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114672639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, FFR owners need to find ways to control the demand of the market. Image is one of the drivers that influences customer satisfaction, behavior intention, trust, and loyalty. FFR owners should therefore take into account all possible attributes that may affect their image, before executing any improvement strategies. Unfortunately, the image evaluation attributes proposed in past scholarly works appear to be either incomprehensive or highly redundant to each other. This study thus aims at introducing a set of attributes, which are all-inclusive yet distinctive from one another other, which could be utilised by any future studies to evaluate the image of FFRs without too much revision. The study begins by extracting an initial list of image attributes by reviewing pertinent past literature. This tentative list was then verified via a two-round Delphi survey that was participated by 10 well-experienced fast-food restaurateurs. The contribution and limitation of the study are summarised in the conclusion section.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123241663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a perfect competition market, enterprises would formulate their pricing policies freely in line with the firms’ bottom line objectives. However, such practice by certain enterprises is hindered ever since the Malaysian government enacted the Competition Law in 2010 as legislation to regulate the competitiveness of the overall business environment with fair trades among enterprises. The competition law applies to all profit-making business organisations in Malaysia. Despite the Malaysian Competition Act 2010 has come into force on 1 January 2012, but to date, the awareness among the business enterprises are still very low. This can be evidenced from the total number of 362 cases being investigated by the Malaysia Competition Commission since 1 January 2012. In order to avoid any breaches of the law, understanding and complying seems the best remedy. The purpose of this paper is to explore the pricing policies prohibited under the Malaysian Competition Act 2010 and to enable the enterprises to grasp it with greater awareness and prevent future chances of infringements when implementing pricing policies. The research methods applied are by content analysis, Acts and case laws studies. It is concluded that the enterprises must comply with the Malaysian Competition Act 2010 stringent pricing policies.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114541016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilising ANOVA and T-test methods on questionnaires, empirical results suggest that investor sentiment on picking stocks is affected by economic and financial market forecasts. Also, investors tend to overreact on both positive and negative information resulting in over- and under-valuation in stock prices, respectively. Regarding personal characteristics, optimistic investors are inclined to overreact to positive information, which is affected by their personal attitude and available economic forecasts. In considering the sequence of information presented to non-professional investors, this study supports the “recency effect” phenomenon, where the latest economic and financial market information affect their stock buying and selling behaviour. In general, this study observes that when information is encountered in different forms and order, investor sentiment, personal characteristics and recall cause significant discrepancies in investing decisions. This research suggests that investors should be aware of their subjective behavioural biases, and that objective and careful decisions have to be exercised in picking stocks to maximise gains and minimise losses.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"412 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132341954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A drastic shift in recent years towards investment demand from jewellery demand reflects the concept that gold can be considered a safe haven asset in times of economic turmoil since investors construct their portfolios to include more gold as an alternative to riskier assets. This paper demonstrates the relevant theoretical dimensions of the gold investment during financial crises. Specifically, we exhibit how investor behaviour has the potential to support the safe haven property of gold. Evidence from this study shows that behavioural finance theories provide valuable contributions, and can aid in improving the understanding and the ability to make better decisions.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122384009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our empirical results show that, before the AFC, all countries, except the Philippines and Malaysia, experienced no evidence of Granger causality between the exchange rates and the stock prices. However, the appearance of the causality, but not the cointegration, between the capital and financial markets becomes stronger during the AFC period. Surprisingly, after the September 11 terrorist attack (911), the causality relationship between these two markets reverts back to normal as in the pre-AFC period and their cointegration relationship is weakened. From our findings, it can be inferred that: First, AFC has a bigger and more direct impact on the causality relationship between the financial and capital markets in Asia; Second, the 911 basically had no impact on the causality relationship between these two markets; and third, the Asian financial and capital markets have become more mature and efficient after the 911 crisis.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124045233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, increases in budget balances will lead to increases in external balances and increase in investment will lead to decreases in external balances. The results of the fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) estimator demonstrate about the same conclusion of the relationship between external balances and budget balances as the conclusion of the Johansen cointegration method.

Analyst report plays a significant role in recommending shares and disseminating market information to the investor. However, in the context of Malaysia, the analyst report tends to over-rely on quantitative information and statistical analyses in producing recommendations to investors. As a result, analyst report is deemed to have less predictive power from investors’ perspective. Using a semi-structured interview, we investigate the informational content of analyst report in Malaysia by conducting an in-depth interview with six respondents from institutional and retail investors. The findings from the interview reveal that the analyst report in Malaysia tends to disclose information based on simple statistical analyses to formulate recommendations, and tends to ignore other significant qualitative information. This study adds to the current literature by proposing an adaption of both quantitative and qualitative information as the mode of informational disclosure in the analyst report.","PeriodicalId":163324,"journal":{"name":"Labuan Bulletin of International Business and Finance (LBIBF)","volume":"191 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121314843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
