This study proposes a deep learning based hybrid approach combining convolutional neural network (CNN), attention mechanism (AM), and gated recurrent unit (GRU) to predict short-term market trends (1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 10 days) across different stock indices (BSE, HSI, IXIC, NIFTY, N225, SSE). The architecture dynamically weights the input sequence with the AM model, captures local patterns through CNN and effectively models long-term dependencies with GRU thus aiming to accurately classify either \"<i>buy</i>\" or \"<i>sell</i>\" positions of stocks. The model is assessed using classification and financial evaluation metrics involving accuracy, precision, recall, f1-score, annualized returns, maximum drawdown, and return on investment. It outperforms benchmark models, and different technical indicators including average directional index, rate of change, moving average convergence divergence, and the buy-and-hold strategy, demonstrating its effectiveness in various market conditions. The proposed model achieves an average accuracy of 98% in predicting the 1 day-ahead direction, and an average accuracy of 88.53% across all prediction intervals. The model was also validated using the wilcoxon signed rank test that further supported its significance over the benchmark models. The CAG model presents a comprehensive and intuitive approach to stock market trend prediction, with potential applications in real-world asset decision-making.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54095,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Financial Markets","volume":"32 2","pages":"583 - 608"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141507964","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}

As one of the most typical quanto derivatives in the world, the CME Nikkei futures is traded in dollars while the underlying Nikkei index is traded in yen. The special characteristic involves more complicated uncertainties, which necessitate an investigation into its profitability and efficiency. To this end, we construct an arbitrage-free quanto pricing model to examine the mispricing of the CME Nikkei futures and the underlying spot prices for potential arbitrage opportunities. Distinguishing an ex-post trading rule from an ex-ante trading rule, we conduct non-parametric moving block bootstrap simulations to test the significance of profitability in the CME. The results show insignificant ex-post profitability but significant ex-ante profitability before and after the 2008 global financial crisis. Moreover, delayed execution significantly impacts the futures profitability. Profitable arbitrage opportunities are confirmed by implied transaction costs and explained by lagged absolute mispricing, lagged error, futures time to maturity, stock volatility, and trading volume in the CME. These findings have important implications for practitioners in their cross-border arbitrage trades, and for policy makers in their regulation of quantos in futures globalization.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54095,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Financial Markets","volume":"32 2","pages":"743 - 771"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141382314","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}

This comparative analysis aims to discern how the strategic use of derivatives influences firm valuation across varying economic conditions. Analyzing 712 firm-year observations during the pandemic and extending to 1735 observations in the pre-COVID era, our findings reveal that while foreign exchange and interest rate derivatives consistently enhance firm value, the use of commodity derivatives exhibits a complex relationship with firm value, becoming notably negative during the pandemic. This suggests that derivatives’ effectiveness in risk management and value preservation is contingent upon both the type of derivative and the economic context. Our research underscores the critical role of derivatives in navigating financial uncertainties, offering nuanced insights that enrich our understanding of firm-level risk management strategies in both stable and turbulent times.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54095,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Financial Markets","volume":"32 2","pages":"381 - 445"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141255747","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}

Second, the development of DIF mainly promotes FI through digital payment, credit, and insurance; this, in turn, indirectly promotes farmers’ income through regional economic growth agglomeration characteristics of “low–low.” Third, the development of DIF plays a vital role in the income structure, promoting wage, property, and transfer income.

The study used content analysis, independent t-test, and multiple linear regression analysis. The content analysis results highlighted that the majority of the SR funds adopt the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) integration approach, invest in large-cap, high-growth companies with good ESG score, and have an investment committee. The comparative analysis indicated that out of 14 SR funds, only four funds outperformed their benchmark index.

The current study contributes to SRI literature by identifying the differentiating characteristics of the Indian SR funds. It also contributes to the extant literature a comparative analysis, assessing the performance of the SR funds with their benchmark index. Further, determining the impact of the market return and the Covid-19 outbreak on the returns of SR fund is also a contributing factor of the present study.

This is intuitive because the futures market is more sensitive to new information than its counterpart due to differences in cost and liquidity.

Utilizing data from all non-financial firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, the study employs a robust methodology to control for potential endogeneity and reverse causality issues commonly encountered in corporate governance research. The findings reveal a dominance of family firms in the Pakistani market, holding majority control over boards and decision-making processes. Contrary to expectations, these corporate boards and family ownership structures do not contribute to the reduction of crash risk. However, the presence of block ownership indicates that institutional investors are predominantly short-term participants. In alignment with previous research, institutional investors in this context tend to play a passive and negative role in monitoring firms. Rather than applying monitoring pressure, they exhibit a tendency to exit, further contributing to price reductions and subsequent crashes. These insights underscore the necessity for market regulators to develop a corporate governance framework that not only ensures investor protection but also encourages firms to diminish information asymmetry through improved disclosure and transparency practices.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54095,"journal":{"name":"Asia-Pacific Financial Markets","volume":"32 2","pages":"691 - 709"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141119801","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}
